Rolling Walkers with Seats
Dr. Bruno’s Original Post:
SEATED WALKERS
I know. “Seated walker” is an oxymoron. And so are most walkers with seats. You want support when you walk and a solid seat when you need a break. The problem is most walkers with seats have bars in the back to hold up the seat. Those bars prevent you from getting your body “inside” the wheelbase and handles of the walker. You end up having to lean forward so you don't hit your shins or knees on the seat support bars.
There are a very few walkers with a long wheelbase and adjustable handles that allow you to walk “inside” the frame and be supported, e.g., the Lumex Walkabout Allura/Allura LX Rollator (LX5000LX-3T) .
Less expensive is the OasisSpace Lightweight Aluminium Rollator Walker.
