Customer Reviews of Duro-Med Universal Walker Glides
Customer Review: Rosie Mae loves them!
Summary: 5 Stars
My mother (Rosie Mae)has chronic pain in several areas of her body and has had to use a walker for the past 3 years, and she also has an electronic pain control mechanism implanted in her back. When she first got her walker, it had plastic inserts in the rear legs, but then, one of them popped out and was lost "somewhere". Many people told her to use tennis balls, but I was wondering how to handle her using her walker outside and cleaning those dirty tennis balls afterwards. I logged on and entered the words "walker accessories" in the search bar. When I saw these "walker glides" I thought first about the design..curved like a ski. Perfect! I got the glides and put them on her walker, she took off! "Hey, I like these here!", she said. My joy comes in making my Mom comfortable and happy in whatever way I can, and the walker glides definitely made an impression on both of us. She's still in much pain, and on serious pain medication, but at least she can move smoothly about when she needs to. [...].Customer Review: Fewer rugs pulled up
Summary: 4 Stars
After my hip replacement, I had to use a walker to get around for 6 weeks. I the standard glider feet on my walker wore down rapidly, and I had trouble walking into stores with the walker's back feet catching on the rugs just inside the door and pulling them up. I replaced the original gliders with these. They were great. I slid right over most of the rugs and carpets just inside the doors. A few still caught, but it was much better. The only problem I had was doing my physical therapy involved walking down the street and back. After about 3-4 weeks of walking outdoors on the sidewalk and street, every day for at least 30 minutes the gliders had worn a little thin and needed replacing.Customer Review: Wonderful Service and speedy delivery
Summary: 5 Stars
Who'd a thunk... being able to obtain the Duro-med Universal Walker Glides from Amazon (or through Amazon). The product was delivered at a rather rapid pace AND put to work immediately. The Product is sturdy BUT after much use on a walker they DO need to be replaced and it is a great pleasure AND service to be able to find them at this site AND at a relatively better price than from most medical supply stores. For any one using a walker these gliders work so much better than the "Tennis Balls" that many people put on the rear stands.Customer Review: Skis are incredible...
Summary: 5 Stars
The skis are incredible. Even get a chuckle from friends. They glide over most surfaces and seem to be wearing very well. Since my walker has become my best friend, I am very happy. My husband dreaded replacing the tennis balls and they just did not wear too well. Well worth the money and cheaper than the drug store
that sells a lot of medical equipment. The skis are universal and work well on my Nova Walker.
Customer Review: Walker Glides for the win
Summary: 5 Stars
These things are great. Especially if you move around a lot. They last 50x longer than tennis balls(my educated guess). They glide over every surface very easily. The way they are designed make it safer for you because it stabilizes the walker so it cannot go backwards. Otherwise, not much more to say. They work as advertised and they are a lot cheaper than other glides on this site!
