Customer Reviews of Medline Freedom Rollator - Burgundy
Customer Review: Will not work for someone 6 feet tall
Summary: 1 Stars
Despite what the product description indicates, this walker simply will not work for someone who is 6 feet tall (the information on the page claims it can be adjusted for someone up to 6'2"). I was so disappointed when the walker arrived and I put it together, with the help of a professionally licensed physical therapist. I'd intended to give this walker to my 87-year-old grandfather as a present. But no matter what we tried, we couldn't get the walker to adjust to anything like an appropriate height for someone of his stature.
Even to grasp the hand grips, my grandfather would have had to stoop -- just what we're trying to avoid. Even the instructions in the included booklet indicated adjustments only up to a height well below 6 feet (I believe it was 5'7", but I returned the instructions with the walker and thus cannot reference them now).
I also did not find the walker to be particularly sturdy. The wheels are small and did not absorb shock well. I tried to use the walker just to see how it felt (I am 5'2", 35 years old, and do not need a walker) and was surprised at how unstable it was, unlike other walkers my grandfather has used. Even the seat was smaller than on other walkers!
I ultimately had to disassemble and return this item. Part of the reason I purchased it was the outstanding reviews here, so I just wanted to make sure to share my experience. It may well be that for some, this is a great product, but I did not find that to be the case. Safety and comfort are paramount with these types of products, and in my experience, both were lacking here.
