(More customer reviews)The one I have is virtually identical in construction to this one, but I bought it from the Dr. Leonard's catalogue of stuff for old folks and other sufferers (pleasure-seekers, too; don't ask). They're online at drleonards.com, and now sell theirs for around $75 (mine was $100 when I bought it a year ago). Theirs also has an additional basket that has to be taken off when you're making yourself more acceptable by handily folding the rollator inside a car, bus, cafe or wherever. But that basket is so handy for groceries, etc., that I see it as necessary. Three wheels as opposed to four has already made you a more welcome visitor, able to get into most places more easily, though without the bonus "seat' you get on most four wheelers. I haven't missed that seat yet, and have found the only problem with three wheels is that your lonesome front wheel can surprise you by slipping into a sidewalk crack that stops the rollator in its tracks -- thus delivering a jolt that could easily turn into a fall. I wrote that last sentence carefully, because if my daughter had read one like it, she might have talked me out of buying mine, in which case my life would not have been saved, and it truly has. Anyway, 3-wheel rollator owners (and I'm not real sure about you 4-wheel folks) must always be on pre-alert for "the Front-Wheel Jolt." Once you've had such a Jolt, you'll see why. But armed with foresight, you'll look for all the world like you expected the next one before it happened, which I hope and trust will always be true of me and thee. Here's one suggestion for whoever's designing next year's model (like my neighbor Tucker Viemeister, maybe?): Why not make that front wheel bigger, thus making it that much harder for a smaller crack to trap it? Of course, a bigger wheel would probably cut down the storage space afforded by the basket or baskets. A great loss, every square inch of it, but in a very worthy cause. But please, Mr. Designer, save as much basketing as you can. And meanwhile, other 3-wheeled rollator drivers, remember that curbs can be especially dangerous Jolting sites, and that avoiding all sidewalk cracks is a good idea, even if many of them are completely harmless.
