Standard Walkers
Front wheeled walkers, also known as mobility walkers or folding walkers, can be used anywhere that can accommodate enough space to maneuver properly. If you have trouble lifting the standard walkers, a light weight walker may be helpful when traveling in a personal vehicle or public transportation. These walkers come in different materials and colors such as steel or silver.
Bariatric Walkers
A bariatric front wheeled walker, commonly refered to as a heavy duty walker, will be able to support weights of up to 500 lbs. Some come with 5 dual front wheels. These types of walkers have a wider, deeper frame and easy push-button mechanisms which may be utilized with fingers, palms, or the side of your hand. The precise design of the frame provides additional strength while adding minimal weight.
Standard and bariatric walkers may help in a wide array of situations. Quite often, these inexpensive models will be someone’s first choice due to their familiarity and simplicity. We hope that this guide will help you find and determine what you are looking for. Find your perfect walker with Easy Fold Mobility Today.
