Rollin’ Rollin’ Rollin’
Back up tell me what you’re gonna do now. I got kind of punked with the first delivery rollator in an open box, and the rollator was stuck in the folded position. My return and replacement rollator request got processed quickly. Only hassle was taping closed the open box for shipping, and waiting in time window for porch pickup by UPS. Return got confirmed to me several days later. Movin’ on.My replacement Nitro Sprint rollator was delivered in a fully sealed box one day after the return pickup and two days after Santa consumed the milk and cookies I left for him under the tree in my home. The Drive bag was better quality and easier to zip compared to the bag that came with the rollator I had returned.It was somewhat stiff to unfold the replacement rollator for the first time, but I’ve been rollin’ rollin’ rollin’ ever since. Smooth steering requires both hands for precise maneuvering control which is great. Brakes work the way they should, and adjust well. The toe pedals are a little small but nonetheless can help stabilize the rear wheel while I’m pushing down on the handles to raise the front wheels up and over curbs and similar obstacles. All of the rollator adjustment features are effective and relatively easy to use.The seat is comfortable as is sitting on the folding handle. I always follow the extremely important safety warning to NEVER SIT AND ROLL.I’m glad I had also purchased the cup/phone holder accessory. It is real handy to have, and there are several places to attach the holder to the rollator.I like the bright red color of the frame I got. It makes the rollator very noticeable in the pedestrian mode of use. I find the quality of materials and construction to be top-notch, and the functionality of the rollator is superb. The rollator is worthy of the reasonable investment I made to improve my mobility and help prevent falls.

Excellent quality – glad I bought it
This is a quality product, worth paying a little more. It has a lot of extras on it that others don’t. Came with no assembly needed. Just adjust height, etc. The full back support is comfortable and supportive. Padded seat. 3-way braking system.

Great walker – a little shorter than previous model
My husband has used the Drive Nitro walker tall walker for at least 5-6 years. He prefers it to the walker he originately got from medicare (we use it as a back up now). The only problem we have had is that the brakes wear out and they are so difficult to replace that we have had to get a new walker about every 3 years. The brakes of the old walker gave out yesterday and when our son-in-law tightened them a bit (like he has done before when the gave out), the brake wire broke.We ordered this newer version of the Nitro and we are very hopeful the newer brake configuration will last longer.We decided to order the newer version in blue. My husband likes it – he said the walker feels solid, is easy to maneuver and the new break+handle configuration seem good. I like that it is still light and the way it folds and stays folded when I put it in the carHe has only two issues with this new walker. There are 2 curb assist pads on the inside of the frame by the back wheels taking up room for his size 14 feet – the previous version had only one and he had to be careful because did get scratched because of that placement when he got in and out of the car (he has no feeling in his feet because of diabetes). He is concerned because there are now two – and frankly he doesn’t see what use they are since to use them he has to try to balance on one foot to push on it to raise the front of the walker and that is a dangerous maneuver for him.The other reason that I took a star off is that the top handles of this version of the tall Nitro walker are about 1.5″ shorter when FULLY extended than the previous (red tall Nitro) walker. We raised the handles as far as they could go and stood this walker next to the old one and there is a noticable height difference. Even though this walker is also considered tall, the difference could be and issue if anyone needs the extra height. My husband is 6’3″ and even though he noticed the difference in height immediately he feels he can adapt.

Very sturdy and easy to use, yet light enough for comfort and ease. It comes fully assembled so all you need to do is adjust the height to your comfort. The height adjustment is incredibly easy to use with an easy push button release and large white numbers on a black background to assist those with low vision needs. The seat is padded and comfortably wide. The backrest is wide for lower and mid-back support and has an oblong viewing port for safety while walking. The brakes have three settings; on, off and slight resistance for downhill control. This will not run away from/with you when walking downhill.No exposed brake cables means no snagging and no stumbling or tripping. The wheels are large and solid (no flat tires here!) with a silicone-like coating to roll easily over lawns and sidewalks alike. There are small rubber feet to assist in tilting the rollerator up or down for sidewalk curbs or small bumps. The ends of the hand grips have round red reflectors that face to your rear for added visibility at night.All of the features are carefully thought out to create a very satisfying user experience. It even has a visually pleasing shape and colour – I ordered the blue model. This is not the cheapest rollerator out there, nor is it the most expensive. I would be hard pressed to suggest any improvements to the design at all, with the exception of an included mobile phone holder. A mobile phone holder is available from this manufacturer, but must be purchased separately. I did purchase this little extra and find it very handy indeed.I would not hesitate to purchase this product again if mine was ever stolen or lost. I would not hesitate to purchase this for a loved one, either.

Very well made, not too heavy easily fits into the car and my wife finds it easy to use.

I feel safe using this walker. High end features and buid quality. You will not regret buying this wonderfull product.
