Medline Lightweight Junior/Lower Height Folding Walker with 5” Wheels

This is a first-class product. I needed this for a person who is 4'11" and it fits perfectly. I almost did not order because of some wonky reviews (pieces missing, 2 "left wheels", and sundry other things), but I am glad I did order it! I put it together without looking at the instructions. Turns out the instructions are not great, but there is not really much to the installation anyway. Pull all of the pieces out of the box/packaging and then open up the top half of the walker (the top half is fully assembled by itself). Fold out the arms of the top-half and set it on the floor before you start, and it will orient you to how things go together (2 wheels to the front, 2 non-wheel tubes to the rear). IMPORTANT NOTES based upon some of the comments I read prior to ordering: 1. There are white inserts in the tubes. These are NOT to be removed. Leave as is. The tubes will slide right over them. 2. While the rear NON-wheel tubes can go either on the right-side or left-side, the WHEELED tubes have a dedicated right-side or left-side. The WHEELED tubes can only go on one dedicated side. Firstly, the wheels must be to the outside. And the way you can tell if they are right-side or left-side is determined by the location of the adjustment holes and the push-button height adjusters (sounds more complicated than it is. Hard to put into words). They only work one way, so you can't really make a mistake. 3. Use the same adjustment holes all the way around, so it will be level. In my case, I started all four tubes in hole #4. Then size from there for the person who will use it. See the instructions for more details on sizing, and safety. ______ Bottom line, once put together, it is a VERY solid product. Two simple push-buttons quickly and easily collapse the walker. It is very sturdy while still being lightweight. Great value. Warrants more than 5 stars but that's all I can give!

Bought this for my mom after a bad fall and a time in rehab. She is very short so this worked perfectly. The walker itself is very sturdy and easy to put together and set to the proper height. It worked well for her when she needed the extra help for balance. Now she moved on to a cane. This walker came recommended from the physical therapist. She gave me the Amazon item number. It was a necessary and good purchase at the time.

It is good to Travel with because it folds up and it’s affordable and easy to grip onto for balance. I use it for mobility and exercise to as well. I recommend this walker for walking and flexibility for exercise for everyone. Thanks

I needed a walker to help with my knee replacement surgery recovery. I'm 4' 11" tall. Most walkers are too tall and too wide for me. Due to some knee buckling right after my surgery, I really needed a walker that was suited for my height and width. This walker fit the bill. There are 7 holes, spaced about an inch apart, on each leg. The push button peg is easy to use and slips into the hole that fits your height best. Once I had the walker adjusted to my height, I found the walker to be sturdy and reliable. I also ordered separately, some walker gripper pads and glides to make it more comfortable to grip the walker and walk on carpets/tile. But the walker gripper pads and glides aren't a necessity. More of a luxury. The walker is really easy to fold and store. I plan on keeping it in the trunk of my car for those times when I'm running errands and my knee tires out on me.

WHO: I bought this walker for my 10 year old son who had a spine infection. He's 4'10". WHY: He gets pain flares on and off even though he is on antibiotics. WHAT: He had used one similar at the Hospital with the button fold, however the hospital one was made of Aluminum and lighter weight. This one will work too because he will be putting his backpack on it and it looked stable when we tried it out. WHERE: He is going to use it both at home and at school and wherever we go. However, our home was built in the 1950's and it doesn't fit two doors, including the bathroom door and second bedroom door. They are both 24 inches wide, he was able to go through them sideways. WHEN: I ordered on 2-2-19 We just received it in the mail today, 2-5-19. HOW: The directions are two pages and in multiple languages. The button to fold the walker is closer to the sides but was easy to fold. I will probaby install some tennis balls on the bottom to help it slide easier, for now we are trying it as is I gave it 4 Stars because it works, however it is not the one pictured. Update-2-9-19: It needs tennis balls or something else if using outside. The concrete eats through legs. It also wore down the tennis ball's felt. The rubber on tennis ball is helping it grip well.

Very easy to put together. All you need to do is put the wheels on and adjust to the height that you want. Also it folds which is very handy when traveling. The physical therapist recommended putting the wheels on the inside to give more clearance and it worked great. For reference this was for an elderly woman 5' 3". I noticed that some companies they are too tall but this one worked perfectly for an elderly woman. It's sturdy, quiet, and of good quality. I highly recommend this product.

Since I am shorter than most of my friends (5ft 0), I couldn't borrow a walker when I got a hip replacement. This youth model worked perfectly. It is economical, easy to fold/unfold, and fit in a car. A minor issue for me is that it unfolds very easily, making it a bit tricky to carry. Still, that is better than wrestling to unfold the thing when you need it. Since I only needed it for a week or so and it doesn't have a basket, I attached a tote bag to the front so I could transport things like my laptop. Great for the self-esteem to be able to carry personal items myself, rather than asking for help constantly.

My mom is 4'8" and her physical therapist was SO happy to see this, as my mom had to shrug her shoulders up to her ears to use standard-height devices. Ski gliders: long story short, if you can't fit standard 1 and 1/8" glider caps onto the end of your walker becase the pre-installed end caps are too fat and you can't figure out how to remove them, just wait unti the pre-installed end caps wear out (will be fast if on rough concrete) and then just use any other standard ski glider. Long story: other reviews say the tubing is too thin for standard gliders, but on mine (bought in May 2026) the plastic end caps that came already built into this walker were actually too fat to slip a standard glider over. I didn't see a way to remove them. I searched for extra large gliders (bigger than 1 and 1/8 inch) and could not find any. Thankfully another reviewer said they called MedLine and they told them what gliders would work, so I did that and Medline indeed was very helpful, but those are still just standard gliders that slip into the end of the 1" tube rather than slipping over the outside of the tube. So if I knew how to remove the original end caps, I could insert these. However, I then realized that my mom had already worn through the pre-installed gliders so they were no longer in the way, and I could slip the standard-sized ski gliders over the end of the tube (or, install the Medline ones). SHORT CANE and ROLLATOR: In case helpful, I also found a small cane ("Short Self Standing Cane With 4 Feet" - it broke quickly so i had to get a second one, but it's the only tiny cane I've found, so I'm willing to do that). But I could not find a small rollator (frustratingly, many market themselves as small, but all are really about the same - about 32" at the smallest).

The product was easy to unpack and assemble. It feels sturdy and has been working well so far. Since I use it on a carpeted floor, I replaced the original non-slip feet with easy-glide ones to improve mobility. After making that adjustment, it has performed as expected. So far, I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Légère et facile à transporter

Cette fois la deuxième livraison même item tout est excellent. Je recommande ce produit à 100 % Ce commentaire était lors du 1 er envoi pour une livraison incomplète malgré les deux attaches tout autour de l’ensemble des pièces . Incompréhensible car visiblement facile à vérifier une seule roue pour un simple montage.En plus le délai de livraison a été long! Il existe deux couleurs et je reçois la couleur qui est moins chère alors que l’autre était commandée .Il manquait aussi une barre arrière à 8 ajustements. Le produit est robuste et fiable. Je commande une autre de remplacement pour samedi.

très facile à ajuster et solide .
