Vive Walker Ski Glides & Covers 4 PCS - Tennis Ball Accessories Sliders for Seniors, Universal, Heavy Duty - Precut Medical Folding Rolling Slider Replacement Feet Coaster Cap Gliders, Durable

My wife's Guardian front wheel walker came with polymer caps on the back legs. Two days ago one fell off, both had worn away exposing the aluminum tube leg! She had only used them for 4 months, only about 5 or 10 minutes outdoors on pavement a couple of times a week. And she is not heavy but wore the caps through before we knew it. BE SURE YOU ORDER THESE SKI GLIDES BEFORE THE CAP ON YOURS WEARS THROUGH. LOOK AT THE CAP. I ordered these when we got home and they came two days later. I am impressed: quality durable thick polyethylene, well designed, robust locking wedge securely holds these glides in the leg and ar, easy to install. BUT!!! I had a problem because the caps put on by Guardian/Drive contained plastic posts inside the hollow leg that had to be removed before I could install the new Vive Glides. Not so easy, totally flat surface with nothing to grab hold of to pull them out. I had to drill into the plastic plug to get them out out. Then the VIVE Ski Glides slipped right in and it was simple to tighten the Phillips screw pulling up the wedge and anchoring the glides tightly in the leg. They glide effortlessly across carpet, hardwood, linoleum, tile. And will be much smoother on pavement. Be sure to get them tight enough to prevent the glide from rotating. PLEASE READ ALL THE INFORMATION ON THIS PRODUCT PAGE AND IN THE SMALL INSTRUCTION SHEET THAT COMES WITH THESE VIVE SKY GLIDES! Many reviewers have not done so. THE FABRIC COVERS ARE FOR INDOOR USE ONLY! DO NOT USE THEM OUTDOORS. THIS IS STATED IN THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AS WELL AS THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT COME WITH THE GLIDES. They can tear in one day on pavement. I recommend these for everyone who uses a front wheeled walker. This is much better than tennis balls and look a lot better too.

Works well and easy to assemble.

The added ski feet add to stability and do not mark our slate floor like the original walker feet began to do. They were easy to install, but do need to be screwed in tightly. The covers are excellent for the hardwood floors, not only for protecting the floor, but they are not slippery on the hardwood as the skis alone are. I gave only a 4 since both slippers pulled apart at a side seam. I mended them with carpet and buttonhole thread so I could continue using them. The slippers need to be taken off when going outside, especially for concrete or blacktop. My husband did that for me.

These little sliders work like a champ. I keep the booties on while in the house and easily navigating over hardwood floors, lightweight carpet and plush carpet. Remove the booties and you are ready for the street and sidewalks. The raised front of the slider can only accommodate a small rise in the walking surface, so be aware of that and you will be fine. Taking the booties on and off were pretty easy, much like putting on a sock. Be sure to really tighten th screw holding the slider in place, otherwise through vibrations it will want to spin on the shaft of the walker. Would buy again if this pair wears out.

Very nice quality, and sturdy. These didnt fit the particular walker I currently have. I decided to donate them so if someone could use them, they would be readily available .

Had to use a walker after knee replacement surgery and my physical therapist suggested sliders for the walker instead of tennis balls. I like that these came with covers since I have all hardwood floors at home. No scratching!!! I take the covers off when I use it outside.

Worked well for about a week or 1 days before it wore out.

These look so much better than tennis balls. Not hard to install, just remove any rubber feet, etc. so you have the bare tube on the bottom, tighten the screws (tight enough to prevent movement but not so tight to risk breaking the plastic) and voila! For indoor use I also installed the "booties" over the glides to prevent possibly scratching the hardwood floor. The booties also offer an additional benefit in that they provide a little resistance on the floor, like the tennis balls do. The glides seem very sturdy. The booties are made of a tough fabric-like material with elastic to hold them on the glides, I don't think the booties would come off easily. I would use the glides with booties indoors and remove the booties for use outside. I'm very satisfied with these and they look so much better than the tennis balls.

Easy to install, work great and slide with the booties. Cuts down noise too.

These little ski feet are brilliant for Zimmer frames. They make moving around very much easier both on carpet and hard floors. Highly recommend.

Both my parents have walking frames, and both struggled with the pushing the frame over carpets. Now with these ski's it's no problem at all, well worth the money. They have made walking about so much easier. Easy to install, and sturdy.

I bought these for my uncle’s Walter he uses in the card home. One package seems to last about a year. Good quality and decent price. Happy with this product.
