Some have adjustable handles to give an individual design, and some have a backrest that can help provide support to the lower spine. Choose models with bigger wheels (8” or more in diameter) that can withstand uneven surfaces like gravel. Certain models have an adjustable lever, also called a “curb-climber” that permits the front wheels to be lifted over obstacles such as curbs.

This gives you added stability when you need to sit still or rest on the seat. Some manufacturers have a brake that is activated by pushing down the pedal. This makes it more convenient for those who are petite or have arthritis or other gripping issues.

It is important to recognize indicators that indicate your walker's brakes need to be adjusted, for instance, when it suddenly rolls or does not stop quickly when you press the brakes. Slow-Down Brakes A slow-down braking system is a unique characteristic of a rollator. It lets the user manage the wheel's maximum speed so that it does not accidentally accelerate and move away from the person walking. This helps increase security, particularly if the walker is walking on an incline or over rough terrain. It's also a useful feature for people who have one side of their body that is more powerful than the other side, since it evens out the direction of the travel. These systems of braking can be operated by people with weaker strength. The lever is operated with a simple push/pull action. Some brakes with slow down feature multiple settings to adjust the level of resistance. This lets the walker be used in different terrains and conditions.
