Canes, Walkers & Rollators
Simply speaking, the biggest difference between a standard walker and a rollator is that a standard walker has 4 legs and it needs to be lifted up with each step, while a rollator has 3 or 4 wheels and can be pushed along in front of the user.
A walker is designed to hold a person’s partial body weight, but a rollator is not meant to hold any. The rollator is designed to be a support for someone who gets tired easily, whether after a surgery or just as a general condition. A walker will help provide support for those who lose their balance easily and need help maintaining it.
Any store can sell a mobility device – but do they have a service department that can repair it after you’ve started to rely on and need it? Our trained technicians will look after maintenance needs!
