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!

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.

This is a good quality junior walker for shorter folks who would have difficulty with regular size walkers. Assembly is easy. Does not feel cheap.

Purchased this shorter walker for my 4'9" 96yr old mom. It fits her perfectly & gives her better stability than the previous walker that couldn't be lowered anymore. I was able to snag it at a great price also!

Nice to find a shorter but sturdy walker. Super easy to put together- just slide on legs, cut tags. Came well wrapped. I wouldn't consider it "lightweight" as it's just under 8# but 80 yr old parent can lift into car so not bad.

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.

This walker is perfect for a frail, elderly, diminutive person (in this case, 4'6", 96 lbs, 89 YO). The wheels are larger and more stable than other walkers we've had and the entire unit is perfectly stable, lightweight and easy to maneuver. Easy to assemble and adjust as needed.

Great walker and great for short people

This item was easy to assemble, is lightweight, and sturdy.

Sturdy and folds up for easy storage.

Family member needed this item as the hand me down was too high for her. Very easy to assemble and adjust. It folds nicely for ease of transportation also. Purchased tray attachment for it and it made it extremely convenient.

Without this mobility device my Mom would be unable to have any sort of independence. I highly recommend it. It is light, yet strong enough to help balance a senior or anyone with stability issues.

Did the trick, highly recommend for the price!!
