FAQ

1. What is the difference between a rollator and a walker?

A regular walker must be lifted with each step. A rollator has wheels and brakes, so you push it forward. Many rollators also have a seat.

2. Is a lightweight rollator strong enough for daily use?

Yes, if it is well made. Quality lightweight models use strong aluminum and are tested for regular use. Always check the weight capacity before buying.
