Drive Medical 10210-1 2-Button Folding

Here’s My Experience with the Drive Medical Deluxe Two Button Walker – Pros & Cons with my own pictures
Here’s my personal experience setting up and using the Drive Medical deluxe two button folding walker that I just got from Amazon. And I’ve included my own pictures too, to show you what I’m talking about.First, I liked that this Drive Medical folding walker came in flat box that was only 4” deep, which made it really easy to lift, carry up steps and into the house.It was also easy to open the box and slide out the walker. The walker is folded flat, out of the box, and the front wheels and back leg extensions are separated into plastic bags.Putting the legs on this Drive Medical walker was much easier than I thought. And I really love that I put the whole walker together without any tools! You just slide on the front legs (with wheels), and back legs, onto the existing walker legs. And you can adjust this walkers height by aligning the holes in the leg extensions with the locking button on each of the existing walker legs.Really, it was very easy to attach all 4 legs and adjust it to my height. As you can see, I’m pretty short, so I set my walker legs to the #2 position.Now, I gotta say, I was worried about how this walker would fit through my doorways & hallways. A few of my hallways are narrow and I was worried that this walker would be just too wide. BUT, here’s a very helpful solution I really want to share because I think it can help a lot of people: when I was reading reviews of different walkers, I found a great tip on […] that showed me how to reduce the width of my walker by just switching the wheels!It’s a really EASY fix: just take the front left & right legs, with wheels, and reverse them. And you’ll see that your wheels are now sitting inside the frame of the walker. Not on the outside. By switching the position of the front wheels, I cut down my walker width by almost 4”! And now my hallways are not a problem. I found this easy fix on […]I tried out the push button release, at the top of the walker, to unfold the two sides. I was happy to see that the red release button was easy to press down. I have a little neuropathy (numbness) in my fingers, so I have to avoid buttons or levers that are hard to press down. But I didn’t have any problems using the red release button on this walker to fold & unfold it.This Drive Medical Walker is light, but it still feels very sturdy to me. The 5” wheels roll smoothly and I don’t see that the wheels have made any marks on my floors. (That’s important to me.)The hand grips on this walker are cushioned and I think anyone would like the way they feel. I’m going to try this walker for a while, and if the neuropathy in my fingers flares up, I can just get inexpensive, even more cushy walker handgrips covers to help.All in all, I really love this foldable walker and I would recommend it to any friend of mine. I guess, the only thing that I think could be improved would be to clearly mark the legs with wheels to show that they should be put on the front of the walker. When I first put on all the legs, I put the wheels on the back. Wrong. It was my mistake, I know, and I could easily fix it, but I think the directions/packaging could have been a little bit clearer.All in all, I think this walker is a winner. In my opinion, it’s a great mix of quality & price.

Easy to use, sturdy, and light.
Bought for my 74 year old mother who has difficulty balancing and walking..It’s made of aluminum. Quality smooth, well crafted pieces. The device comes out of the box fairly almost ready to use. You just need to unpack, unfold, lock, and attach the four legs..There are only 5 pieces. 2 front bottom leg pieces with wheels; 2 rear bottom leg pieces with a softer plastic ends; and the folding main frame..The frame opens up easily and locks into place and stays locked. Unlocking to fold up is easy and straightforward. Attaching the legs and adjusting them is easy and straightforward as well. You need to match numbers to adjust all the legs evenly..My mother is barely 5 feet tall and I adjusted down the size without any difficulty. And the device can be adjusted down to work for people who are of shorter stature than my mom..I cut two cheap tennis balls with a utility knife to cover the rear legs, so that the walker does not slip and scratch the hardwood floors. BUY TENNIS BALLS and prevent wearing away of the soft plastic covers.

Muy buena calidad, muy ligera y util

Needed a 2 wheel walker for my Hip-Surgury operation. The Drive Medical brand had good reviews so I ordered one on Amazon. I am 100kg and I find the unit to be very robust and stable and that it easily supports the forces I put on it. When I was in the Hospital, I found that they use this same Drive brand unit. Price on Amazon beats the local retail stores by a lot and buying one is a better deal that renting one of these walkers for 4 weeks. Very satisfied customer !
