Bought this about this in 2019 after watching video for travel and outdoor park walking. Genius is right. Light, easy to use, comfortable, and somewhat stylish. Side fold is awesome. Thanks guys you are my default Resource for all ADL issues.

As a caregiver who is developing my own joint and mobility issues, I give this walker an A+++! My biggest problem when dealing with walkers is trying to hoist them into my SUV. The weight is an issue, along with the clumsiness of the walker that constantly opens up as I try to put it in the back or the second passenger seat. Pulling it closed is also another problem. Every time I do, I pinch or bang my fingers. I always have black and blues all over my hands and fingers. I transport my mother and great aunt on a regular basis. I am always stressed through the process. I am definitely going to be checking out this walker. Thanks for this review.

Except my walker doesn’t convert to a wheelchair this is almost identical to my walker. It receives many admiring glances and comments from others. I’d count the foot-operated lift as a major feature, rather than minor. It’s a rare walk around the city that doesn’t involve its use! The brake adjust is also worth its weight in gold. Not only do cables stretch, the wheels wear quite rapidly and the brake operates on the outside of the wheel. I chose mine based on the comfort of the seat as I need to rest frequently. Its purchase was to say the least, liberating! Well worth the cost.

Perfect - I walked my 99 year old mother in a lite weight wheel chair back in 2013 -2015 but I always wanted to find a walker-chair like this. This is exactly what I wanted - even my sister could have used this for her husband in 2016 to 2019

I got a Hugo Navigator and a front wheel began wobbling. The company said the bearings need replacing and to get new ones costs money if they have them in stock. Many reviews have said they could not get replacement parts. Maybe a different manufacturer has a longer lasting product with reasonably price parts in stock.....

Wow! I would love something like this. I have been a nurse for over 33 years but it’s taken a toll on my body. I love to fish but with spinal stenosis and bad knees i have to use a walker to get to and from my fishing holes and the 4 wheel walker I currently use is just barely fitting the bill. I once saw someone using a fantastic walker called trionic veloped .. made in Europe for people who want to try to enjoy the outdoors but have issues with walking. It’s pretty expensive and I don’t know if they have models with seats. Anyway, thanks for the wonderful demo. I’m going to check this out.

I have one of these (different brand) That I got from Amazon. I can walk short distances independently. My helper can wheel me to a location then I use the rollator to get around by myself. One problem, I can lift my other portable rollator (took off the backrest and storage bag, fold it up and store it in the back seat of my car. About 15 lbs. Use it when I'm alone), but the rollator/transport chair is too heavy for me to put in the trunk by myself (about 40 lbs)

I’m having some health issues with my joints, but we had a family trip planned for New York City. This kzbin.infoUgkxuxJwamLFanm476LC5WPeTouyyU1GXomC was perfect! It’s lightweight enough that my friend could carry it up or down stairs when we needed to. (I can walk very short distances) It was comfortable for me to sit in, I would say if you’re super tall it might be a little cramped. I’m 5’1” and the foot rests were the perfect height. This may not be the best one for long term use, you get what you pay for, but for something that fits our budget that gives me accessibility while we deal with my health this was amazing.

Yes, I like this walker, however I am skeptical regarding itss use I would need it for. Getting the walker out and over my front threshold of my home would be difficult because it would need brakes on the front wheels and back wheels. The threshold in the front of my home is literally a 4 inch high stone step.

I've been subscribed to your channel for a couple years now. I was attracted to the manner you provide proper techniques in caring for your body. I also enjoy the camaraderie the both of you have together, and in the way your enjoyable personalities shines through on video communicating it to your audience. Job well done. I've been researching Rollator/Transit chairs for several years now. I need one of these type walkers desperately. My insurance is willing to cover the standard walker, a transit chair or a wheelchair. However it's not practical for me to have the multiple devices, or possible to bring them all on trips outside the home. As someone who doesn't have my own vehicle, even when I did, there wasn't enough space in the vehicle for both devices. Additionally, I don't know at what point I need to stop walking and need to begin sitting, having someone push me. I came across this Hugo Rollator Transit walker several years ago. The cost I saw for it was around $600-700. I really appreciate your in depth review and promotion of this specific one. My only question regarding it, how comfortable is it when being used as a transit chair? On the occasions of attending a convention, or all day outing requiring a lot of walking, I would need to ride in it for multiple hours. I'm concerned with how comfortable it is to sit in for an extended period of several hours. I recognize the unlikeliness of either of you testing this factor out on the device. Whoever you ended up gifting it to, perhaps would be able to answer the question, & you could relay their opinion. Thanks again for this videos and all the others you make too.

Well, one thing 2 back doctors aren’t addressing is it’s too short for the guy in the grey shirt - you don’t want to be leaning over - you need to walk with your eyes up and forward. They must be able to be adjusted up or down to the right height. Most people never adjust them and I have raised them for them and they just never realized how easy it was with the push buttons on the legs. I don’t see how these he is showing are adjustable to the right height for taller or very short people. Didn’t show adjusting the height - must not be easy. The manufacturer’s need to consider that people who are 5’ or slightly taller ...many lose height as they age especially with osteoporosis. A friend of mine lost 8” - she is now bedridden because of her bones, but she was only 5.1 in her younger years. Gosh what about folks who start out right at or below 5’. But there isn’t any sense making a big deal ...most of these devices including transport chairs are super light and fold easy for going in and out of vehicles. Maybe easier than this one. We used a transport chair for my grandmother - I could push her around easily, and she could sit in it and propel herself around easily too as could my mother.

Hi! What exactly are the wheels made of please? Can these wheels handle grass, packed dirt, and gravel, concrete, and other outdoor areas like rubber wheels can? Thanks!

It's my understanding that Medicare will NOT pay for any walker/rollator that includes the word "TRANSPORT" ANYWHERE in it's description.

What makes it ridiculous is their explanation for exclusion based on the word transport "The device would then be intended for the "ease" of the person assisting one with legitimate and verifiable need for durable medical equipment... .

I am looking for walker which could serve as a wheelchair when my relative's feet hurt too much as she suffers badly from foot issues. Now how do you get up and down a kerb with this thing? My Uncle has a wheelchair and we step on a little bar on the back of his normal wheelchair to get up a kerb. Is there a way of doing this with this piece of equipment? Thanks in anticipation for the answe.

@@charlottehyatt9601 Thanks, I'll need to look at the whole video again and I do not have the time just now. Thanks will find time next week. Just don't get it, I honestly cannot see any normal tipping levers at the back that you stand on with your weight to make most wheelchairs go up a bit to get over a small kurb. It's the weight of the body that does it on the tipping lever.

@@charlottehyatt9601 yes thks - seems It could be moved up to an inch of the ground. Bur for accessing up and over kurbs it is no good. As someone who has pushed all sorts of wheelchairs for 9 years I know this is no good for going around streets.
