Helavo Foldable Rollator with Seat – 360° Swivel 8" Wheels, 24.8" Wide - Lightweight Aluminum Rolling Walker for Seniors and Adults with Adjustable Height

Excellent

I have had this since February 2023. I am still using it. It has been a durable & reliable. The way it folds is so much easier to put in & out of vehicles. It gets around good even in the yard. It has been worth every penny. It has held up well even with my fluctuating weight. It is the perfect size my short legs.

I have a couple of other top-of-the-line rollators that are well-designed and manufactured to very high standards. But they are really expensive and not the easiest to take on airplanes. I needed a very compact and rugged unit that I can take on planes. This Helavo model fits my needs perfectly. It double folds into a compact size that can be gate checked (like a baby stroller) or stowed in an airplane closet. The rollator is easy to unfold, but requires some dexterity to set up (involving a pair of screws and cotter pins). Once set up, the rollator is sturdy and stable; adjustable handle heights; and intuitive to use. The only thing that needs some revision is the canvas storage bag that is supposed to expand into a carrying bag for the rollator. The expanded bag dimensions and design are inadequate for using it to check the rollator on a plane. For the price of the unit this is certainly no deal breaker, and I would happily buy a Helavo brand, TSA-compliant bag specifically made for airplane travel. This model is a tad over 18 pounds. It’s a bit heavy to be carrying up-and-down stairs; but as a rollator for traveling, the trade-off is more than acceptable. The rollator is delivered in a sturdy cardboard box with an instruction manual and two cards tacked to the inside flaps of the box. These are important cards: one for instructions to set up the rollator and the other for obtaining an extended 3-year warranty on the product. Be sure to apply for the extended warranty! It’s free.12/31/23 - I ordered a Gonex 80L Foldable Travel bag (available on Amazon) as a transport bag for gate checking my Model F1010 rollator. I am experimenting with packing the rollator in a 28” suitcase — it takes about half the space in the suitcase and I can pack my clothes in the other half. That way I have fewer pieces of luggage to manage overall.01/17/24 - One more accessory item that I ordered for traveling with my rollator is a TSA-approved "Medical Equipment" baggage tag (many different types offered on Amazon). This tag is useful for gate checked rollators in bags and instances where my rollator is packed in a 28" suitcase for checked luggage. No guarantee that airlines won't mishandle your stuff; but good visual reminder to handle with care.

This is a nice walker. I don’t bump my knee on the seat when I walk. I feel very comfortable and steady when I walk. I also like that it folds in half so easier to store or take on trips. I haven’t used it a lot yet because we had to order a part that did not come with the walker and the company was out of stock. We were able to find the part on Amazon and now I can have some fun with it.

High quality well built and lightweight enough for me. I have heart failure and Need something light enough and easily folded to put in the trunk of my Civic. It will fit in even into a even smaller car if you have one!! We took it on a flight and cruise for our vacation. I love how easy it was to set up, the quality of the chair and wheels and it flooding down to a very small size make it ideal stowing just about anywhere!The handles are very easy to adjust up and down and the brakes are perfect.It stowed in the plane very easily folded down and fit in our cabin and all of the hallways!I researched about every walker even purchased another one that was Much heavier and about impossible to put on a plane!Super buy! Worth every penny!

So far my wife and I have purchased 3 Helavo Walkers - 2 for my father-in-law (82 year old amputee) and 1 for my 79 year old sister who has been suffering from significant health issues. The walkers are made from high quality material and are very stable and easy to steer. The seat is comfortable respite when walking around. My father-in-law broke the back support strap on the seat of the Helavo 1020 Walker (purchased 7/23) since he uses it like a wheelchair sometimes when his prosthetic leg is hurting him. Helavo CS was incredibly responsive and immediately offered a replacement which arrived approximately 1 week later. We have also purchased 1010 for him that we keep in the car. We have purchased other walkers in the past and Helavo is definitely the best and worth it since it is a game changer for anyone who requires assistance to walk.

The walker is sturdy and well made, easy to assemble, no tools required. Just take your time and read instructions carefully, One issue is the multipurpose bag that comes with it, unfortunately it does not secure to the walker in a manner that it fits secure and upright to the frame. The pictures accompanying the product show show a neatly placed bag on the front; however I have been unable to achieve this. Other wise the product is excellent, well maneuverable, adjustable to most individuals.

The walker arrived very quickly which was very good since I needed it quickly. My son put it together for me, but I heard no complaints from him about assembly. It's wonderful to be able to fold it up and get it in the back of the car without it taking up the whole cargo area. I also didn't realize that the back legs folded up until my son showed it to me. Now for the few downsides. Although the description did say that it weighed about 18 1/2 lbs, it's still very heavy for me as 75 year old woman to lift into the car. On my first solo, I got very frustrated trying to fold it up. Later my son figured out that the attached cargo bag was the problem. It won't fully fold up if that bag is attached. Lastly although the back legs do fold up, it was hard for me to get the pins lined up into the holes when I went to unfold them when I was in a parking lot. I do like it, and my main reason for buying it was the space saving feature in addition to being so much easier to collapse for transport. It meets my needs.
