The Drive Deluxe 3 Wheel Rollator has such a great list of features, it is a crying shame it misses the target implementing a basic, sturdy basket. I'd love to see them fix that, so I'm taking the time to post a more detailed product critique. Please take the time to incorporate these suggestions into your next product release and I'm sure you will sell millions.
Approximate user height: 5'4"-6'0" - the product meets these specs but really needs to be 4 to 6 inches taller.
Height adjustments: 31"-38" - recommend these sockets adjust from 32" to 41" to better enable an operating height from 5'7" through 6'4".. Current height forces a large part of the public to lean over to reach the handles, thereby promoting poor posture.
Includes basket, tray, and pouch (THE BASKET IS POORLY ENGINEERED. It feels flimsy enough to disconnect and dump any cargo when you hit any type of sidewalk hazard. The stability of the tray is negatively impacted by the basket. Most trays would include at least one cup holder. Not this tray. However, the pouch works very well.
Lightweight aluminum frame - This is accurate and helps make it portable. Major advantage over other 3 and 4 wheel units.
Large 8" wheels for indoor and outdoor use. 10" wheels would be preferrable for
Internal aluminum cast loop-lock brakes - work as advertised.
Easy folding for transport and storage - because the basket design and instructions don't clarify how to fasten the basket securely. It will actually disconnect and dump anything that takes up more than 60% of the space. Once you get the basket off the rollator it can be folded, carried, and stored easily. Since it does so well on these features, it's a shame the basket is such a poor design.
Weighs: 11 lbs. - as advertised.
Weight capacity: 300 lbs. - unable to verify.
