Does the 3 wheel rollator tilt backward as you walk so that you end up walking with only the two back wheels for support?

no - though my mother who uses it is very petite, it is very stable and has absolutely given her the independence she craves.

No it doesn't. All three wheels stay on the ground. It is not for someone who is unstable on their feet but works well for someone who needs extra support to be able to walk upright.

My elderly mother uses this walker and she loves it. No, it does not tilt backwards as she walks. If it did, I would not have purchased it as she needs the extra balance. All three wheels stay to the ground and it's great to know that she's safely walking.

We had that problem & found that the bottom horizontal struts were collapsed for shipping. There is a button on either side which, when depressed, unlocks the thing & allows you to slide it out to it's full wheelbase extension. Hope this helps.

Danziger illustrates that with correct assembly the three wheels give support and excellent stability.

No. The Winnie Walker rolls along on all three wheels are you walk forward. The only time the two back wheels are used is if you want to go over a obstacle on the road.

The 3 wheel rollator will not tilt backward on its own. You would have to tilt it back yourself, which you may want to do to get up over a curb, for instance. This rollator is lightweight yet extremely stable, and much more convenient than the traditional 4 wheel one--especially easy to place in your car.

This only happens when I am walking down hill. I find I must keep my hands on the brakes to avoid it when going down hills

My mom and friend both love the walker and it has never tilted backward during use. It is very stable.

No, it should be used with all three wheels on the ground all the time. Walk fairly close to the machine with elbows bent, this way you have more control. Carole G.

The front wheel does shake quite a bit, so I would tilt the entire stroller when running. It's a great workout when you have to do that!!

the stroller itself you can tilt it to come foward or backward, and if i was you i wouldn't waste my money on the stroller.good luck

Yes, but the steer wheels will be behind you, making it difficult to steer.

Check the website manual but I believe it's only forward. Also, the recline position is not a drastic recline, just slight.

I have ony used it facing forward, but you could probably turn it to the side or back. However, if the seat was facing backwards, it may interfere with your walking?

The three wheel stroller is pretty sturdy, therefore your pet should be fine leaning on either side without stroller tipping over

I believe they only go back and forth. It was a gift for my grandson and it is very sturdy. The wheels not turning have not slowed him down.

No, only up or down, but the arm rests themselves are amply long enough so backward/forward is not a factor.

Yes it would back and forth really well in a few days the wheels will get kitt5y liter dust on them stopping the wheels to move both ways I am very disappointed as it only worked really well at first.

Yes it does... you can have no bars on one side and full bars on the other, letting you know your backing up sideways for example.

No, it only retracts for storage. It is a extremely nice stroller. I am 5'7" and don't have any trouble walking behind it. You should do just find.

No. the front wheel wabbles back and forth when there is little pressure on it. The only way I can stop it is to push up on the handle, making the weight on the front tire...or to lift the handle so the wheel doesn't touch the ground. I plan to purchase the Jogging wheel. this happens even when walking with it.

The lever on the left allows you to "rock" back when it's up and doesn't not rock when it's down. That's the only tilt I'm aware of

I don't know if this will be helpful or not. It sounds like the other one has three wheels although I can not be sure. I had a different stroller with three wheels and it wasn't a great stroller so I can not say for sure anything about this 3 wheeler. Mine tipped easily but again it was a different brandI like this stroller and use it in the Arboretum every day. It works fine on the dirt paths.I have had this one since Dec. and have only had good experiences with it.

As far as I can remember, no, it doesn't steer. Gift for my grandson and I no longer have it at my home. Would make sense, though, since this is for a newly walking toddler and the narrow wheel base in general would make it rather tippy. Grandson loves it!

I don't know if the model has been changed in that regard (I doubt it) but my wheels are grounded when I lift the deck. The treadmill moves very easily backwards or forwards and requires some twisting if if you need to *turn* as the wheels are straight.
