Is this designed to roll whilst one is sitting? Or is it designed only to roll with small loads?

I usually roll while sitting; about a foot at a time. It works really well.

Actually, the wheels roll all the time, so you have to be careful even when you go to sit on it. I pulled a big sack of soil on it, but you have to hold on because it wobbles. Mostly you'd want to use it with your gardening tools in the bottom to weed and do light gardening.

The folding leg is narrow, so it just bifurcates the seating position. I suppose that if you whipped up quickly in just the right way, you could cause it to swing to the side, allowing the top to drop (on that side). If I used it as a seating table a lot, I'd possibly put in a small latch or something. But it's comfortable enough.

Mine has just fallen and it is not even full right now. I normally prop it up against the wall, or in a chair against a table when loading and unloading it. The functionality otherwise is excellent and FAR outweighs this slight.

Yes, this would be great for someone just stating out on rolling. It's small enough to help with tight areas that the large roller can't quite get to. I use it mainly for my sore calves and thighs. I also use the larger one for my back. I like to travel with the smaller one, though.

My grandsons used this until they could roll over. It cradles the baby. My daughter used a crib but used this next to her bed when she was nursing. It is just for a short period of time but oh so useful! It is light weight so you can move it to different rooms. I would say until the baby is between 6-9 months old depending on their ability to roll over. A crib (especially if it is convertible to a toddler bed) would of course be used longer. My daughter felt this rocker was indispensable.

owner manual says to use seat up. but i found that the the rolliter is a bit more sturdy with seat down. you do not have that slight wobble afect from side to side.

It is really easy to roll while sitting on it and I work on a L-shaped station too without any problems.

Two wheels in back plus two feet in front so it will stand alone but will roll when tipped on back wheels. Rolls easily.

The picture on this page shows the unit arranged as a rollator. When the person pushing it wants to sit down they turn around and sit between the handles and lean on the backrest. When it is used as a transport chair, the backrest is removed and reinstalled in the reverse direction. A foot rest is dropped down so that the sitting person has a back rest and a foot rest. The person that pushes then uses the handles to push. This capability means that the unit travels in the same direction whether used as a rollator or transport chair. The leading two wheels are the only ones that swivel and they swivel in a complete circle. The wheels are very sturdy with molded plastic rims and solid rubber tires.

The rollers on here are very low profile and you cannot upright it and roll it. They stack really really well. Probly the most useful purchase I have made for storage and moving.

I love it. The reason I bought it was my husband seemed to break every other "easy load" kind that I had. The roll has never fallen off mine. You stretch it slightly as you install a roll, but not enough to bend it. It lets the roll turn freely, however, so occasionally I try to snatch a towel and it lets several roll off. That's just when I'm in a hurry and don't watch what I'm doing. Hope this helps.

Only one per foot and it's not a roller, just a plastic bump. You have to move your foot over it, but its comfortable. I bought it mostly for the depth because I had broken my ankle and needed the height of this item. I don't use it now that my ankle is healed.

The roll does not slide off when using it but I have knocked it off with my elbow once or twice when sitting down.

We dont roll our around too much but when we do the wheels hold up fine. We keep ours in the master bedroom which is carpeted. The wheel seem to do fine with the carpet. They even have two wheels with locks on them to keep it from rolling around. I liked mine so much that I bought my fiance one and it has really helped our laundry hamper situation.

Yes, this rollator is incredibly lightweight, if ya ask me. Of course, this is the only rollator I've ever used.

It is extremely easy to roll. There is no "handle" to pull it. It glides in the direction you want it to go.

It spins at a nice slow speed, but can not handle too much weight at all. I had a small disco ball on it for a party & it would spin for a few seconds & then would make a grinding noise & stop. I wouldn't recommend anyone else wasting their money on this item.
