are the wheels rubber or that crap that falls apart?

The wheels appear to be rubber. We've had this chair for about 6 months, and have not had any problems. We often use it on parking lots with uneven, rough surfaces (for the many doctor's appointments) and "off-roading" on grass at the community ball park. There may a scratch or two in the wheels, but they are holding up quite well. I highly recommend this chair.

It is difficult to determine the composition of the wheels. However, I do not believe they are rubber but of a plastic composition. They do not make marks on my carpet, wood floors, outdoor concrete, etc. so they are good to go. Hope this helps.

They are rubber wheels. Good quality for the price. My son loves them. They were a birthday gift for him last year.

I got one about two months ago and it has five spoke plastic wheels with a slightly softer "plastic" tires. I was expecting the spoke wheel with rubber tires but these do seem pretty durable.

The rear wheels are hard plastic. Mine are wearing fine. From past experience, it is usually the front tire that wore out. Linda

They are solid rubber- The front wheels either lock straight (which is the mode we use) or swivel. Our pair is smaller- in the 13# each range - but we do a lot of hills up and down and the wheels have held up great.

As others have said, the wheels are a hard rubber. They don't mar my solid walnut floors and my floor normally scratches easily; they are not the Lumber Liquidator type (which is really resilient), but the real kind with polyurethane finish. It is a solid cart with large baskets and more sturdy hooks than I've seen with other carts.

The wheels (rims) are steel, while the tires mounted on the steel rims are rubber. Very nice quality!

Hi, the wheels are plastic, but the tires are rubber. Not filled with air, but still pliable rubber. It is great for the street, but would be a rough ride on trail. It is very well made and our cat loves it!

It is hard to tell what the wheels are made of, "rubbery plastic " I would say. they are small. We love it for our Laminate floor. I also love that if comes apart easily for a hand held vacuum. Very happy with it!

No, it's hard rubber. If you order a replacement wheel, it does not come with the hardware to attach it.

Unfortunately the wheels are plastic. The floor in my shop is not the smoothest but so far they work quite well even with me sitting on the stool. Just how long they will last is anyone's guess, for the money I'm satisified with the stool.

They look like they could be hard rubber wheels. I do know the cart has held up well as we push it through the house once a week on laundry day over carpeting and tile floors.

I don't think so. The wheels are rubber on the outside and don't hold up as well as the "all" plastic ones do.

The rear wheels are hard plastic and the front wheel has that rubber strip my grandson has been riding his for three or four years and it's still in good shape.

Good afternoon, Raquel. The wheels are made out of rubber. I hope you find this information helpful. Adreanna - HearthSong Customer Service

The wheels swivel all around and the wheels feel like rubber to me. I have no complaints about this walker. I have 2, one for inside and one for outside when I water the yard. That way I don't bring any dirt into the house.
