How do you swap out the feet? I put on the flat feet, and now want to try the wheels, but I can't get the flat ones off.

Sorry my husband put this chair together so long ago that he doesn't remember how everything fits in! Could you try drilling a hole into the bottom middle of the foot, then put in a larger-than-the hole sized screw, then take vice grips and pull on it? (This will not work if the plastic on the foot is thin)

I'm afraid you're just going to need to pull really really hard. I remember the wheels taking a lot of force to get on there.

Try turning the leg upside down or facing in on the opposite side, but also, like everyone else said, put the legs together first. I did this, but the legs are also easy to turn upside down or face the wrong way. it took me a couple of times to get it right. hope this helps!

I had the same problem and was able to get a replacement. I called the vendor who sold the product (it's on the Amazon invoice), told them what happened, and they ordered a replacement which was sent directly to me.. Great customer service! The wheels shaft break because they don't fit snugly into the slot at the bottom of the leg. The wheel then slips out and breaks when you move the file. After you replace the wheel, try to crimp the slot with a pliers where the wheel is inserted. That may be tough to do. Try inserting flat sided toothpicks into the slot next to the wheel shaft and snap off the ends. This will create a tight fit for the wheel shaft.

I have placed this in a stationary position and don't believe I used the wheels. It is at a second home where I will be next week. Ask me then and I will check. Pat

The wheels can be removed by pushing a button in the center and giving a slight tug. If you want to change the tires out for pneumatic ones, you'd be best off taking it to a bike shop. They have equipment that can swap them out in under 30 minutes.

I'm not certain, because my mother does not need her walker at this time. However, I think all you have to do is switch sides by taking off the lower portions of the walker that have the wheels mounted to them, and if you put the left on the right and vice versa, then the wheels should be on the inside. Those bottom portions come off or adjust easy with "click" buttons and corresponding holes.

I have purchased two of these. The first one, I was a bit overzealous and really pounded the wheels on hard-thinking I didn't want them to come off. That DID make the wheels hard to turn. I do not know if you can loosen them, or not. I was not able o get mine loosened. The second one, I did not make that mistake, and the wheels turn good.

The rubber on the wheels should be secured properly with glue. What I did was to replace the rubber with the inner tube of bicycle tyres cut to fit and glue on with super glue. Hope that will solve your problem.

One of the wheels' back has a bigger star looking thing that goes to the motor to turn the wheels. I messed that up the first time.. Not sure which trouble your having. But I also had trouble putting in the little pins in the wheels I had to push down really hard you may want some help though.

I replaced the wheeles with something similar to these, but cheeper (http://www.rockler.com/french-country-bun-feet) and put these (http://www.rockler.com/screw-on-tee-nuts-choose-size-thread) in the holes the wheels went into. Added maybe an Inch and a half, but as an Island in our kitchen, it worked out. Im sure you could find legs closer to the size that the wheels are if you look around. I've had it almost 6 months, and its solid.

Yes, the feet are screwed in, so you could put some wheels in as long as the threads are the same size. Shouldn't be impossible, but most of the wheels I've seen at the hardware store are not threaded, they push into the leg rather than screw in. Hope this helps.

The wheels have a snap ring and once seated they will not come out of the frame. You have to use a fair bit of pressure to press the wheels into the frame past the snap ring.

You local installer should pull your existing one's out and put on the new wheels. If you need some please message me.

You have to "slide" it in from the side, I think. Worth a try. Or maybe have one person hold one side down while another person pushes the axle down with foot (while wearing a shoe!) Try both suggestions. It's been a while since I put ours together. We have so many of these kids things, it hard to remember how they were all put together. I totally understand your frustration!

Unfortunately I returned the cart shortly after I got it because the wheels kept falling off. Maybe I didn't have them on right but I could not seem to figure it out myself either. Sorry I could not be more help.
