I had one knee high but was wobbling because I could not find a shoe high enough to walk semi-ok. Driving concerns me. How is walking and driving?

Do not drive with these on. 1) There is no ankle movement so you would need to use your whole leg to press the pedal; not as accurate as just using the ankle. as the pedals were designed. 2) The width of the boot is wide enough that you would press on two pedals at once.

Walking is a bit tough because the shoe is very heavy. I wouldn't try driving with this shoe - the bulkiness of it would definitely impair your pedal control.

It's a bit higher than a normal shoe so you do need a cane or crutch support. I couldn't drive with it. I had to take public transportation.

I think you'll be fine, it's not really a board to have both feet on and it's actually better for people with bigger feet :)

Have not taken it outside yet. I use it mainly in the house which has rough terrain just as irregular. However any thing designed like any knee walker tipping is always possible. I would suggest to practice with it to see how it handles for you. Quoted Over all it works well for me.

I drive a stick and was able to use the clutch. That was a plus. It stabalized my ankle, yet I felt like I could move pretty easily.

The knee pad helped a lot. I had a cast that kept cutting into my knee so I put a cut off sock inside the top of my cast and with the pad on the scooter it was much better! It was also pretty easy to get in and out of the car on your own as long as you can balance pretty well or put your foot down just enough to keep from falling over. I am not very strong and was able to do it.

Bumpy as far as road and sidewalk, ur fine after practice. turning is easy, just need to practice leaning and shifting ur weight properly :) *disclaimer- im tiny, so i am unsure wheather size effects how u respond to the board. This is my personal experience*

It is very difficult to ride and stop. I don't think your foot would get stuck

My husband is the shortest of all the answers. It is a great walker and I didn't have to adjust it. I'm sure you will be pleased with this walker.

What is your definition of low? I am 5 ft 2 and when kneeling down, I was able to rock the baby comfortably.

Yes, I struggled with this too. Put your thumb under the white tab, and pull it to your right for the right shoe, to your left for the left shoe, in a smooth, continuous, firm motion. Practice in the house first - when your out in the snow/cold/or needing to get that shoe off quickly, you want to feel confident/comfortable you can do it. Good luck!

I do believe the movements with your legs is still the same. Make sure there not to big, they may dig into the top of your shoe / foot.

Sidewalks are good, rough surfaces not so much .. You have to focus on the path so you don't hit any rocks or crevices..

If you are heading out on a smooth surface, you will be fine. I would not recommend rolling on grass or gravel. Karen, recovering from total ankle replacement -

That was how my commute to work was. Half was in ice and snow and the other on sidewalks. These were perfect for that. I took them for an intense hiking trip around a bunch of frozen waterfalls - not good for that at all.

Yes as a walker only not for sitting in while transporting. sit in it only while stopped. Sit in flat terrain.

Not enough! I am 5'9" and I found myself having to drill new holes in the bars to get sufficient height. Otherwise, I either a) walked bent over which was uncomfortable and awkward, or b) had to walk using just the tips of my index and ring fingers. It was a tough job to do, and in the end I needed 3 more inches to be able to stand upright while walking.
