What happens to the wire basket when the unit is folded up? Does the wire basket lift off before folding? Thank you.

yes , it comes off easily, and 3 wheeler folds up easily. one note of caution . depending on your height ( your arm length) ( I am 6 foot) the handles only adjusted upward just so far. I took the handles out and drilled an extra hole, for myself. the basket and small cover on the basket are GREAT help. The brakes give very good control ( especially up or down an incline.

yes my husband always takes the basket off before folding it. The walker has been most useful for my husband and easy to handle.

Yes, the wire basket lifts easily off of two hooks before folding the rear wheels together.

The basket is removed before you close the walker so that you can put it in the back of your vehicle.

Yes the basket lifts off and then you can fold it. I really like this three wheeled walker, it's nice and compact and fits thru smaller walkways and places than the four wheeled.

Yes. You remove the basket before folding. It folds and unfolds with complete ease.

Has anyone had a problem folding unit down. We slid frame lock release while squeezing lock release. Releases side locks, but will go no further? Any suggestions?

When it is open it is very stable and it stays up on it's own. The sides AND the dividers stay in place. When folding it, unsecure the velco divider tabs and just pull the two carry handles towards each other and it folds down, buckle and it's flat. Unbuckle it and it will open fully once you pull up the sides, very easy to open with one hand (when you have bags in the other). This is a very sturdy unit. IMHO

To the best of my knowledge it does not. Yes there is a fold up, but not a tilt away. If you are getting into a trunk it seems like you would still be able to do that since it lifts straight up. My SUV has a door that open out so with bikes on and no tilt away you can't open that back tailgate. With bikes off, no problem with access. Careful using this rack with Mt. Bikes. The shocks and fat tires are not a fit for this rack.

The wire basket can come off the light fixture part. It unscrews. I really do like it once i put a plug on the end. I think u have to buy the whole thing though.

It folds flat, you have to completely take it apart, including the handle and tires. Which personally is mildly annoying, especially if you're putting it into a vehicle frequently. Dirty tires are not enjoyable nor is the time to put it together and take it apart whenever you want to use it. Which I believe most bike trailers are that way. Other than that, I'm happy with it, especially when I'm using it from home.

Yes! I love the whole unit. You can leave the basket on and it folds flat when you don't need it or just unhook it. The part that attaches to the handle bars connects with velcro and is easily removed. Hope this helps!

Good Morning Robert,Yes, the walker can fold with basket attached. There are straps on each side and a stabling cord that goes underneath the basket and stretches around the walker. My Mom loads it up pretty good with a cordless phone, water, snacks, etc and is very stable. She said it was the best present I ever gave her...I don't think you would be disappointed. I would highly recommend it! Mary from NY

Hi Barbara - the bike does come with a basket holder for the back (standard amongst bikes), but does not come with a basket per say. I utilize the basket holder and connect a milk carton with some bungee cords and this works out great for when I want fold up the bike. Otherwise with the milk carton still attached, the folding process might not work out as easily as you would like. Hope this helps! Mike

The silverware basket comes off and the rest of the basket folds almost flat. It folds to just over twice the width. Once the basket is removed just lift it up and it will fold. Gravity holds it open so there is no hardware or anything to complicate what you want to do. I have owned this now for almost a year and it's used every day with no complaints whatsoever.

It folds with the basket. I find it easiest to lay the desk flat so that the basket folds down mostly first, and the rest of the desk folds up rather easily from there. The basket pivots on one side like it is hinged. It swings up and down if that makes sense. It rests flat on the opposite leg, on little pegs. Very durable though. I stuck heavy books on the basket, just to see how durable it was and I ran out of room to stack text books. It still held up well. Unfolding, the basket can be unfolded last. but it lays pretty flat between the legs of the desk when it is folded up, so it also doesn't flap about. It isn't a true hinge though. A pair of pegs fit into holes. During normal use they don't pop out, but one of the baskets was loose when we first got them. (I ordered three together and they shipped in the same box.) It poped right back into place with no trouble though.

Yes the basket pulls out. If you are behind like I was and have a lot to shred, have a large trash bag handy to dump it into. This shredder has worked great for me.

Yes, looking at the picture it is that wire loop near the bottom of the unit. It is spring loaded and folds in for storage in its case

You do not need to unplug or remove the battery to fold it. Although, doing so will lighten the load by another 6.5 pounds, so it could make it even lighter for you to lift it. But absolutely you do not need to unplug or remove the battery to fold it.

It can be folded flat, but if it isn't put in a tight space it will probably spring back into shape. The wire in the end pieces is very flexible.

It does fold up - I leave mine on the truck most of the time. It does come off your hitch rather easily however keep in mind that it is an off-balanced piece of equipment once it leaves the hitch. I have no problems putting it on and off the hitch alone. While it is folded up you will not have use of the gate (if you are putting it on a pick-up) or the back area of your vehicle unless you lower the lift first. All in all I find the product to be a very good buy.

Yes, when the basket is detached from the bike, the handles flip up. Similar to a carry basket at a small retail store.
