I'm a little over 400 pounds and have no problems. This is a very good product!

I am 6 1 298 lbs I do not need it all the time but when my knees give out I have to have it I have the handles as high as they will go and it is like 2 canes to hold onto and when I get tired there is a nice seat with back rest to set on GOOD LUCK ROGER R

It will easily hold you. I'm 5'7" and I have the handles set at the lowest. They go very high. I sit on it and have my 9 year old son sit on it with me. The tires are strong and sturdy. It has been a life-saver for me.

I am 5' 7" and there are 6 adjustments above the level setting for my height. Also, the weight limit for my walker is 250 lbs. They do make a more heavy duty walker for larger people, perhaps you may need to check those out. Your question may best be answered by the manufacture.

I'm 5'5" and can sit comfortably with my feet on the floor and my back against the back rest. Depending on how long the person's legs are, it should be OK. The more troubling issue is the fact that this item comes with 3-spoke wheels rather than the 8-spoke ones pictured. Some have reported that the wheels can break while the walker is in use.

I, too, am 5'5" & find this model perfect. I does take some maneuvering inside but passes over rugs and thresholds easily compared to stand up walker. It truly is all terrain as I've been in grass, gravel, streets without problem. However, watch and tighten the bottom screw between the front wheel cables as it loosens & could easily be lost. We also had to adjust brakes substantially. Brake shouldn't be counted on to stop you! I covered black pad with lambswool (the real stuff from Ocean State Job Lots as a floor buffer mat @$5) as knee can get sore and sun absorbs blistering heat. Love that this size is substantially cheaper than next size up, too I, too, am 5'5" & find this model perfect.

yes---the six " wheels are superior to the 4" ones-----although i still have to give the walker a little boost now and then over rough terrain or in the garden----good choice for the $$$

The wheels are pretty good. I haven't had any issues with them. To me, they seem quite sturdy.

I weigh about 170 and have put about 1500 training miles on these wheels this season. They still ride true like they did out of the box. Due to the 24 spoke count on the front and back they should be able to hold riders up to 230 pounds.

I would be hesitant to answer a question as to whether this walker would be appropriate for an 80 lb 4'10" frail woman, as I am not a nurse or doctor. It would depend..not because I don't think it's a strong and good quality walker, but because I don't know the person using it. Is she able to use the brakes? Does she lean forward when she walks? Etc. etc. For many frail people, healthcare providers suggest a regular walker..with wheels in the front but not in the back..because they feel it provides more stability. With wheeled walkers, if someone is not strong enough or aware enough, a wheeled walker can propel them forward and have them lose their balance. I would talk to her doctor before you purchase.

for a person who is 5'5 its good you just have to raise the seat the tires are a little to stock for me but tires are not that expensive.

We bought this tricycle for a 2.5 year old girl. The tires are not thin. They seem very sturdy. I can't imagine the tires wearing out with anything this age group could do to them. I think you will like it. I am picky and I was satisfied. I hope this helps you in your decision making process!

I have the Drive Medical Deluxe Clever Lite Rollator Walker with 8" Casters, Flame Blue, Adult with 8" locking front wheels. The specs say weight limit is 300 lbs., but I weigh 340 and it still works fine for me. I find it easier to walk a straight line with the front locking wheels. The front wheels that are allowed to spin and turn, etc., made my walking more stressful. It's a great sturdy walker. I recommend it highly.

I would thinkit should be o.k. Most walkers are the same height. Plus the handles are adjustable. Also the walker is well built.

THe walkers have different legs. This one fit mine. I haven't used it in a while but I think that when I was looking for one to fit my walker this was the one that did. I do feel it could have used larger wheels.

These will hold up. I used my first pair exclusively for 3 months or so then back to my usual use of around the house when I'm not wearing my prosthesis. I'm 6', 230 lbs. I would highly recommend these crutches. Get them set properly and they are great and hold up very well.

It depends on the amount of weight added. This is a bit light and I would be very careful to lean too hard. It can stand some weight but be careful. I have had ti tigheten the front wheels a bit, because on city streets there is a tenancy to woble. Othewise it is weilcome change from the standard walker.

I'm not sure I am a 6'3 250lbs guy my friend is on the 300 and over program and he didn't bust it I would say he is a good 310 to 320 the wheels are made great I think not thin plastic

While plenty sturdy for walking at that weight, it would be pretty hard to control at speed. The plastic hardware robs this unit of lateral rigidity. And, compared to a B.O.B., it's pretty squirrelly at a 7:30 pace even with a 30lb child. Make sure the tires are pumped up and you spend some time really dialing in the alignment.
