Can the adult push with just one hand, or, since it's a split handle does one hand need to be on each side of the handle in order to keep control?

Yes, you can push with just one hand. This was the best buy. I plan on buying another one as a gift.

You can do it with one hand but it is a very cheaply made product that likely won't hold up long. We are very disappointed with the cheapness of the materials as they are a very lightweight plastic.

Its design is for a two hand push, but it can de used for a one handed. The only problem I encountered was my Grandaughter had trouble keeping her feet on the pedals. They do make one with pegs that can be removed later. I also put a bike bell on it for her, she loves that. I got it a Kmart. Hope that helps :)..

It is easy to remove with one hand. I usually use both hands to stabilize, but not really necessary.

I personally always hold it with one hand, and never had a problem, whether sanding, or cutting wood, or whatever. However, you cannot operate it with one hand at all times - for example, if you want to change the speed, the button for that is at the end of the tool, so there is no way to reach it with one hand while holding it at the same time; worse, it's hard to switch it on/off with one hand while holding, so it's best to do that with two hands. Bottom line: if you have reasonable arm strength, you should be able to operate it with one hand for a decent amount of time (enough for most jobs), but you will still need two hands to do some things, such as change speed or turn on/off.

You can use both hands or you can hold it in one hand. Personally, I think it's easier to use with one hand. I put one handle in the crook of my thumb and the other I hold with the ends of my fingers. I hope this helps!

I use it with one hand almost always. I'm male, late 60's, active but not the strongest guy. It's light.

Either way that is easiest. My mother pushed with feet more than using hands but need hands when going through doorways. easier to transport chair to remove foot/leg rest before trying to put into trunk of car!

I don't think you could. They can still turn the handlebars, and there's a little give in the steering, so it would be hard to do two at once. Every so often my son pulls the handlebars and goes veering off while I'm pushing him (usually into my husband).

Yes! It is very easy to handle with one hand. I do it all the time when I'm carrying groceries in to my apartment. I will say it does make your hand a little tired when you do it for long periods of time. But that might be solved if you lock the front wheel to only go straight.

With the front lever that you see (gray handle), it can easily be moved around by 1 person. I always have two just in case, but have handled by myself with ease.

I have had to use two hands. Not sure you could manage what you are asking. Normally in our house. Plate or salad bowl on the counter or table and serve with two hands. Hope this helps.

Yes, It can be used with one hand. If you don't have any hand strength you might need two. I have had no problems using it at all.

It's not the easiest to push and steer one-handed. It can be done, but it requires some practice (i.e., how to push with one hand while holding coffee with the other).

Only if you first push in the sides then you can push up on the top with one hand

Really need two hands for it, but can certainly be used with pots with one handle. Love this item.

Yes you only need one hand. All you do is place it on top of the can and push the button. The opener will do the rest.

No, it is push. But it's so light I can pick it up with one hand. Pushes really easily.....

no, you have to hold on to both legs at once and push together with force in one quick movement.
