The strengths of this product are precisely the reason for which I purchased it: It has at least a 23" seat (from floor) and is designed for a tall user.

The weaknesses of the product are significant: (1) Gets wider near the wheels, and therefore takes up too much space when passing between tight places. There is no need for the widening at the wheels area. (2) Does not fold easily for user to place in and out of car. The older version of the Nova walker which had a "handle" in the seat was the easiest to collapse. It is no longer available, so this Invacare model was the next best thing available for purchase. I added my old Nova exterior wire basket, and that works the very best for me, at this point in time, and with what is now available to the consumer. As usual, if consumers could be involved in the design of products, they would always be more user-friendly.

Sturdy wheels. Large wheels provide stability. The basket is handy and the seat sturdy. Good quality.

Brakes are difficult to adjust, instructions are not helpful - - - brakes loosen over time. Handles could be sturdier as they crack over time.

I have MS and have two of these walkers, one for use at home and one in the van.

Barely able to travel on snow, even shoveled.

The free turning of the front wheels are too weak.
