Mini Mack Heavy Duty

Solid frame and adjustability of handle bars. Good breaks.

rubber on wheels and fit of handles into base - sometimes they are loose and can not be stabelized.

I am 57 yo female with hip deformities from arthritis. I am also morbidly obese so hip replacement is not an option for me. I was a very active child

The structure of the walker makes you feel very secure. I also use my walker for helping me get around in the kitchen when I am preparing a meal. I feel it is just the right height at the dinner table, also I sometimes don"t need to change into a chair when out to dinner.

I have not found one.

76 year old white female, with lumbar spinal stenosis, and 1 missaligned disc, have a problem standing for long periods of time.

Strong, durable, yet not too heavy. Straight forward to use.

None of the seats on these things seem to be comfortable. This one was not the worst. But I think a denser/firmer cushion would be a nice addition.

Our office chipped in and purchased this for a fellow employee who is getting prepared for knee replacement.

A really well built sturdy walker. I especially like the design of the rear wheels with the yoke supporting both sides of the wheels as opposed to some walkers that have no yoke, lust a bolt through the tubular frame holding the wheel on. Not as strong "in my book".

The handles should be longer so they could be adjusted a little longer. Would it be possible to use the handles from the regular Mack Walker? I wish they were another 1-1/2 or 2 inches longer.

I'm 70+, had both knees replaced, and am overweight. About 5'4".

I especially like the Nova because the rear wheels are supported by the "yoke" on both side of each wheel. instead of a bolt through the pipe holding the wheel on other makes.

Only complaint is that the handles need to be extended another inch or 1-1/2 inches.

doris c. from randolph, wi

I had both knees replaced and am doing fine.

Design features making it very comfortable to sit in and easy to use. Being only 4ft. 9 in. tall, this walker is perfect for her. She is very happy that her feet are firmly on the ground when she sits and the handles are at the perfect height for her as well. The larger seat makes it very comfortable since she needs the width. Because it is so sturdy she feels very safe.

My Mom is 88 years old and has severe arthritis in her knees and a torn rotator cuff in her shoulder.

Easy to maneuver. Very well made.

Basket attachment.

82 year old who had hip replacements and arthritis in her back. Overweight, therefore needed a slightly wider unit.

Very well made and easy to walk with. The seat is wide enough and comfortable to sit on. The tires are large enough to move over rough pavement, etc. with ease.

A little heavy for me to put in my car trunk. I can lift it, but not with ease.

I am 72 years old and am suffering with emphasema, arthritis, and diabetes.

Good quality product

Just wish it was lighter. But since I had to get a larger one to go with the larger me.... guess it had to be heavier.

I love my Mini Mack! I was having such a hard time staying mobile before I got it. I am very overweight and have degenerative joint disease.

nice looking, "appears" to be well built.

Basket hanging out the front is hard to reach. Nut holding wheel on has come loose and almost fell off. Every wrench I try to use to tighten it is too thick to go between the wheel and the frame. I really need a wrench to fix this, or she is going to fall when it comes off.
