Product Overview

The Petite Wheeled Walker is ideally suited 
for users 5’5” (165 cm) or less, offering lower 
overall height range and seat height. Designed 
for general indoor (and limited outdoor) use, 
the lightweight alloy frame has 6 inch (150 mm) 
wheels for easy operation and manoeuvrability 
on smooth surfaces.

The moulded handgrips with soft touch brakes are 
ideal for people with limited strength or mobility. 
Handle height can easily be adjusted, with an overall 
extension range of 135 mm. The fully moulded 
PU seat is completely seamless, reducing the 
potential for skin tear or abrasion, plus foam 
backrest for added comfort when seated.

Includes the added convenience of a removable 
basket and bag that can be used together 
or individually. A small PVC pouch is hidden 
beneath the seat, offering additional security 
for small personal valuables. Includes easy 
closing mechanism and compact fold down 
design for convenient transport or storage.
