A bariatric rollator is a walker that has wheels, allowing you to move around more easily and with less effort than with a traditional walker which you have to scoot around. (We've all seen the tennis balls on walkers, right.) Bariatric rollators are larger and sturdier than standard rollators, made of stronger materials, and are able to support heavier weights. They are also equipped with wider seats and handgrips.

Additional Features

Like most rollators they also have additional features, such as storage baskets and brakes, to make them more functional and user-friendly. Bariatric rollators are helpful for people who are overweight or obese, and can help them maintain their mobility and independence so they can live their life on their own terms.
