Why do walkers have brakes?
Loop-lock brakes are the hard plastic hand loops found under the handlebars of many rollators. Users squeeze both loops to stop the rollator temporarily, and lock it in place by pushing the loops down. These brakes respond fast and provide great security, but they can be tiring if you have weak hands.
Are wheeled walkers safe?
Because there are wheels on all of their legs, leaning heavily on a rollator can be a major safety hazard; the walker could roll out from underneath you as you lean on it, even if you’re using the hand brakes. Instead, a rollator is intended to help you keep your balance without bearing any of your weight.
