Walkers: What are the pros & cons of 3-wheeled walkers, with a seat?


Any personal experiences welcome, as well!

If this question should be in different category, which one?

Pro: they are easier to maneuver in tight places
Con: they are easier to tip over so I wouldnt recommend to someone who is weak all-around
Pro: they tend to be cheaper than 4-wheel devices
Con: they tend to be cheaper (not made as well, can break easier)
Pro: easier to transport in cars or buses

    Wheels tend to be static and so turning corners is a problem. The balls allow the walker to be maneuverable in any direction, bit like that famous vacuum cleaner. Best of Luck
