Last week we received an inquiry form s guy who has looking at the 3 wheel Winnie Walkers. The reason the 3 wheel rollators caught his interest was because he needed a rollator that folded the most compact. He was a motorcycle rider and had some type of storage place on the side of his bike where he intended to store the rollator. Three wheel rollators do not have a seat, but that didn't bother him. His main concern was that it fold compactly. However, the Winnie Walker's width when folded is 10", the same as the R6 four wheel rollator. We tried looking at our other models, but we could not find anything that folded more compact than 10" according to the specs we had available. In the end, the customer did not place the order. At GoWheelchair.com, we take pride in helping the customer make the right decision, not just "completing the sale".

When open, the width of the Winnie Walker is 29" as opposed to 24" for the R6. So if doorway clearance is an issue, going for 3 wheels will just make matters worse. The Winnie Walker is very lightweight, however, weighing just 9 lbs. It is also highly maneuverable, as there is only a single front wheel. Some consider the 3 wheel form factor to be more "sporty" and less like a mobility aid.
