Now you see it, now you don’t. As some of you may have noticed, the Invacare Junior rollator (model 65350GR) that I blogged about back in August is no longer offered on our website. The main reason for this is unpredictable availability. The second reason is that it is only offered in green.

But fret not. In its place we have added Three Junior Walker Rollator models. I would like to take this opportunity to point out the highlights of each.

As I mentioned in the earlier post, the Lumex RJ4301 Walkabout Junior Rollator was not for everyone, as it was quite narrow. The Lumex RJ4300 Walkabout Standard Rollator was the correct width for these individuals, but was too tall. So for the Goldilocks’ out there, we now offer the Lumex RJ4302 Walkabout Hemi Rollator – which is “just right”. Its width is identical to the RJ4300, but is designed for shorter individuals.

Actually, all of the three newly added models are for average width adults. Aside from the slight differences in the various dimensions (which can be viewed in the product specifications tab), the main difference between them is the basket. The Lumex Hemi rollator (RJ4302) has an under-seat basket. The Petite Walker Rollator Deluxe (HL400) has a front mounted basket. The Drive Medical 301PS has an under-seat pouch instead of a basket, which doesn’t have to be removed when folding (assuming the pouch is basically empty).

As you may recall, Drive’s initial offering, the 301, had a plastic seat. Many customers requested a padded seat option, and so they added the 301PS model. The 301 is still available for those who prefer a plastic seat (at least for the time being), and is the only Junior Rollator we offer that has that. Please note the 301 has a front mounted basket, unlike the pouch on the 301PS.
