Now nothing will slow you down with these walker glides! Just easily insert the glides onto the back legs of your walker to roll smoothly over carpets, concrete or uneven surfaces. Imported. Set of 2.
Have used for 8 years on my walker. Aways the same good quality. One major drawback is they can be hard to remove.

Comments about Walker Glides:
Bought for Mother-in-Law who is very unsteady on her feet. Wheels on her walker cause it to roll away from her, and she falls. Since all 4 wheels were replaced with slides, she has had no further falls.

Comments about Walker Glides:
Occassionally the glides will go a bit askew. I can kick them back in place if necessary. I prefer a basic, standard walker with the glides over the heavier walkers with a seat. These glides have so expanded my life. I've been able to go back to church, go shopping again, etc. They have improved the quality of life for me.

Comments about Walker Glides:
I walk many places outdoors using my walker. These are the best thing available to protect back legs of walker from being scraped away so position/height of walker is changed. They are difficult to remove, requiring screw driver at times to pry them out. They often have a diameter just a smidge larger than walker legs. They can be easily inserted using a quick tap with a mallet. Not great, but definitely the best thing on the market for outdoor use of walker.
