Able Life Comfortably Independent Locking Swivel Front Wheel Kit, Compatible with the Space Saver Walker and the Stander EZ Fold-N-Go Walker, Black, Set of 2

The wheels are great - easy to put on, feels secure and sturdy. I only caution that they are proving to be a difficult transition for my mother who has Parkinson’s. She leans too heavily on the walker and the wheels swivel back and forth as she walks. The wheels are also difficult over gravel and uneven pavement. I’m working on this with her and I hope she will be able to manage it, as they would improve her mobility.

Exactly what we needed

Ordered from Amazon at 11:30am. The wheels arrived at 8:30pm the same day. Nine hours (Wow!)Installation was no problem. If you no longer have the Allen wrench that came with your Able Life Space Saver Walker, don't worry, the swivel wheel kit comes with the correct Allen wrench as well as replacement screws and nuts.The screws have Loctite type inserts (as do the ones originally installed). That may be why many people (especially those with weak arm and hand strength) are having difficulty removing the original screws.Removing the screws is like opening a pickle jar. Once you break the seal, the screws come out easily.If you don't understand how Allen head screws work, ask a family member, friend or neighbor for help. Don't waste your hard earned money by going to some specialist shop that will charge you an arm and a leg for five minutes work.IMPORTANT NOTE: IT CAN BE CONFUSING AS TO WHICH WAY TO INSERT THE SWIVEL WHEELS. JUST MAKE SURE THE LOCKING GROOVES(NOTCHES) AT THE BASE OF SLEEVE INSERTS ARE FACING TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE WALKER.Yes the swivel wheels will take getting used to. Then again, a Walker was never meant for speed walking. Walk at a slow pace as you do with a wheel-less walker until you've learned how to control it.So, I give:5 Stars for delivery.5 Stars for ease of replacement (And I'm 74 mind you).5 Stars for the intended purpose of the swivel wheels.

DO NOT think that you can change the wheels on this walker. If you want the swivel wheels after you bought the fixed-wheel walker, FORGET IT. Just purchase a new one with swivel wheels. You cannot get the wheels off.I like the walker. It is sturdy and folds us neatly at night, or wherever you want. It's light-weight - easy to put in the back seat of your car - easy to get it out and set it up. I advise you to get the pocket for the front. Very handy. Be sure to adjust the height so you can stand upright when you walk. Enjoy. MW

These replacement wheels are superior to the wheels which initially came on the walker in that they give you the option of swiveling or locking, which the original wheels do not. They only function in a fixed position, making it more difficult to steer. The new wheels make it much easier to maneuver the walker. Very nice improvement!
