MD by Drive Air-Go Walker
Eight pounds, a 21.5 in mesh seat, and it comes out of the carton ready to use. A two wheel walker, not a rollator.
Where you rest
A mesh seat 21.5 in across, curved to sit on.
That is a wide seat for a walker this light, and Drive curves it rather than running it flat. It is mesh, so there is no cushion to squash and no cover to wash.
- ✓21.5 in acrossSeat width
- ✓8.8 in front to backSeat depth
- ✓Sets 20 to 23 in off the floorSeat height, adjustable to your legs
Already open. There is nothing to unclip or unfold before you sit down on it.
How it moves
Two wheels at the front, and no hand levers.
This is a two wheel walker, not a rollator. You set the pace with your own arms instead of a lever, so there is nothing to squeeze and no cable to stretch or adjust a year from now.
- ✓6 in front wheels, 1 in wideWheel size
- ✓No hand brakes and no cablesNothing loops out to catch on a doorway, a chair leg or a coat sleeve
- ✓Airgonomic gripsAir bladders inside them, which is kinder on sore hands and a weak grip
The front wheel, up close. The tread is cut to disperse water, which is what a wet Canadian footpath asks of it.
What you actually lift
8 lb, which is the whole point of it.
Weight decides whether a walker comes with you or stays by the door. Every walker on this rail is one we stock.

The day it arrives
Ready out of the box, and 7.5 in when folded.
There is nothing to fit and nothing to tighten. The scissor fold then closes it across the middle in seconds, and at 7.5 in wide it slides in beside a car seat or stands in a hall cupboard.
- ✓Arrives fully assembledNo tools and no setup on day one
- ✓Folded, 7.5 in wide by 26.2 in long by 20.5 in highFolded size
- ✓The carton, 21.5 in by 7.1 in by 28.5 inWhat comes to the door
Part way closed. The two sides come together across the middle, which is how a walker with a seat gets this narrow.
Will it fit you
Handles that wind from 33.1 to 36 in.
Drive fit this walker to adults from 4'9" to 6'7". Our own check is stricter, because we want the grips to land at the crease of your wrist with adjustment left at both ends.
iWhich band to go by. Ours is the teal one, the stricter check. Inside it, nothing has to be wound to its limit for the handles to land right.
For the record
The whole list, in one place.
