Some of the walkers are wheeled type, so you will also need to pay attention to the wheels and their bearings. Whether the wheels roll fluently and the bearings are stable or not will affect the process of using a walker. If they are stuck or broken, try to add some lubricants or replace them as soon as possible.
Take care of the height of the legs if your walker is height adjustable, whether the function is normal and the lock point is secure should be noticed. If the walker has a cushion, it should be checked whether the cushion is damaged to prevent falls and other situations caused by damage when using it.
Last but not least, during our daily use of walkers, we might overlook the importance of cleaning. Regular cleaning can not only extend the life of the aids but also reduce bacterial and viral adhesion. Normally, you can simply use water to wipe the dirt and contamination, the walker should generally clean the contact area between the main body and the handle, and then leave it for a while before use.
