Question 1

How wide is this walker?  Will it fit through narrow bathroom doors>

Accepted Answer

My toilet door frame is 23 inches wide.  The door doesn't open all the way so the actual clearance is 22".  This rollator is about 24" at its widest point (the wheels in back).  I moved the rear wheels to the inside of the frame on the opposite side.  This makes the rear part to the rollator MUCH narrower and it fit though.  I did need to adjust the cable length by messing with the screws at BOTH ends of the cable, and to temporarily disconnect the screw mounting the handle lever to the rest of the system to be able to reattach the brake cable to the pivoting serrated brake  part.  I think I'll leave some pictures in a review>

Question 2

how much does it weigh

Accepted Answer

My Drive Rollator weighs 13 lbs.  Much lighter then many of the others.  I found it relatively easy to get it in and out of the trunk of my Toyota Camry.

Question 3

Hi.  I have trouble walking because of my back, and I was hoping that I could sit on this seat and "scoot" along with my feet.  Would that work?

Hi Scampernanny, Thanks for your interest in the Drive Medical Aluminum Rollator Walker Fold Up and Removable Back Support, Padded Seat. Drive Medical highly advises against using this rollator while sitting to move yourself. It can be very unsafe as too much weight towards the front or the back could cause the rollator to slip and the placement of the brakes makes it difficult to stop the rollator from the seated position. If you are looking to sit down and use your feet to propel you it is recommended that you look at a wheel chair. Below are links to some wheel chairs that are light in weight and safe to use for your purpose.Link to Silver Sport 1 Wheelchair: http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Medical-Wheelchair-Removable-Footrest/dp/B001HOI7AS/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1418653037&sr=1-1&keywords=ssp118fa-sfLink to Blue Streak Wheelchair: http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Medical-Wheelchair-Detachable-Swing-away/dp/B002VWK1TA/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1418653113&sr=1-1&keywords=bls18fbd-sf
