Drive Medical Adult Anterior Walker – 400 lb, Adjustable 29"-36"
Drive Medical™ Adult Anterior Walker (400 lb Weight Capacity)
Posture-Centered 360-Degree Frame, Heavy-Duty Steel Construction, Adjustable Spring-Tension Brakes, Tool-Free Height Adjustability, and Self-Standing Fold
Standard medical walkers often force users to stoop forward or push controls far in front of their natural stride, leading to poor postural alignment, fatigue, and heightened fall risk during gait training. The Drive Medical™ Adult Anterior Walker (CE 1000 BK) solves this challenge by positioning the user directly in the center of a fully supportive, surround-style steel frame architecture.
Constructed from durable steel coated in a scratch-resistant Silver Vein finish, this adult anterior walker supports up to 400 lbs while promoting an upright, natural walking gait. The handlebar adjusts tool-free in 1-inch increments from 29 to 36 inches to provide a tailored ergonomic fit. Equipped with customizable spring-tension brakes to regulate rolling speed, non-marring neoprene wheels that transition smoothly across indoor and outdoor surfaces, and a self-standing folding design, this walker ensures safe, confident daily movement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the benefit of an anterior walker compared to a standard walker?
A: An anterior walker surrounds the user so they walk inside the frame rather than pushing behind it. This configuration provides 360-degree support, prevents users from hunching forward, and fosters a natural, upright posture.
Q: How do I adjust the rolling speed on this walker?
A: The wheels feature an adjustable spring-tension mechanism. Caregivers or users can tighten or loosen the spring tension screws to set the exact level of rolling resistance required for gait control.
Q: Does this walker stay upright when folded?
A: Yes. The frame features a self-standing fold mechanism, allowing it to remain upright on its own when collapsed for easy closet storage or loading into a car trunk.
