This walking frame is designed for children needing rehabilitation to regain mobility and independence at home. Its key benefit is providing safe and adjustable support during the recovery process. A potential caveat is that it is intended for indoor use primarily. The frame is constructed from lightweight aluminum, features non-slip ferrules, six height adjustments, and ergonomic hand grips, supporting up to 180 kg.

This walking frame is designed for paediatric use and is adjustable to accommodate growing children. It is not tied to a specific age but rather to the child's height and mobility needs, within the specified weight limit.
The frame is primarily designed for indoor use on smooth, flat surfaces. The wheels and non-slip ferrules offer optimal performance in home environments. Outdoor use on uneven terrain or slopes is not recommended.
Clean the frame with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Dry it thoroughly afterwards. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the material.
The walking frame has a robust construction and can support a weight limit of up to 180 kg (approximately 28 stone).
The frame features six adjustable height settings, ranging from 590mm to 690mm.
The walking frame comes mostly assembled. The main task is to adjust the height settings to the appropriate level for the user.
The product dimensions are approximately 590mm (height range), 550mm (width), and 470mm (depth).
Ensure all six height adjustment settings are securely locked at the same level on all legs. Check that the non-slip ferrules are firmly attached and not worn down. Verify the weight limit is not exceeded.
Inspect the wheels for any debris, hair, or obstructions. Clean the wheels and their housing. If the issue persists, the wheel mechanism may require professional inspection.
Check if the hand grips are designed to be removed or adjusted. If they are loose and cannot be tightened, contact customer support for assistance or replacement parts.
Worn or damaged ferrules compromise safety. Replace them immediately with compatible non-slip rubber ferrules designed for walking frames.
Setup: The walking frame comes largely pre-assembled. The primary setup involves adjusting the height settings to suit the child's needs. To adjust, locate the height adjustment pins or knobs on the legs, release them, slide the leg sections to the desired height, and re-secure the pins firmly. Ensure all four legs are set to the same height for stability.
Compatibility: This walking frame is designed for use on smooth, flat indoor surfaces such as carpets, hardwood floors, and linoleum. It is not intended for use on rough outdoor terrain, inclines, or very uneven surfaces where the wheels or ferrules may not provide adequate grip or stability.
Care: To maintain the frame's condition and ensure safety, regular cleaning and checks are recommended. Wipe the frame down with a damp cloth and mild detergent as needed, then dry thoroughly. Periodically inspect the rubber ferrules for wear and tear, and ensure they are securely attached. Check that the wheels spin freely and are free from debris. Verify that all height adjustment mechanisms are locked securely before each use. Store the frame in a dry place when not in use.
