The walker legs work fine at first, but I’m getting a headache staring at them because they’re uncanny. Also, funny that the AI “knows” the rear legs should have tennis balls, so it colored the feet that way.
I actually bought this for a minute because his dementia is causing visible issues with his stride. Watch his swing his right leg in a semi-circle. Doctors say that’s a clear sign.

The back legs have standard rubber stoppers. Tennis balls are a hack people use when those wear out.
Yeah, but they don’t come from the factory colored “tennis ball yellow”. :)
That’s dirty beige.
I found it funny that the shelves at the store that had walkers also had tennis balls…
No the tennis balls slide better on hard floors. The rubber feet are usually still under the tennis balls.
Source: I had old relatives who lived in nursing homes with these. They got the tennis balls on day one with the walker.
Also, tennis balls vary when it comes to grip depending on the thickness of the felt covering.

Didn’t know that, the home they were in had a stash of balls ready when we needed them.
When my grandmother first had to have a walker basically the first thing she did was put tennis balls on it.
Non-eucludian walker. Some fucking Lovecraft style geometry right there.
