Mobility is the most important prerequisite for maintaining an independent lifestyle well into old age. Most older people manage this very well nowadays – more than 90 percent of those over 65 live in their own homes in largely good health and take care of themselves. But what happens when it becomes increasingly difficult to leave the house to meet friends or run errands? Then it is good to know that there are useful everyday helpers that you can rely on. One such support, in the truest sense of the word, is the rollator, which has transformed from a stigmatizing "old-timer" into an indispensable vehicle in just a few years.
Erhard Hackler,
Executive Board of the German Seniors League e.V.:
"A rollator not only provides support and safety but also gives people with limited mobility a sense of freedom. Those who have poor eyesight wear glasses – those who are not very mobile should just as naturally use a rollator. My tip: When buying a rollator, pay attention to quality – for more safety and joy in life!"
Currently, there are nearly two million rollators in Germany – every year, an additional 500,000 units are sold. The reasons for this boom are obvious: Against the backdrop of demographic change, there are more and more older people using a rollator and driving the change in image numerically alone. Additionally, the rolling walking aid has been continuously developed in recent years – not least thanks to the optical and technical innovations of some manufacturers who have addressed and implemented their customers' desires for safety, comfort, and a more modern design. The rollator has arrived in society and has secured a firm place in the street scene!
