I hate using a rollator, but decided that a smaller 3-wheeler would be easier to maneuver through narrow spaces and would look more "fashionable" than my wider plain black 4-wheeler by Drive. I've looked at the Winnie for a couple of years, saw this one on sale, and decided to throw vanity to the wind and buy it. In the pic, the steel frame looks tan and the plaid Velcro bag that comes with it looks (to some) similar to a faux Burberry pattern. PROS: Fast shipping, well packaged. Easy to quickly assemble, sturdy once assembled correctly. Height of handlebars can be quickly raised or lowered. Wheels are a good size for indoor or outdoor (on smooth surfaces). Hand brake is solid. Walks and turns smoothly. Navigates narrower spaces than my 4-wheeler, which is not large. Rear wheels are still not much narrower than my larger Drive, but the single wheel in front allows it to get through tighter spaces easier. CONS: As stated above, in the pic the Winnie appears tan or beige; however the one I received is bright yellow, like a school bus. Not a deal-breaker, but I was hoping to draw attention away from the fact that I'm using a mobility device, not draw attention to it. In other pics, this Winnie Supreme is shown with a horizontal bar across the bottom rear (between the back wheels), but this one doesn't have that, so I'm guessing it's an older model. The most disappointing part of it is the tan, black and white plaid carry-all bag that really set it apart from plain one color rollators with black bags. This one is roomy inside, but made of cheap-feeling plastic with a triangular-shaped top that is cut too small to completely cover the inside of the bag. I knew before ordering that there was no seat with the 3-wheeled rollator, but didn't realize how much I'd miss having one. It will be okay for brief walks, but not for ones where I may need to take a break and sit down. My fault. Word of warning regarding assembly: I read reviews that said the Winnie is tippy, prone to falling forward and dangerous. At first, I found it exactly that way, then a friend who was here when I put it together realized that the bottom legs MUST be extended backward then locked into place, which took about a minute once we figured out why it tipped forward. If one fails to extend those legs and tries to walk with it, they are likely to fall. Once legs are extended, it's completely solid, sturdy and safe. I'll keep it since it was on sale, but am highly disappointed that the Winnie Supreme I received is "school bus yellow" with a bag (that I hoped would be canvas) made of cheap ill-fitting plastic. I may spray paint it tan. I'd recommend that anyone considering buying one based on the online pictures, call Drive or the reseller beforehand and ask if the model has changed. As a mobility walker, it's lightweight, easy to maneuver. Does the job.
