Built for real life

What stands out

●
Folds side to side to 9"
It closes across rather than forward, so it stands up narrow beside a chair or slots into the gap behind a car seat.
●
10" front wheels
The front wheels are 10" and the rear are 8", both TPR. A larger wheel rides over a crack or a threshold instead of stopping against it.
●
Hidden brake cables
The cables run inside the frame, so there is nothing looping out to catch on a door handle or a table leg.
●
An 18" seat
The seat is 18" across and 11" deep, with a padded backrest to lean into while you rest.
●
Detachable backrest
The backrest adjusts for height and tilt, and it lifts off when you want the folded rollator smaller.
The Hieline Take

The Samba is the rollator to pick when the ground is not smooth. Its front wheels are 10", and a bigger wheel drops into a crack or rides over a threshold instead of stopping dead against it. The rest of the design is quiet and sensible. The brake cables run inside the frame rather than looping out where they catch on door handles, the backrest lifts off when you want the folded package smaller, and the bag under the seat zips shut. It folds side to side to 9" across, so it stands up narrow beside a chair instead of lying flat. The honest comparison is with our OmniX 012, which weighs 12.8 lbs. against this one's 14.3 lbs. and costs less. Take the OmniX if lifting it into a car is the hard part of your day, and take the Samba if the sidewalk is.

Straight talk

Is it right for you?

A good fit if you

  • walk outdoors where there are cracks, thresholds and rough sidewalks, which is what the 10" front wheels are for
  • want the brake cables out of the way, because they run inside the frame
  • need it to stand narrow beside a chair, since it folds side to side to 9"
  • want a seat wide enough to rest on properly at 18"
  • weigh up to 300 lbs.

Look elsewhere if you

  • want the lightest one, because the OmniX 012 is 12.8 lbs. against this one's 14.3 lbs.
  • want to spend less, since the OmniX 012 and the RollaLite 007 both cost less
  • need a seat lower than 21.6", in which case look at the RollaLite 007 at 20"
  • weigh more than 300 lbs., in which case look at the RollaMax 036 at 600 lbs.
