Set to your height before you leave
Used & Refurbished Walkers and Rollators in Toronto
Rollators, walkers and knee walkers for a fraction of the price of new. One year warranty, and adjusted to fit you.
Two Things Decide Whether a Rollator Helps or Hurts
Rollators are the most commonly bought and most commonly mis-set piece of mobility equipment there is.
Handle height should sit at the crease of your wrist when you stand upright with your arms relaxed. Set too low, you stoop, which puts your weight in front of your feet and causes back and shoulder pain. Set too high, your shoulders hunch. Either way balance gets worse rather than better, and most people never realise the walker is the cause.
Seat height decides whether you can actually rest. If your feet dangle, you cannot brace or push up, so the seat goes unused and you have bought a heavier walking frame.
We set both before you leave, and most of our refurbished equipment comes with a one year warranty.
What We Refurbish
Four Wheel Rollators
With a seat and brakes, for walking any real distance. The seat is the point: being able to rest anywhere is what lets people go further and stay out longer.
Two Wheel Walkers
Front wheels with rear glides, for someone who needs to lean on the frame and take real weight through it. A rollator is not designed for that.
Knee Walkers
For a foot, ankle or lower leg injury where the other leg is fine. Far easier than crutches, and usually needed for weeks rather than years, which makes buying used particularly sensible.
Parts & Accessories
Baskets, trays, brake cables, tips and wheels. Often a repair brings a walker back into proper use for a fraction of replacing it.
Stock changes constantly. Tell us your height and where you walk, and we will tell you what we have that suits.
Indoors, Outdoors, or Both
Wheel size is the practical difference between rollator types, and where you walk decides it.
Mostly Indoors
Smaller wheels are lighter, narrower and turn far more easily in a hallway, a lift or a shop aisle. Easier to lift into a car too.
Mostly Outdoors
Larger wheels roll over pavement joints, kerb cuts and gravel instead of stopping dead at them. Heavier and wider, but far better on real ground.
Your Height
Rollators come in different frame sizes, not just adjustable handles. A shorter person on a standard frame ends up with dangling feet on the seat; a taller person stoops.
Who Lifts It
If it goes in a car regularly, weight matters more than anything on the spec sheet. A rollator too heavy to lift gets left at home, and then it helps nobody.
A Rollator Is Not a Walking Frame
This distinction causes more falls than any other misunderstanding in mobility equipment.
A rollator steadies you and carries your things. It is not built to be leaned on heavily, and putting real weight on one that is not braked is a common way people fall.
If someone genuinely needs to take weight through their arms, a two wheel walker or a walking frame is the right aid, even though it is slower and has no seat.
Tell us how the person walks now, honestly, and we will tell you which they need rather than which they would prefer.
Funding a Walker in Ontario
The Assistive Devices Program lists wheeled walkers and covers a share of the cost for eligible Ontario residents, subject to an assessment, with the category determined by the assessor.
Programs differ on whether refurbished equipment qualifies and some fund only new devices, which is often why buying used makes sense for someone paying themselves or needing a walker immediately.
Buying Used, or Renting
If the need is short, renting is often the better answer.
A knee walker after an ankle injury, or a rollator for a few weeks after surgery, is a classic case for renting rather than buying something that will be in the garage by spring.
Buying refurbished makes sense for an ongoing need, and walkers are among the most affordable things we refurbish. Most come with a one year warranty.

Used Walker & Rollator FAQs
Do used walkers come with a warranty?
Yes. Most of our refurbished equipment comes with a one year warranty, and an extended warranty is available for longer cover. Ask us for the terms on the walker you are considering.
How much does a used rollator cost in Toronto?
Considerably less than new. Walkers and rollators are among the most affordable things we refurbish, which makes them a sensible used purchase, particularly for a temporary need. Call 905-615-9302 and we will tell you what is in stock.
How do I know what height it should be?
Stand upright with your arms relaxed at your sides. The handles should sit at the crease of your wrist. If you find yourself stooping over a rollator, the handles are too low, and that is the commonest cause of back and shoulder pain in people using one.
What is the difference between a walker and a rollator?
A rollator has four wheels, a seat and brakes, and steadies you while walking. A two wheel walker is designed to be leaned on and take real weight through the arms. If you need weight-bearing support, a rollator is the wrong choice.
Should I get big wheels or small?
Large wheels roll over pavement joints, kerb cuts and gravel, so they suit outdoor walking. Small wheels are lighter and turn more easily indoors. Think about where you actually walk most.
Is a knee walker better than crutches?
For most people with a foot, ankle or lower leg injury where the other leg is sound, yes. Crutches are tiring and hard on the hands and shoulders. A knee walker is usually needed for weeks rather than years, so renting one is often the sensible choice.
Can I get funding for a walker?
The Assistive Devices Program lists wheeled walkers and covers a share of the cost for eligible Ontario residents, subject to assessment. Some programs fund only new equipment. See our funding page or call and we will tell you what is realistic.
Can you repair the walker I already have?
Yes. We carry brake cables, wheels, tips, baskets and trays, and our technicians work across the GTA. A repair is often a fraction of the cost of replacing it. See repairs and maintenance.
