Our aging process makes some things more challenging than when we were younger. Simple things like getting around the house or going to the mailbox can be challenging as you age. Rollator must be easy to adjust and assemble because that is a requirement our customers have. Most rollator users want their equipment to be customized and easy to use.
Many people wonder if the seat height can be adjusted. Several aspects of the Nova STAR 8 make it an outstanding rollator. Aside from aesthetics or 'new' brakes or wheels, there are a few significant differences between new rollators.
Nova STAR 8 Rollator is unique and impressive among the walking aids near me. The rollators like this offer feature that older sites/default/files/2023-03/rollator_nova.webpwalking aids could only dream of. Here are a few of the impressive features you can expect.
What is Nova Rollator?
With the STAR, you get all the great features you love about the STAR but with a sleeker frame design, a lock and lift folding pin, and the ability to fold, lock, and load the NEW STAR in one motion.
There's more to come! This model is more flexible, offers more options, and has more colors and styles. This Quick-Fit design allows the user to get a perfect fit in seconds, making it so convenient for travel, adventure, and those awkward spaces.
In addition, the STAR is a fantastic value that will last a lifetime because we believe everyone deserves to shine.
Quick-fit easy-adjust buttons
Adjustable seat and handle height has been a big request from our customers! It is possible to adjust the height of Nova's STAR 8 with a single button press. Like traditional walkers, the user presses the buttons, pulls the tubing to the desired setting, and waits for them to settle into place.
At home, most users won't need assistance adjusting the walker; the process is straightforward. Three different settings can be selected with the Quick Fit Easy-Adjust Buttons; 19 12", 20 12", and 21 12".
Almost anywhere in between is possible with the eight different handle height settings. It is recommended for people between 5'3" and 6'2" heights. However, people from 5'0" to 6'4" may also use it if they enjoy the feel.
The most portable rollator
A hidden benefit of Nova's Quick Fit Easy-Adjust Buttons is that the STAR 8 can fit almost anywhere! It's a feature most people don't think about when buying a rollator.
Customers can quickly assemble the STAR 8 and carry it anywhere from a trunk to an overstuffed suitcase once they have become familiar with the assembly process.
There are seven key components to the STAR 8: the seat, the two front legs, the two back legs, and the two handles. With all of these pieces separate, older rollators could only dream about fitting in places where these new rollators can. STAR 8 is an excellent mobility option if you travel a lot.
Strong and safe
Most of the adjustable roller walkers we stocked in the past seemed flimsy and dangerous. We have seen many customers rolling adjustable rollators into our store rated for 250 pounds weight limit.
A 300-pound weight capacity is considered the standard weight capacity for medical equipment. Structural integrity is usually compromised for other reasons, such as reduced weight or smaller wheels, when a product has a 250 lbs capacity.
STAR 8's weight capacity is 300 pounds, just like all previous Nova rollators. To create the STAR 8, new oval tubing was selected for the frame, making it highly sturdy and adjustable.
This walker's oval tubing makes it stand out in a crowd, an added advantage. It's no longer necessary to lose your walker at crowded events! The STAR 8 weighs only 17 lbs, about half as much as Nova's older, comparable walkers.
Those who struggle to lift rollators out of cars will appreciate the sturdy construction without adding too much weight.
New features
It is hard to tell one rollator from another on the market today. Almost all brands and models are identical in how they roll, fold, and look. This rollator has several features that make it stand out not only from Nova's other models but also from other rollators.
On STAR 8, our team loves the foot pedals on both sides. According to many of our customers, the 8" wheels on our rollators are insufficient for traversing uneven terrains, such as gravel alleys and parking lots that need to be repaired.
With the STAR 8, patients not only have the benefit of 8" wheels but also come with dual foot pedals for extra leverage over cracks and thresholds.
The new bag liner with every STAR 8 is sure to be a customer favorite. Under the seat of most older walkers, usually used to hold a few delicate items while on the go, there is a flimsy bag.
The bottoms of these bags are almost universally weak, which leads to quick wear. The bag liner with every STAR 8 reduces weight and increases durability so that you can carry more in your bags!
By using the bag liner, Nova can fold up their walkers more quickly than they would by using the bag handle alone. Despite seeming like a big problem, the new carrying handle provides the perfect solution.
This model has an extended metal handle that makes picking it up and putting it in the car more accessible than any model before.
The best old features
With the STAR 8, you get all the features of previous Nova rollators. Feather-Touch brakes are standard on Nova. Using the feather-touch brakes, patients can quickly stop and lock while sitting down, ensuring their safety.
Patients can lean back in their rollators without fear of falling out thanks to a padded, fold-up back guard. Rollators with eight-inch wheels provide greater control for users.
Choosing the right rollator
It is essential to consider what is important to you when choosing a Rollator—for example, having a bag or pouch big enough to shop at a grocery or a local store, or even something as simple as transporting your food and food storage in your vehicle. It is, therefore, worthwhile to consider Nova STAR 8.
