Dietz tauron|rfa Bariatric XXL Rollator with Forearm Supports

Description

The tauron|rfa is the forearm-support version of the tauron bariatric rollator, for users whose arms, wrists or shoulders cannot comfortably take weight through a standard handle. Soft, three-dimensionally adjustable forearm supports spread the load along the whole forearm rather than through the hand and wrist, which makes a real difference for arthritis, joint pain and reduced grip.

Like the rf, it carries up to 250 kg as standard and can be specified to 300 kg. It carries up to 250 kg as standard and can be specified to 300 kg. Large 10-inch wheels with drum brakes make it equally usable indoors and out.

Its part-folding function is the feature that matters day to day: the frame narrows to 71 cm while still supporting the user, so doorways, hallways and lifts stop being barriers.

Why this is assessed rather than bought off the shelf

Seat width, seat height, back height and the position of the forearm supports all have to match the user. Get them wrong and the frame is unsafe as well as uncomfortable. We measure properly, specify the build, and stand behind it.
