Glide Set - Universal Fit - Makes Walker Use Easier and Safer on All Surfaces (2 Pack)

These replaced the use of tennis balls.The balls lasted a month or so, even on carpet floors. Cement and Asphalt didn't last a week. But these things are still going strong after 3 months. I think the bumpers might be oversized, but that doesn't effect anything. Easy to install. Quiet. Lightweight. Non-marring.

Easy to put on, seem durable and walker glides safely and easily

Whenever I bought walker skis(I have bought at leat 10), if I happen to touch the tip, it would eventually fall off. They have often become useless without that tip. Also the would be difficult to put on and off a walker. I was amazed that these were easy to put on my walker. So far, they are great. I haven't had any trouble, but watch out for rugs. You may have to lift your walker over them

I've had this glide set for only a few days, but I like them already. Installing them was a little different, but easy, and I find them amusing because they look like miniature bowling balls on the back legs of my walker. Fortunately, they are soft, so when I bump into something, or kick them, as I am prone to do, nothing is marked or hurt. These gliders glide perfectly, and help with balance, but they are not exactly what I call quiet. Nevertheless, a good purchase.

I've used a walker for several years, and have tried MANY options for the back feet. I wore through tennis balls in a matter of weeks, if not days, and most "glides" also wore down pretty quickly.The Walker Buddies aren't cheap at $20+, but after 9 months, I'm more than sold, and have finally stopped wasting money trying to find something that works - these do, very well, both indoors and outside. The visible black balls simply protect the walls and moulding in your house from damage, but the real key is the VERY heavy-duty white nylon sliders on the bottom. In 9 months, I've only worn them down less than 1/16th inch, and have over 1/4"left.I found them very easy to assemble, and they've NEVER come apart. I suspect that most of the low-star ratings complaining about "falling apart" were never put together correctly in the first place. It's true, they may not fit all walker legs, but if yours fall into the 1" to 1 1/8" range that their "question section" states, BUY THEM - you'll be happy you did.

I used them on my walker. Thought it was a wise purchase. Not. Didn’t hold up. Disc on the buttom(plastic) came off without realizing it came off until I came inside and started across my hardwood floors. Let your imagination go with it.

I just recently started using a folding walker and I received one with the little skies in the back. Pain in the fanny! They hooked onto everything in site. Any low hanging cords or rugs were a constant challenge! Tried the tennis balls, and they soon became frayed on the bottoms when used outdoors. Got these walker buddezz and the problems with using a walker became much easier. Easy to install. They work well indoors as well as outdoors. Now if I could get my family to keep the kids toys and dogs outta of my way. I'd be a happy camper. Also would recommend the swivel wheels with the wheel locks to add on the walker. It makes maneuvering much easier and is still lite weight.

This is just my opinion and others may have a better experience with the product. These skids install easily and are very secure. It's too bad that the company decided to ruin a great product with black outer sleeves/"bumpers" the size of a softball -- that's a little exaggerated but not much. I found that they interfere with fully closing the walker for transport or for assisting in standing up. They also seem to attract bumping into everything and are all in all clumsy. A sleeve smaller in size made of the same material would seem to hold just as well and be less cumbersome.

these sliders slide very good and last a long time
