can the front legs be switched side-to-side so the wheels are "inboard" and don't stick out as they do?

Yes I find it's too wide to get through some doors. Need to juggle the frame around to enter. Also the frame is far to wide anyway, it needs to be made in two sizes. Not everyone is so overweight!

The lower parts of all four legs are removable, so you could put the lower parts of the two front legs (which have the wheels) on the back and the lower parts of the two back legs on the front. I am not sure that doing so would be wise. Having the wheels in front helps with control. If you them on the back you might have a dangerous decrease in the degree of control -- and of stability. If it were me, I wouldn't put the wheels on the back.

We did not try it. We think it might make the walker off balance. Our first walker had wheels on the front. It would not fit through the bathroom door. The woman from Home Health showed us how to swap the front legs so that the wheels were inside instead of outside. We had already ordered this walker by that time.

Sure. The legs, front and back, have the same diameter and alignment mechanisms. Maybe the ski pads will be angled wrong when you switch them but that will be easy enough to rectify. Taking it a step further, I replaced front and back legs with larger units thus giving myself larger wheels on all four corners as I find the ski pad thing unworkable. The Standers unit uses much smaller diameter tubing than just about all other walkers so I spent an afternoon in the local hardware store making up shims from pipe fittings and pieces of a bicycle inner tube.

Our trundles were purchased from Room doctor.com and I am sure they would change the direction of the wheels if you were to ask.

Yes, but that is an expensive option. Use the composite wheels which are way less expensive and designed for that option.

I think so. The black flat things that attach to the bottom of the legs screw in. So I think you could get wheels that screw in if they're small enough.

Yes. The unit expands to accommodate different wheel widths. It has been very stable. I would suggest putting the rear in the unit for more stability.

Yes, the front wheels do pivot, which is a great improvement over non-pivoting wheels. You can now turn corners without raising the front two wheels.

This is probably not the board for you then. Going slightly uphill, two pushes won't get you very far. It's something that can be adjusted if you change the wheels maybe

Maybe, but I really don't see any way to lock the legs into place. I believe it would be precarious, at best, if you did so.

With a little ingenuity I guess you could. Drill a hole on each leg then attach swivel wheels. It should work. Good luck

I'd say it probably could be swapped, but you wouldn't want the wider one in the front. The toddler wouldn't be able to make it go. My granddaughter (just turned 2) loves it because she can reach her legs out in front and pull forward quickly to make it go. She absolutely loves it and goes all over their house -- probably outside on driveway too, but I haven't seen her do that. This scooter is very well made and I would highly recommend it over any of the other plastic ones. Go for it -- it's really worth it!

Yes, you can slide both the front and back rack forward and back and then it gets tightened in that spot so it doesn't obviously move......i think there is set places that they should go if you don't have any cargo on top that i guess reduces any wind noise or something, but I havn't had any problem with needing wind/noise reduction.

Yes, the feet are screwed in, so you could put some wheels in as long as the threads are the same size. Shouldn't be impossible, but most of the wheels I've seen at the hardware store are not threaded, they push into the leg rather than screw in. Hope this helps.

No. And that's about the only thing I'd change about it. I mistakenly thought I'd add wheels to it, but there isn't a place to attach them.

The rack cannot be swapped to a different side. If you leave it off there will be holes. I left a rack off of one of mine and set the rack side next to the sofa. The holes are not noticeable.
