Is the difference btween the regular Drive Rollator &amp; the Duet-- the 8" wheels? And the footrest / armrests?

Yes, the handles in the back make this easier when the rollator is used as a wheelchair. This is not as heavy as a wheelchair, folds up to fit in the car trunk, you also do not have to worry about finding a wheelchair when you go out. I did not want to purchase a regular wheelchair, they are heavy and more clumsy.

No, they have a significantly different roll cage. Straight sides not curved in.

Hello, There really is not much of a difference. On the new model, we changed the seat a bit not to include the plastic cushon/pad. Also, one of the hardware pieces changes from a nut to a bold. We permanently discontinued the black Tricycoo. I think those were the only changes. Are you familiar with the Joovy? We have several other toys as well. I personally love the Bicycoo which is Joovy's balance bike. It is great for speeding up the transition from toddler to bike without training wheels. If you have any more question please respond below in the comments or contact Joovy's Customer Care Center. They love answering any questions you may have. Thanks! Thanks!

The more expensive version has a larger platform and a different headrest. So if you are a large man OU might consider the more expensive version. If you are a woman the less expensive version is fine.

Seller should disclose what model they are selling. I cannot tell. I knew major change from 2010 was better footrest. They had buttons on older models. 2012 had even more improvements.

Interesting. I actually have no idea of what product you will (or have) received. From all I could glean, this rollator looked like the one bought two years earlier, but no. There were many subtle differences . The handles were very shaky and it just "seemed" less confident. But the wheels have not fallen off yet after 4 months or so. I just do not know.

I was going to say a little more but I hit the wrong button. The whole rollator is very easy to turn and back up. Just make sure you have your hands where you can press the breaks in case you need them.

Not sure about the trunk- though it's not much bigger than my Graco capri single stroller (just the larger wheels are a little more bulky), but absolutely get the swivel wheel! The fixed wheel is great for long jogs, but the swivel is very helpful in walking anywhere. Hope this helps!

It performs better in my opinion. Easier to maneuver in establishments. The only value to the wheels I can see is if the person is using them to maneuver. If not then the transport mode is a great option. If I was going off roading, i.e. parks or into grass I would probably put the larger wheel on just for stability.

I have never heard of a three wheel rollator having a seat . If you are able to stand, the three wheel rollator is great item to have. I have neuropathy and I have difficulty with balance. The three wheel rollator has breaks on it so it keeps me from falling. I can fold the rollator, it is light, and put it in the trunk of my car. I have hand controls on my car so the rollator gives me an independence, otherwise, I would not have. You can also push it slightly together and you will be able to get through small places. Just make sure to use your breaks if needed.

I have this one. The wheels are 8 inches which roll great on grass and rugged terrain. Keep in mind that this Tall rollator is designed to adjust for folks about 5'11" to 6'6" in height. I'm 6'5".

single handed fold is a big one. the carrycot plus for the duet has newer features. there were a couple of other smaller changes. not sure if you can get the aerotech tires on the old version.

They both are great wheels. I got this one because of the pedals. They are absolutely awesome! However it lacks "total" compatibility with PlayStation (no PS or share buttons). Which you can still use the controller for. The only dislike I have are the paddle shifters are fixed and do not move with the wheel

Hello, I'm not certain which way the wheels roll, as I returned it the day I received it due to the awful stench, and that it looked nothing like the displayed photo. However, I did purchase a black Samsonite Women's Mobile Office 15.6" for only a few dollars more and I am very satisfied. I'm sorry I couldn't help you with the Kensington product.

I have a Hugo elite with four eight inch wheels. It handles much better on any obstruction it encounters. For some reason, eight inch wheels in front doesn't function as a rollator with four. Might have something to do with having front wheels directly below hand grips. Geometry?.

I don't think there is a big difference. I read some reviews and I know that the front wheel on the older model is a double wheel. I honestly don't remember the other differences but the reviews are really helpful so have a look!

I don't really want to tell you "yes", because I don't have the 2012 version of the stroller which is the new version, but I know that the differences between my version (2009) of the stroller and the new version of the stroller is the wheels, the brake (which is much better on the new version), and the biggest difference is the way the main seat reclines (also better on the new version). Aside from that I don't know of any difference between the versions, which would make me believe that the new version of the stroller will support this rumble seat (and I have not seen other versions of the rumble seat either).
