Hello @Stellabella

Welcome to the online community and thank you for joining us.

So you have osteoarthritis in both of your knees and are thinking about purchasing a rollator to help you with your walking. You are wondering if anyone has any recommendations or suggestions that will help you make your purchase.

I'm sure many of our members would be able to help with your query. I, myself, do not have any experience of rollator's so don't feel like I can comment. I have, however found some information that I have attached below that I think may be of interest to you. In the Living with Arthritis section, the author goes through different types of aides that people find helpful. It may be an interesting read for you.

Please do let us know how you are getting on and I hope you find the right rollator for your needs.

Take care
