A rollator is a mobility device equipped with wheels on all its legs, typically featuring a seat, handlebars, and hand brakes, which allows for easier maneuverability and can be used for resting.

Rollators/Walkers are generally suited for those who need support but have sufficient balance, while standard walkers are better for those who require more stability.
