Rehasense Navigator Air Outdoor Forearm Rollator

Rehasense Navigator Air Outdoor Forearm Rollator

The Rehasense Navigator Air combines forearm support with large soft PU wheels for supported walking outdoors. Its aluminium frame, extended wheelbase and 200 kg user capacity suit people who need a supportive walking position and room to move.

This outdoor forearm rollator is also known as a gutter arm walker or gutter frame. Its padded gutter arms provide forearm support while the large soft PU wheels suit outdoor walking.

This Large Champagne configuration includes fixed forearm supports, a standard seat, swivel backrest, safety strap, removable shopping bag and walking stick holder. Rotating forearm supports are an optional accessory.

Key Features

• Padded gutter arms (forearm supports) with adjustable height and independently positioned handles.
• Large 28.5 cm front and 23.5 cm rear soft PU wheels.
• 200 kg maximum user weight.
• 53 cm wide seat, 62 cm seat height and swivel backrest.
• Folding frame with Click & Safe catch.
• Lockable hand brakes, kerb step pedal and reflective details.
• Removable 5 kg capacity shopping bag and walking stick holder.

Forearm Support for Outdoor Walking

The Navigator Air is designed for people who benefit from padded gutter-arm support but need to travel beyond smooth indoor floors. Its 28.5 cm front and 23.5 cm rear soft PU wheels roll over outdoor joints and minor surface irregularities more easily than the 20 cm wheels used on many everyday rollators. The extended wheelbase also creates a substantial, steady platform.

“Gutter arm walker”, “gutter frame”, “forearm walker” and “forearm rollator” are common names for this type of aid. The forearms rest in the pads while the hands reach the brake handles, distributing support differently from a standard hand-grip walker. Correct pad height and handle position are essential for posture, braking and steering.

Fixed Supports, Fit and Resting

The local Navigator Air configuration has fixed forearm supports. Optional rotating supports may suit some users, but they change the way the arms are positioned and should be chosen with clinical advice. The listed pad height of 98–117 cm and handle height of 102–121 cm need to be checked against the individual rather than relying only on stated user-height guidance.

A 53 cm-wide seat and swivel backrest provide a place for stationary rest. Lock both parking brakes before sitting and do not use the rollator as a wheelchair or allow another person to push an occupied seat.

Navigator Air Compared with Indoor Forearm Walkers

The Navigator / Server W is the lighter indoor-focused folding option with 20 cm wheels and a 150 kg capacity. The Platform rehabilitation rollator uses four small swivelling castors and a rigid frame for supervised indoor therapy. Navigator Air is the larger outdoor choice, with a 200 kg capacity, large soft wheels and a 12 kg product weight before the bag.

Its extra wheel size and 69 cm overall width improve outdoor capability but also require more doorway, turning and vehicle-storage space. Measure the routes and transport method that will be used most often.

Fitting and Use

Have a clinician assess suitability and set the support height and handle position. Keep all four wheels in contact with the ground, lock the brakes before sitting and use the seat only while stationary. Check fitted dimensions against doorways and transport space.
