How can i prevent my walker from getting stuck on the plush carpet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bigger-footings: Foot-covers/adapters which you can purchase and attach to the "feet of your walker" to make the footing larger thus less likely to get stuck to the rug. It is a rather easy fix. Your walker seller/provider may have those! good luck.
