The standard nitro walker comes in 3 colors. Those colors are red (most popular), black and white. This standard walker also comes in 3 different height options.

The Hemi height Nitro has a seat to floor distance of 18 inches. It weights 16.2 lbs. It has a handle height adjustment of 28.5 inches to 31.5 inches. The wheels are the same on all the 3 models and are 10 inches by 3 inches. The overall product width is 23 inches and is made of aluminum. The product weight capacity is 300 lbs. You can find all three colors of the Nitro Hemi Height rollators listed below.
