I got these for my walker after trying tennis balls and ski glides. I needed these so that I could use the walker inside and outside the house. These were the BEST ones I found that were durable to a good degree, didn't come off the leg and didn't get caught on rugs and door lips.
I love the durability of these. I replace them every couple of months but that's because I use them extensively on road and sidewalk pavements. With the way I use my walker, the white part gets worn down on the bottom. If I only used them inside my home, I suspect they would last forever and after using them for about a year, I have not noticed any wear and tear on my laminate inside my house.
They are easy to put on and take off the walker. I can change them out in seconds.
On the CON side, I have gotten grass caught in between the two parts when walking across grass and they have gotten caught on one type of door mat. The kind is the type usually inside store doors and have the thin rubber border around the rug portion. The rubber portion slips inside between the yellow and white sections. See the attached photo for an idea of the type of rug I have had problems with.
LOVE these for my walker and am ordering more now!

Bought these for my mother's walker and they are the best yet that we've tried. First, we used the plastic type that looks like a ski. Well, the screw on the underside scratched her wood flooring horribly. Second, we tried the tennis ball style. The walker leg wore through the tennis ball within a month. So, jumped back on to Amazon and found these coasters with great reviews. She's been using these about a month and there is no sign of them wearing out. If and when they do, we will buy another set of these for sure!

So we recently relocated to a house with beautiful hardwood floors, no laminate here. My elderly father lives with us and uses a walker to get around. Upon moving, I provided tennis ball style walker caps for him in hopes that he wouldnt destroy our floors. After several weeks of kicking and screaming, he convinced me his nylon skis are so smooth, they would do no harm to the expensive hardwoods. WRONG! After two weeks I awoke one morning to find a trail of pretty deep scratches on the floor. They followed his typical morning path of coffee-TV. I pointed this out and began the search for a new cap for his walker.

It seems that for some reason, the entire walker community is anti tennis ball. Not sure why, they didnt scratch the floor at all. My father stated they do pull a little when on a carpet (we have an area rug in his bedroom and his living room). In my search, I came across these. Now granted I wish that they were not "tennis ball yellow". I am certain if I showed my father the package, he would dismiss them at once because of the mention of the word "tennis ball". Aside from that, my floors have let out a sigh of relief. They really do work. THe cost is low so that dont mind having a few spare pairs around.

As for outside use, I cannot speak to that. Dad has an inside walker, a garage to get to the car walker and a get out of the car and go places walker. All with different caps.

Bottom line is these are a great value if you have hardwoods and work as stated. Just please change the name of the color or add some options so that we can maintain stylish walker tips!
