I ordered a frame, because my mobility is very restricted, and I was using a walking stick for inside my home, or using door frames and furniture to move around, this was proving dangerous, as I have had 2 near misses of falling flat on my face.
The frame, is nice and lightweight, not flimsy, not heavy, so it's very easy to use in the home, and it's not massively wide, so I can negotiate about the home with ease. I love that it folds up, allowing to either storing in a cupboard, or putting in the boot of a car.. it is very easy to fold, and easy to pull, to make it stand. it is durable, and sturdy and an absolute game changer for me.
Strengths
absolute must if you are struggling with mobility.
Weaknesses
no weaknesses that I have come across

Excellent walking frame
Feels very well built and sturdy. It’s also very light for lifting for each step when getting around. Good adjustable height settings. It’s also easy to fold by just pressing two buttons. This makes for easier storage or taking out in a car for shopping, holidays etc. Too early to judge durability but overall I would highly recommend it.
Strengths
Adjustability. Easy folding mechanism
Weaknesses
None so far.
