A walker that has wheels to facilitate its movement when it is not being relied upon as a primary means of support and that has brakes to hold said wheels against rotation when it is. The wheels are arranged in a tricycle configuration and brakes are associated with the two rear wheels. A pair of brake pads flank each wheel and are held into braking relation to each wheel by a pair of spring members, there being one spring for each brake, when little or no weight is applied to the walker by the user. The springs are compressed and the wheels are free to rotate when the weight of the user is applied to the walker. The user's forearms rest in padded armrests and hand grips are provided forwardly of those arm rests. The walker is adjustable in height and is foldable when not in use.
