Are Black Friday mobility deals real?
We will know on 27 and 30 November, because we wrote the prices down first. Two weeks before the sale, the record already shows this:
- At one specialist mobility shop, 9 of 14 items cost more on 11 November than on 21 September. Three perching stools went up by between 28% and 120%.
- At a second shop, all 8 items were the same price as on 21 September. Four of them now show a higher “was” price beside the price.
- Amazon already had “Early Black Friday” badges on 3 of the 15 items we compared with those shops. One badge claims 19% off a stool that costs exactly what it did on 21 September.
- Of the 20 scooters, riser recliners and rollators we track on Amazon, 3 were cheaper than on 5 October, 11 were level, 3 were dearer and 3 could not be bought.
So a Black Friday price is only a deal if it is lower than the price before the sale build-up. The tables below give you that price.
What we checked, and what the price index can and cannot do
Our UK mobility equipment price index, last updated on 23 October 2026, gives a typical UK price range for each type of equipment. It does not hold the price of individual products, so it cannot tell you whether one rollator is cheaper this week. We use it as a sense check: a sale price inside the range is normal for that kind of product, and one above it is a premium model, sale or no sale.
For the product prices we used two earlier records of our own:
- the 21 September 2026 prices from our Amazon vs specialist price check, for 14 rollators, transit chairs and perching stools at two specialist shops and on Amazon;
- the 5 October 2026 Amazon prices from our Prime Day deals check, for 20 ranked scooters, riser recliners and rollators.
On 11 November we read every one of those prices again. That gives two prices from before any Black Friday build-up and one from just before the sale.
How we label a price
On 27 and 30 November we read every price again and compare it with 11 November:
- Down means more than 1% cheaper than on 11 November.
- Level means within 1% either way.
- Up means more than 1% dearer.
- Unavailable means no price, out of stock, or a delivery wait of more than a month.
We use 1% so that a few pence on a £2,000 scooter does not count as a deal. Specialist prices are printed in full, including VAT. Amazon prices change by the hour and Amazon does not allow us to print a price we copied by hand, so for Amazon products we show the label and the percentage change only. The live Amazon price is in each product box.
Specialist shops: 22 prices, 21 September and 11 November
Shop A and Shop B are UK mobility retailers that sell the same maker models online. We do not name them, for the same reason as in the September price check: the finding is how prices move before a sale. Prices include VAT and were read from each shop’s own product pages.

Counts on 11 November, against 21 September: Shop A had 2 lower, 3 the same and 9 higher. Shop B had all 8 the same.
Two things in that table matter for Black Friday. First, a “was” price is the shop’s own figure. At Shop A, the Compact Easy Plus rollator showed a “was” price of £191.50 on 11 November, while its price on 21 September was £95.75. Shop B showed “was” prices about 10% above four items whose price had not changed since September. We did not record “was” prices in September, so we cannot say when those were set or whether either shop ever charged them. Second, the one fall at Shop A that matches its own “was” price is real: the M48477 perching stool was £70.19 on 21 September and £55.99 on 11 November.
The Uniscan Triumph is the clearest case for comparing shops. Shop A’s price rose from £292.99 to £539.98. Shop B still sold the same model at £292.99 on the same morning. A 30% Black Friday discount at Shop A would still leave it dearer than Shop B’s ordinary price.
None of this shows that either shop set out to mislead anyone. Prices change for many reasons, including supplier price rises and stock. The point is that a sale price can only be judged against a price from before the sale.
Amazon: Early Black Friday badges were already showing on 11 November
Amazon has not announced its 2026 UK Black Friday Week dates in anything we read on 11 November. In 2025 it ran from 20 November to 1 December. Even so, three of the 15 Amazon listings from our September comparison carried an “Early Black Friday” badge on 11 November:
| Item | Saving the badge claims | Change from our 21 September price | Sold by |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compact perching stool with arms and back (M48477) | 47% | 39% lower | Amazon |
| Compact perching stool with arms and back, blue (M53345) | 19% | 0% (same price) | Amazon |
| NRS Compact Easy Plus rollator (S50608) | 13% | 13% lower | Amazon |
Amazon measures these savings against a “was” price that, according to the listing, is the median price customers paid over a recent period. That can differ from the price on any one day. On the blue M53345 stool, the badge claims 19% off, and the price is exactly what it was on 21 September. On 21 September it was sold by a different seller, at the same price.
Amazon: 20 scooters, riser recliners and rollators we rank
These are the products from our folding scooter, boot scooter, riser recliner and rollator rankings. The “Before the sale” column compares 11 November with our 5 October record, using the same 1% rule. The price index column compares the live price with the typical range for that type of equipment in our 23 October index.

Counts on 11 November, against 5 October: 3 down, 11 level, 3 up and 3 unavailable. The two biggest falls came before any Black Friday badge appeared. The Monarch Smarti Plus was 23% cheaper with no deal badge at all, and the Topro Olympos ATR was 23% cheaper against a “was” price that matched our 5 October record. The Days 100 Series was 18% dearer than on 5 October, when it carried an Early Prime Deal badge.
Nine of the 19 products still listed cost more than the top of the index range for their type. That is expected for carbon-frame rollators and lightweight folding scooters. If one of them is cut in the sale, it can be a real saving and still be a premium price.

Four checks before you buy in a sale
- Find a price from before November. Use the tables on this page, or a screenshot or receipt of your own. A “was” price on the listing is the seller’s figure, and on Amazon it is a median of recent prices.
- Check another shop for the same maker code. In our table the same Uniscan rollator was £539.98 at one shop and £292.99 at another on the same morning.
- Ask for VAT relief if you qualify. On a price that includes 20% VAT, relief takes off one-sixth, which is about 16.7%. That is a bigger saving than many of the badges on this page. Specialist shops usually take it off at the checkout. Amazon refunds it after purchase, and only on some items it sells itself. Our price check explains how each route works.
- Read the delivery and returns terms. A low price on a riser recliner with a six-month dispatch time, or a seller with a 14-day returns window, may not suit you.
Frequently asked questions
Are Black Friday mobility scooter deals real?
Some are. On 11 November 2026, 2 of the 8 folding and boot scooters we track on Amazon were cheaper than on 5 October, 2 were dearer and 4 were level, before any Black Friday badge appeared on them. We check them again on 27 and 30 November and will publish the counts here.
When is Black Friday 2026 in the UK?
Black Friday is Friday 27 November 2026 and Cyber Monday is Monday 30 November 2026. Amazon had not announced its UK Black Friday Week dates in anything we read on 11 November 2026, but some listings already carried “Early Black Friday” badges that day.
Do mobility shops put prices up before Black Friday?
At one of the two specialist shops we checked, 9 of 14 items cost more on 11 November than on 21 September, by between 3% and 120%. At the other, all 8 items were unchanged. We cannot tell from prices alone why any price changed.
Is the “was” price on Amazon the old price?
Not always. Amazon’s listings say the “was” price is the median price customers paid over a recent period. One stool we checked showed 19% off against its “was” price on 11 November, at exactly the price it had on 21 September.
Can I get VAT relief on a Black Friday deal?
Yes, if you are eligible and the product qualifies. A sale does not change the VAT rules. Relief removes one-sixth of a price that includes 20% VAT. This is not tax advice: check the GOV.UK guidance on VAT relief for disabled people, or ask the seller. Age alone does not qualify.
Does the price index show the price of each product?
No. Our UK mobility equipment price index gives a typical price range for each type of equipment. On this page we use it to show whether a price is normal or premium for that type. The product-by-product record comes from our own price checks on 21 September, 5 October and 11 November 2026.
Editions
Black Friday 2026 edition: prices recorded on 11 November 2026, with checks on 27 and 30 November. When the sale ends we will add the final counts above this line and leave the 11 November record as it is. Next year’s edition will go above this one.
What this page says, and what it does not
It says what prices we read, on which pages, on which dates, and how they compare. It does not say that any seller or maker acted dishonestly, and it does not tell you what to buy. Nobody paid to appear on this page, nobody saw it before it went live, and the commission on Amazon links does not change any label. No company pays to be listed or ranked on Review Mobility. If you think a figure is wrong, email hello@reviewmobility.co.uk with the page and date and we will check it and correct it.
This page is not financial or tax advice.
