One more thing: use a real wall charger that can supply at least 1A; many computer USB ports won’t revive a deeply drained battery which, yeah e‑ink screens can look stuck so watch the charge light instead and let it sit 20–30 minutes on power before doing the long power hold. If your model has a pinhole reset or a power+volume combo, try that after charging and swapping cables.

The big gotcha is “deferred interest” vs a true 0% APR - if it’s deferred even a tiny leftover balance triggers all interest from day one. If you do it, set autopay for the purchase price divided by 10–11 months, then request the exact payoff after the statement cuts and zero it out two cycles early. Don’t put any other purchases on that card during the promo since payments often get applied to the lowest-rate balance first and... with slow delivery, try to have them start the promo on delivery or ring it up then, so you don’t burn weeks of the promo before the fridge arrives.

Shopping for my dad taught me that that model feet need space up front more than anywhere else. I always check that his toes can spread without the upper pressing down on them and that the shoe bends where his toes bend which and yeah... lighter builds are out there even in that model sizes and so you do not have to accept a clunky feel. For wet sidewalks, rubber matters more than foam. Look for a tread that has little channels to move water away, and make sure the heel is not slick or shiny. If the stock insole feels mushy, swap to a firmer one so he does not feel unstable. Do a short break in with a few ten minute walks and watch for hot spots. Works great.
