Great Wheelchair for Transport and Appts/Shopping

Excellent chair at this price. I would buy it again without hesitation - definitely a great deal. The seat is well-stitched and the calf-support strap is also sturdy. This strap should have added little strips to pass through the chair frame to keep the strap up high. As is, it may slip downwards, towards the ankles. I am going to add some of those Velcro network cable "bundle" strips to accomplish this. But this strap does work - it is not a deal-breaker. The paint and finishing on all metal parts is excellent. The large wheels are a thick plastic - not the rubber ones like on more costly chairs. this is why the price is so low - there has to be some tradeoffs. That said, this chair will last a very long time - especially if used for transport, such as to and from a doctor's appointment - shopping - such as that and not a daily "all day" chair in the home. It is also marketed as such - "lightweight, folding, etc". The wheels will be very durable for carpeting, tile and smooth concrete. Extended sidewalk use and definitely a lot of use on asphalt will grind away at the wheels. So - a great chair for it's advertised use. Think of it as a "rehab" chair or for when the user simply needs a chair sometimes vs a walker with the seat feature - when the legs are in need of a break.

It's worth the investment!

Wheelchair is very sturdy and very well made. Glad to have purchased this wheelchair for the care of my wife. She feels very secure when we use it. Can't go wrong if you purchase. Shipping and delivery was extremely fast!

Good wheelchair for smaller adults

Not lightweight

I don't know how this wheelchair can be called lightweight unless you're comparing it to motorized chairs. At 50 pounds it is difficult to pick up and put in the car. Other than that it seems well made and sturdy. It rides smoothly and I think it is a good value.

Best Amazon Purchase Ever

I had a major foot injury and then surgery, and it would be impossible to get around without this little wheelchair! Easy to self-propel and maneuver, much more useful than the crutches or scooter. Easily collapses to go in the trunk after someone pushes me to the car. Possibly my favorite Amazon purchase of all time! Highly recommend!!

Great Wheelchair

Lightweight and durable! This wheelchair works really well for my mother. She uses it everyday. It is also simple to clean and maintain. I wouldn't recommend this for taller people.

good value for smooth surfaces

not a long term wheelchair or for rugged use. No anti-tip so will need someone to push from behind with any slope. Good for smooth surfaces and fairly comfortable. Good product for price.

Easy to fold up, well made.

I bought this for my mother to use occasionally when going to the doctor or to the store. It seems well-made, very sturdy and easily folds to put in the trunk. This is the second one that I��ve purchased. The first one a year ago for my in-laws and absolutely no complaints so far.

Make sure that you buy the right size, But a nice chair

Nice chair, Used it for the first time last Tuesday, Should have bought a larger one because the seat wasn't wide or long enough for me it wasn't comfortable

Delays for days

Wheelchair works well, though wheels could be a bit better (they sometimes spin out). It comes pretty much fully assembled but in a massive box, so be prepared for that if you need to get it up steps or anything. Took forever for it to finally arrive, so don't order if you need it in a timely fashion.

A Bit Heavy

The specs state the chair is about 50 pounds or so, but it just felt heavier to me after I collapsed it and picked it up. It was like picking up heavy steel, but it seems like a sturdy wheelchair. I do like the fold up arm rests and the chair is so easy to fold up.

well designed and sturdy

I've used 3 different wheel chairs during my 6 month stay in hospital and a loaner after discharge for couple months. This wheel chair exceeds all expectations. I love the easy side guards that swing back easily with a gentle movement of release lever. The wheel tires are very hard and roll easily. I weigh 250 pounds and there is no flexing of wheel chair over uneven terrain. the only thing missing is a cup holder and cell phone holder but that was an easy fix. There is a very useful pocket on the back of seat for carrying small goodies. And the best thing of all. It was a very reasonable price. Far less than the disabled equipment stores want that start at $1200 and climb up from there. Also folds up very easily for putting into trunk or back seat of your automobile.

it weighs about 50 pounds which is a little heavy but manageable. I love the color options . Has an upbeat look to it . it is very well designed ergonomically. Has enough room to slide a drink bottle beside your hip if needed.

UPDATE: I've used this wheel chair for several months now. this is a great wheel chair. it has several features I really like , arm rests that can be moved up and away so easily, light weight, strong (I'm 250 pounds) so easy to fold up and stuff into the car trunk and transport. foot rest positioning is great and so easy to install and remove. There is only one down side which I resolved. ..The wheels were too close to side of chair so I got longer bolts and shimmed each side out one inch. I have big hands and I found they were getting pinched. I do not recommend to do this as it could jeopardize the safety features of this chair possibly. , but in my case it was a must do to make it useable for me. I see no issue for people with average size hands.

Gave me my life back.

Amazing! Absolute top quality for amazingly good price delivered quickly. No assembly required. Own my own chair for what it would cost to rent one in my local market for a few days. I am 6��1�� 230# and 84 years old and can fold and unfold chair, swing footrests and armrests out of the way with ease. It is comfortable - nothing poking out - easy to roll and steer. Use tiny headlamp at night. Footplate for caregiver to rock chair back to go over curbs is brilliant and balance is perfection and safe. Highly recommended.

A Wheelchair made with the user kept in mind!!

This is a fantastic wheelchair at a very reasonable price.It arrive basically already assembled,,no tools were needed. The desk ready arm feature is a huge plus and easy to use. The arms lift back so you can slide under a desk without restrictions.

My experience using this wheelchair. Pros and cons.

I injured my ankle and, while I can walk short distances, long ones are an issue and will be for quite a while as I heal. I had tickets to a live show that I bought months ago. That involved way more walking than I could do. I had been considering buying a wheelchair for my older sister who has mobility issues so, I figured I would use it for the show and any other challenging situations that come up while I heal plus we would have it for my sister when she needed it.

It did come completely assembled except for the leg rests. That's good because my husband dreads assembling stuff. The seat is 18" which is plenty for me (135 pounds) but my heavier sister (160ish pounds) would be more comfortable in a 20" although she still can use this chair.

We went to the show last week and the chair folded fine and unfolded without a hitch. The seat wasn't the most comfortable. I am going to buy a pad for it for whoever uses it in the future. Pushing the chair was easy and I was quickly able to use it myself although I never have been wheelchair bound. It rolls smoothly especially inside. The brakes work and kept the chair from moving. I don't think they would be strong enough to keep it from rolling down a steep hill or in a similar situation but they were fine for keeping the chair in place on a flat surface or small incline.

During the middle of the show, one of the footrests flew to the side. It got wiggly and hard to manage. I think this is more about how my husband attached the footrest than the chair itself. He didn't have the tool - or any tool - to fix it so I had to deal with it. It would not have been problem even for someone completely wheelchair bound, just a small annoyance,

When my husband pushed me uphill on cement to the parking garage, it jostled me around quite a lot and the wheels skipped a bit. Not much but he did notice as did I. The chair folded down with ease and fit fine in the back of the car.

Since then, we have taken my sister to the lake using the chair. She has severe balance issues and numbness in her feet and legs. It was a godsend to have the chair. Again we did notice that, on gravely areas, the wheels tended to skip a bit. Otherwise, the only complaint was that the seat was a bit uncomfortable. That can be rectified. One thing about this chair that my sister mentioned was that the leg rests don't move up or down. They are fixed in the down position so a short person's feet may not reach or someone who wants or needs to elevate their legs, can't.

I have sat in lots of wheelchairs in the hospital and rented one a while back when I had a back issue. This one doesn't feel like the hospital ones. They feel a lot sturdier but, at the same time, bulkier. This is good for maneuvering around and fitting into smaller spots. For at home use, I think this chair is fine. I am not sure that I would recommend it for someone who is wheelchair bound and needs to be in it all day and night. I think a better quality and slightly roomier one may be best. But for those who need a chair for an injury or issue and use it on as needed basis or inside where there is no tough turf, it is fine. It would have cost me $35 to rent a chair for the night. This chair was $95 to buy and have for good. There is no contest that buying was the best option.

For the price point, I feel this chair is fine. It is well made and both my sister and I felt safe in it. I am going with 4 stars. It isn't made for tough or gravely turf and I definitely would not perch it on a steep hill and trust the brakes but, in general, it is a great value if you don't need the footrests to elevate.

**** Pics are not attaching. I will try again in a few days.

Great wheelchair !

We��ve only used it twice so far but I��m pleasantly surprised at the quality of this wheelchair .

I was concerned due to the low price , but it seems sturdy and it moves well.

It was completely put together except for the foot rests but they just slipped in place, no tools needed.

Very happy !

Very well-made and sturdy, easy to maneuver

I was very impressed with the quality of this product considering the reasonable price. It arrived fully assembled except for the foot rests, which I didn��t even need so for me it was usable straight out of the box. Shipping was fast and everything was intact when it arrived. This chair is just the right size for maneuvering around a house with wide doorways, the only doorway it will not go through is a standard size door. It is lighter and seems a bit smaller than standard wheelchairs, but I don��t know if I would call it lightweight. But I suppose it would be a lot easier to get into the trunk of a car than a standard full-size wheelchair. It��s very maneuverable, it can turn on a dime which is great if you��re using it in your house where you don��t have a great deal of space to turn around. Highly recommend. Footnote: I forgot to add in my original review that the texture of the wheel that you use to operate the wheelchair is a little rough. I ended up having to wear fingerless gloves on my left hand after a few days. I suppose this is done to maximize your grip and I noticed that the grips on my walker are the same. I also had to adapt the walker handles with a cushion cover. However, this is really the only negative comment I have and it is for the manufacturers. This feature would not prevent me from purchasing this wheelchair.
