Description
Sunrise Medical has done it again with their lightweight chair, the Breezy Ultra 4. This chair takes "standard" options to a whole new level. Included in the base price are features such as quick-release axles, height adjustable backrest and an angle-adjustable caster housing. Until the Breezy Ultra 4 these options were only available at an additional cost.
If you don't need a wheelchair with this many options then check out the Breezy Ultra 4 "Quick Ship" model.

solid product
Reviewer: Patrick B. from Tucson, AZ (caregiver)End User Desc: ALS, 60 years old, bulbar onset
Strengths: well made, useful features
Weaknesses: oxygen holder is a poor fit, comes without instructions, neither spinlife nor manufacturers tech support could tell me how to connect it!! did learn you need to order antitips which keep the lower end attached,but finally decided to attach the bracket on the holder to the side of the backrest. This works but now the handle of the chair and the oxygen holder are tight together. Also, some adjustments were difficult because of tight connections.

Reviewer: Debrah M. from Plymouth, MN (caregiver)End User Desc: Mother, age 87, scoliosis of the back, fraile, rod in leg, etc, etc.
Strengths: Stability, have only used twice.
Weaknesses: brakes, saw other wheel chairs that have better handles to set brakes. I am not happy that I had a defective wheel and had to pay over $20 dollars to send the damaged wheel back and would not be reimbursed. Due to your suppliers, I might think twice before buying from you again but I really like your products and the people I spoke with on the phone.

Strengths: great turning radius, very light, easy to use, comes apart easily
Weaknesses: I ordered a crutch holder but no instructions came with it and it only holds 1 crutch and it is in the way of the handle if someone else is pushing the chair. Also the chair is very stiff when folded. It is hard to unfold.

Extremely happy with the purchase
Reviewer: Vera P. from Parker, CO (caregiver)End User Desc: We bought this for our 86-year old Mom. A walker limits the places she can go to.
Strengths: We were very pleased with the product. It is very easy to maneuver. The weight is quite manageable and easy to load in the car. It's a great buy for the price!
Weaknesses: The brakes are difficult to set, so we can't rely on our Mom to do it herself. We also need to take care when going down inclines, and my Mom is only 125 lbs.

Super Great Back-up Chair.
Reviewer: James M. from Lawrenceville, GAEnd User Desc: James M. 49. C7 Quad. [chest down] GA. I have been disabled for 30 years.
Strengths: Easy to adjust wheels, back,and leg rest. I have the back wheels placed in middle hole, and the front wheels in the bottom.This gives the chair a slight back tilt angle, for comfort. Be sure to purchase the anti-tip bars if you use this type of setup, just for safety purposes. I mostly use a electric chair, but use a manual chair for back-up, and when traveling in a car. I got the silver texture color, but wished i had gotten the silver polish. This chair has a lot of natural black, silver polish will give the chair a two tone color, plus silver polish will not show dust build up, compared to other darker colors.
Weaknesses: No caster lock's are offered as a option, so be careful when placing weight on the front of the chair. You can turn the front wheels forward before sliding your weight forward, this will help from tipping the chair forward, and throwing you to the floor.

Easy to get in & out of small car
Reviewer: Linda E. from Lake Isabella, CAEnd User Desc: 58-year old 4'11" woman. Nerve pain in one foot, difficulty walking long distances.
Strengths: This is a great travel wheelchair. I have a Toyota Corolla, and if I move the passenger seat forward, it will fit right behind it, with the wheels put on a blanket on the back seat. The chair is very well made, and looks quite sturdy to me. I’d like to know how it holds up to airline baggage handlers, because I’d like to travel with it. If anyone has experience flying with their chair, please let us know how it survived!
Weaknesses: Removing the wheels: The only instructions in the manual are how to push the axel buttons to get the wheels off and on. They don’t tell you what position to put the wheelchair in while trying to complete this task so it doesn‘t fall over. I first put a little rug down on the pavement so the paint won’t get scratched, fold the wheelchair, then turn the wheelchair over onto its front, until it balances without falling over. You can then easily pop the wheels off and pick up the frame to put in the car. Sunrise Medical REALLY should include this instruction in their manual! I am 4’ 11”, so I have the seat to floor height on the lowest setting that is included in basic price (17.5"). I still have some difficulty pushing myself with my good foot. I would recommend short people pay extra for a lower height. The wheels also roll a little stiffly, but I’m hoping they will loosen up with time and I won‘t have so much trouble.

Reviewer: Jennifer L. from Long Beach, CA (caregiver)End User Desc:
Strengths: Price, range of custom options, very lightweight, easy to clean finish. Love the quick disconnect wheels. Can get this chair in almost any vehicle.
Weaknesses: Brake levers so short that fingers get pinched between wheel and lever when setting the brake. Very poorly designed seat belt with one side so short one can barely grab it. Would not recommend purchasing this option. Can't put anything in back pocket because the opening is flush with seat back.

Reviewer: Paul P. from Albuquerque, NM (caregiver)End User Desc: Age 34, strong but has lost most of the sense of balance so must use a wheelchair.

Weaknesses: It is a little heavy. The footrests seem a little flimsy. I wish there was an option for quickly removing front wheels so that it would fit in the car better. Seems a little hard to get it to fold up but not too bad.

Strengths: body is made well and the wheelchair folds very easily. It weighs about 30 lbs. or less with the leg rests and the arm rests off. It is as good as any we have had. My grandson was very happy when it came and so were we. We took it on a cruise in December and it held up quite well. I would recommend your company to all my friends who need wheelchairs or other equipment. You truly meet the needs of the disabled. It is affordable to all who need wheelchairs or who need other equipment. It was delivered quickly and nothing was wrong except the crutch holder only held one and we needed two because our grandson walks with two crutches and has braces on both legs. He has cerabellar degeneration with encephalopthy. He is 19 and has been this way since he was 4 years old when his mother was dying from a rare cancer.
Weaknesses: The only thing wrong would be the tires. The should come with tires that have tread and not smooth tires.

End User Desc: Age 70, 90% loss of use lower extremadies, unable to stand
Strengths: Sturdy, reasonably light weight, attractive
Weaknesses: TWO DESIGN DEFECTS: (1) Transferring is difficult due to the "braking handles" which protrude upward (when in locked position)and makes sliding across them difficult. They should be reconfigured to allow full clearance --- as a person moves horizontally from a seat onto the wheelchair, or vice versa. (2) When a leg rest is swiveled aside (to allow exiting by sliding from the chair), the swiveled leg rest tangles with the adjacent front wheel, thereby preventing the chair from further positioning.

Reviewer: maureen D. from Little Rock, AR (caregiver)End User Desc: The user is an 80 year old with osteo-arthritis. She finds her new Breezy to be as comfortable as her previous one, but lighter and more conveniently
Strengths: It is light, easy to set up, and change (arms back, or off. Wheels off and on etc..). It is sleeker and easier to manage than the older model we had. The old Breezy we had was wider and a narrower chair is easier around the house and out and about. But this model does have upgrades that also make it much easier to handle. Once again I would like to commend SpinLife on their business efficiency. We were surprised when the UPS truck turned up with this chair about 4 days after putting in the order, just before the July 4 holiday.
Weaknesses: None so far. Though we have not tried the tools yet, they are not what one would call substantial looking. However they do fit nicely in the pouch that is on the seat back.

Strengths: Ease of use and light weight for folding and lifting into car. The flip back armrests are a definite improvement over the swing away arms, that frequently break and get lost.
Weaknesses: The low profile polyethelene tires/wheels that come with this model are inferior (especially in snow) to regular tires with tread (and hard inserts). The dual pin design of the swing away foot rests is difficult and time consuming to line up, especially at evening and cold/inclement weather use.

Reviewer: Jenifer H. from PLymouth, MNEnd User Desc: I am 39 and in good health except for chronic plantar fasciitis. I use the wheelchair only on outings such as shopping.
Strengths: I chose this chair primarily because it is lightweight, the wheels can be removed for more compact storage or transport, and it was relatively inexpensive. It meets my expectations in all of those areas!
Weaknesses: The wheels slip very easily which makes maneuvering a little cumbersome. I also seem to have a difficult time opening the chair. It doesn't seem to pop right open with a push on the seat, and I pinched my fingers trying to grip onto the edge of the seat and pry it open. Perhaps, I am doing something incorrectly. For my limited usage I'm still very happy with my purchase.

Excellent chair with a reasonable price.
Reviewer: Jeanne J. from Fort Myers, FL (caregiver)End User Desc: I purchased this chair for my sister who is 58, has MS with limited mobility in upper and lower body. The chair is very easy for her to use.
Strengths: Lightweight, no worry about tires, ease of use.
Weaknesses: A little "tight" in turning the chair. It may need to be adjusted for user.

Satisfactory for the price
Reviewer: Peter H. from Tempe, AZEnd User Desc: 51, post-polio, wheelchair user
Strengths: For the price, it's a pretty good chair. It's lightweight and easy to put in a vehicle, even for my 84-year-old mother. The construction seems reasonably solid and the brakes hold the wheels well.
Weaknesses: The brakes are stiff and difficult to engage, particularly if your hands are disabled. The velcro strips on the seat for a cushion could be wider. One of the rear wheels has become somewhat wobbly, though not apparently in danger of coming off.

A good value wheelchair.
Reviewer: Michael H. from Manitou Springs, COEnd User Desc: Recently disabled male requiring a wheelchair for ambulation.
Strengths: This chair has many nice features such as removable arm rests and leg rests. It is fairly lightweight and I really liked the color options.
Weaknesses: I believe I selected the wrong wheels when ordering. I think I should have gotten inflatable wheels or at least one with traction. The wheels I selected tend to be too slick and have been somewhat of an obstacle in maneuvering the chair!!

good everyday chair
Reviewer: sandi P. from Barrington, ILEnd User Desc: arthritis lower back/hips/knees
Strengths: needed a chair with a reclining back for lower back problems and this one is execellent and very comfortable. execellent everyday chair. Nice looking for a chair thats not a sport chair (have quickie XTR and 2 revolutions also).
Weaknesses: quick release wheels are a bit wobbly when locked in place. could make it easier to recline the back, i.e. squeeze release under push handles like the invacare recliner..otherwise no problems with construction.

| Seat
Depth1 Measure from the most posterior point of the body to the inside of the knee, minus at least two inches. Some prefer more leg overhang to make room for their hand when lifting their leg. Back Height2 Measured from the seat base to the top of the wheelchair back. Depends on how much upper back support is needed, and also affects freedom for the upper body to rotate. Rear Seat to Floor3 Measurement from the ground to the rear seat edge. Relative to the front seat-to-floor dimension, this determines the rearward slope ("dump" or "squeeze") of the wheelchair seat. Hanger Angle4 Determines how far the toes extend away from the body, measured from the horizontal. A tighter angle allows the wheelchair to turn around in less space. Depends in part on ability of the knee to bend towards the perpendicular. Seat Width5 Determined by the widest point of the body from knee to hip, plus an inch to ensure room to move. Consider bulk of clothing, particularly a heavy winter coat, if relevant. Wheel Camber6 Angle of the wheel relative to the vertical. More camber improves stability and agility, but also limits ability to pass through narrow spaces. A typical daily wheelchair uses three degrees of camber. Front Seat to Floor7 Measure the leg from the back of the knee to the sole of the foot. Then subtract the thickness of the cushion when it is compressed. Next, add a minimum of two inches for footrest clearance. Do not add the footrest clearance if the wheelchair will be foot-propelled. |
