9000 XT

light weight

brakes in a poor position and hard for older people to use.

nancy l. from austin, tx (caregiver)

My mother is 28 and found it difficult to use the brakes.

hemi height is good, quality of built, the safety belt is very helpful, the removable arm is most helpful to transfer her from wheelchair to bed or chair.

the extensions i was sent for the wheel breaks are incorrect, the metal plate that is the brake is too wide and can scratch the sides of an entrance.

My 1989 chair was an Invacare and lasted for 18 years, I hope this chair is a good. I love my quick release wheels! I love that I got to choose a color, purple my favorite and I love the fact that my chair is not as heavy!!

If I find any I will let you know,

Feet rest to much of an angle. She did not require foot straps on last chair but needs on this to to prevent feet from slipping off.

wife has limited ability to walk.

It is a nice chair and well made.

The brakes are too short and too close to the wheels. I have purchased the break extenters, but see no improvement. Other then the brakes, chair is nice.

weight appearance choice of colors good backrest easy to control

seat arrived very slack causing hammocking which increases my discomfort, chair feels very narrow making me feel constricted, foot rests appear cheaply made cheap plastic would be surprised if they last long

Great Wheel locks (we added extensions), Adjustable height/space-saver arm rests, Hemi height (15 1/2"), Hemi elevating legrests, great COLOR selection. My daughter got a RED frame.

I would not recommend getting the vinyl upholstery on the seat. It started to tear after being used only one month. My daugher only weighs 95lbs.
