37 year old male has mild case of CP but that isn't the main reason for the use of a w/c he has since gotten ill the past two years with a diagnosis

Light weight, easy to fold

This chair was wider and lower than the other chair we have, and the arm rests were shorter. The brakes were hard to operate and required the caregiver to bend over to use them. We returned it and purchased a higher, narrower product with bicycle type brakes. My dad is fairly tall (6' when he was young) so a higher chair works better. The wide width made this chair harder to handle inside. Dad did not like the shorter armrests; they were too far back for him to grab in order to pull himself up effectively. The brakes were difficult to operate; if the caregiver is supposed to be able to set and release them with her feet, we could not figure out how to do that. Bicycle brakes that allow you to set both brakes at once while standing are much better.

lightweight, good looking. She likes it a lot, we get questions about where we bought the chair.

when you unlock the foot assembly it turns around. should be able to lock it will take less space in a car.

It's size, weight and easy transport.

Haven't found any yet.

sandra m. from onalaska, tx (caregiver)

I bought one for my 92 yr old mother and it worked so well I bought one for my 94 yr old dad. We never leave the house without them.

The light weight of the chair and the ease of my wife pushing me.

I haven't encountered any weaknesses.

william b. from san jose, ca

I suffer from extreme COPD and other lung issues which makes walking pretty much non existent.

Weight and size.

This is the third chair we have purchased. Sewn seams on base bars at front of seat have split on both sides on the two previous chairs. Not the weight. My wife weighs only 130 pounds. Need to offer heel loops on foot pads and installed. Have purchased loops for previous two and self installed.

Very solid and feels safe when used

The foot pedals fly out when not in use.

richard j. from naples, fl (caregiver)

My Mother is 91 and still walks, but only for short distance. This is perfect for her and my needs for her.

Appearance and construction.

The brake pedals and the levers for lifting over obstacles are not well designed. Too much effort is required to use these. As a result, I had to return this transport chair.

tom a. from pasadena, ca (caregiver)

My wife, age 93, cannot walk without assistance. The transport chair is used to move her around the house and for outside activities.
