The seat is comfortable and easy to clean - as is the rest of the chair. The tires have tread and grip well for something immersed in water. It is nice for transferring that the armrests swivel up and down.

Slightly too high causing my son to feel like he can fall forward easily. Frame is rather wobbly and feels somewhat unstable. My son wishes the chair came with anti-tip bars but it is a minor issue.

Caregiver to son with muscular dystrophy - dependent on wheelchair for mobility, has difficulty standing/transferring.

Ability to get wet.

Cheap construction, high cost compared to a quality, regular, wheelchair. Legs don't swing away, difficult removal.

80 yrs old, recovering from Gullian Barre Syndrome, previously very active.

It's compact, it rolls very nice, but of course its still new, it seems like a sturdy, safe product.

only weakness I have spotted is the wire bracket for the underneath bucket/pan does not fit properly or stay in place,

rust resistance, leg rest adjustments

wheels are to far to the rear for wheeling. Seat needs to be slightly slanted bacfk for stability, back could be slightly slanted back. Seat cusion coulb be softer and less slippery when wet with soap and water. Leg rest extend too far forward. 785-623-6792

The chair is used to facilitate showering my wife. She is immobile do to MS.

Compact when folded.

Seat is slippery when wet, might glue rubber drawer liner onto seat if not afraid it would peal off

MS 20 years. afraid of slipping in shower

Addresses the width issue very well. I find the chair to be very sturdy and well built.

Seat cushion is hard and becomes very slippery when wet, I have a difficult time staying in the chair since I slide about unless I use a seatbelt.

compact in size, compared to previous behemouth, and looks to be a far better chair for not rusting.

very poor backrest.

rLight weight, easy to use in portable shower

Seat is too deep and firm. It is difficult to get me far enough back on the seat to keep from slipping foward. Hand to put cloth on rear portion of seat to prevnt sliding foward. Seat is too hard and uncomfortable. A toilet shaped seat would work better.

Good price compared to manufacturer price.

Chair is too narrow to fit over most toilets (14" wide). Also, the bucket sits in a wire cage beneath the seat. Both the seat and cage must be removed to roll over a toilet (even if it is a narrow toilet). This is not easily accomplished while someone is in the chair. I have an older model that works fine. I'm not sure why they changed the design.
