changed our life, making it possible to get out more
ease of use, able to get close to table for eating, narrower than wheel chair
still wish it were a little lighter to put in the car...

I would recommend this wheelchair for all who are...
The bigger back wheel.
For a transport wheelchair, I do not believe there are any weaknesses.
janis a. from orchard park, ny
I bought my wheelchair for I was going to Chicago and I wanted to make sure with all the walking I had a wheelchair that would take me anywhere...well
Wonderful Product
The larger rear wheels and the removable sides are wonderful.
Footrests need some way to latch when folded back and not in use.

I would recommend it with reservations.
It's lightweight. The hand brakes are easier to use then the lower brakes. It's smaller than average size is a plus for narrow spaces.
The lower brake handles stick out 2 inches further than the chair and cause problems in very narrow spaces. Add 4 inches to the width if you're calculating for space requirements. It is also difficult to reopen the chair once closed.

The user of this product is an 88 year old woman with extreme joint deterioration from arthritis.
Just what we were looking for!
arms are removable and reversible (the main reason we purchased this chair as my parent is short and most transport chair arms are far too high, these arms are a bit lower and reverse to give a nice little dip toward the back/elbow), comfortable, lightweight, easy to fold up (seat handles), has a secure seatbelt (really important with uneven sidewalks and thresholds), sturdy
if I had to come up with one weakness, I'd say the larger back wheels -- while they make for a smoother ride, they make the chair a little unbalanced when lifting into a car

90 year old with limited walking ability
Great product. Perfect solution for our situation.
After much research this was the only chair that I could find that had large rear wheels and Removable Desk Arms. This product was exactly what I was looking for in features, weight, quality and price.
The footrests could be more substantial. The straps on the footrests are a nuisance.

Best of brands available
Hand brakes top line. able to use at table and easy to transport in vehicle. Ability to use indoors and outdoors.
Hand brake lines too short resulting in kinks at brake handles. Foot rest latch plates have shapr edges resulting in cutting into legs when foot rests are removed. Foot rest attach plates too close together making attachment of foot rest difficult for elderly.
