Some quality control issues, overall quite functional
Rolls easily. Light enough to put in car trunk. Easy to push or for patient to move.
Clothing shield cracks in a couple of years. Vinyl arm pads cracks in a couple of years. Arm support sockets not a smooth snap-in. Brake adjustment could be much easier.

The features of this wheelchair are almost perfect.
This wheelchair fits me well and makes me feel stable when moving around.
For me, the legs aren't what I expected. My feet don't reach the footplates and the legs aren't made for me to raise and lower them.

I'm 58 years old with the birth defect spina bifida. Due to that, I'm a paraplegic and require a wheelchair.
It is wider.
None
It is no different except it is wider.

Selected based on previous experience but what we received...
Chair itself is well made. Liked being able to choose features.
Measuring guide does not mention height of caregiver nor was it mentioned during ordering. Canes are too short causing stooping by person pushing. (daughter 5'9" husband 6'5"). Tried to exchange just the back and the canes told I had to return entire chair,(needed for trip concerned about time) tried contacting parts no answer. We bought to use when going distances (use rollator for short distances)but it is almost useless because of discomfort for person pushing) Elevated legs footrest not straight-have seen problem in older chairs at nursing center where I volunteer but not a new one. Break extensions don't stay on-had to duct tape-plan to drill and bolt or pin later. Recommend: not given option of Maybe (with cautions) so put NO PLEASE add height of caregiver to measuring guides.

Locks tightly. Works well mechanically.
The seams along one arm is already coming apart. This is not acceptable after such a short usage time.

The 14" width was ordered with the belief that it would be easier for a 70 pound 4'5" eleven year old to maneuver the chair (arms not extended so wide). That turns out to not be the case as it is in fact harder to turn than a rented chair with 16" seat(also a Invacare). As I think about it there is less distance from wheel to wheel and less mechanical advantage when turning and I assume that is the reason why.

reasonable price for my preferred features
lightweight, comfortable and easy to maneuver
Coming from the Philippines, I had imagined pneumatic tires to have an air valve to fill-in air when needed, not totally replace the whole thing. It takes time to order and your company do not accept international credit cards. I had to use my brother-in-law's when I bought my wheelchair last month when I was there.

I am 53 yrs old and had polio since I 1 year and 1/2. I was using crutches before but as I grow older, I couldn't handle walking long distance.
Affordable wheelchair for occasional use.
Low price, but with the ability to choose some features.
Quality suffers slightly due to low cost.
