The chair is easy to handle and serves the purpose of...

 
4.0 / 5
Strengths:

The chair's weight allows for easy storage. Its lightweight quality is its strongest asset. Legs attach with little effort. In a public place, like a restaurant, the chair can easily be compacted and put out of the way. The chair has given us a measure of flexibility that we did not have before in terms of where we go.

Weaknesses:

My husband weighs about 240 lbs. Pushing him in the chair uphill is difficult. He does not find the chair comfortable if we get into a situation where he has to simply sit in it for several minutes as in a waiting room.

Reviewer:
User Details:

I transport my husband who cannot walk distances commonly encountered in parking lots, malls, doctor's offices, etc.
