Tracer SX5

It is a fairly lightweight but sturdy chair that folds up to be transported.

Brakes would not work upon arrival. Had to have someone who works on wheelchairs adjust them before using the chair.

Wheelchair will be used by male who had a stroke and has limited use of left leg and no use of left arm.

This is her 2nd one and fabric on armrests held up well.

First thing to go on this chair were the brakes. We would have to tighten bolts often.

My mom is 84 and has MS. She weighs 110 lbs .

My first one purchased 3 years finally wore out after much use and then bought the same model because it held up well.

The arm rests wear out and the covering cracks off fairly rapidly. Replacing them should be easier as it is just screws but find it harder than should be.

I use both bilateral canes and wheelchair to get around at home. I was diagnosed 25 years ago with MS.

Maneuverability Comfort

No weaknesses of the actual chair itself

It is easy to move in it. The brakes are very strong.

The arms are a little on the short side compared to what I had before. The seat is a little too wide.

I am 87 years old and have been in a wheel chair since 2014. My problems began in 1960 when I got polio. I used forearm crutches before.

Generally the product is good, durable. We had to try multiple times to receive a chair without a bent tire, now good.

Nylon seats, light.

Not as strong as the Breezy EC 2000 and the lower armrest is a little lower making it harder to transfer my wife from a chair to the wheelchair. I would not get another one like it at this point, I might change my mind after using it a while?

i look after my wife, wheelchair bound for 15 years. I wanted a Breezy EC 2000, but couldn't find one.

Lightweight and maneuverability

None

I bought the Tracer SX5 lightweight wheelchair for my mom who resides in a nursing home. I believe my mom likes it and doesn’t have any complaints.

It is easy to fold and my husband finds it easy to maneuver.
