For emergency egress from office building.

Light weight, maneuverable, foldable enough to fit most small automobile trunks.

The foot rests should lock in place under the chair when not in use. Most homes not built for handicap access have very limited space to maneuver around furniture. Footrests in use guarantees a maneuverability problem. Folded back when you push the chair thru a limited space then have to back the chair out, invariably the footrest flare out and get caught. To solve this problem I use a large rubber band under the chair to prevent them from slinging out. Design a detent to hold them under the chair when not in use.

Well made basic chair and low cost.

Tendency to tip over backwards when person sits down. Rear wheels need to be moved back just a little to make chair more stable. Also, seat is too low for a 5ft 7inch person. Need an adjustment capability for height of seat or length of legs.

Easy to fold and lift so anyone can help transport and it fits anywhere.

Love that it is smaller and lighter than regular sized wheelchair but still wish it had some type of bigger wheels so a person can wheel themselves.

56 yrs old. I fell down stairs and broke my ankle in 3 places, dislocated it and tore ligaments.

Solid, well made, not too expensive.

Foot rest adjustment & stowage.

Elderly male & female

Steel makes it more secure. The wheels are strong and the foot rests excellen t.

Haven't used it enough yet to know the weaknesses yet...one could be getting over the thresholds.

OUT-PATIENT IMAGING CENTER

Quality materials and workmanship all around -price was very good as well. Being lighter weight is also a BIG plus

Small back wheels. I didn't know what to expect (never had used one like this before), tricky to operate at times.

brook r. from ithaca, ny

61 year old / long-term foot injury / greatest recovery attitude in the world

Folds easily to fit into car trunk

When product arrived it had a damaged arm rest. I needed it so I had tyo use it as is.

harry k. from lutherville, md (caregiver)

Physical disability requires person to be transported to doctor, etc. by wheel chair.

Light weight getting in and out of car

Foot rest flops around a little bit when getting it in and out of the car. Would not accomodate for a heavy set person.

diane f. from ellicott city, md (caregiver)

Use it for my 83 year old mom who has had a stroke and while she can get around the house, we could no longer go anywhere that involved longer trips.
