Freedom Wheelchair

It's weight, the height of the seat back is to short to support a taller person.

The front wheels are too small.

Tall man, paralyzed on right side, but can transfer by himself.

It's safe yet ultra light

NONE

carmela m. from pelham manor, ny (caregiver)

My mother is 94 yrs. old and uses a walker most of the time, but when we go out the wheelchair is most helpful and the ultra light weight is a plus.

Light, easy to use.

So far, no weaknesses found.

maurice e. from spring, tx (caregiver)

My wife uses the product. She has cancer and does not have very much strength. We used it on a cruise and she was able to take part in all activities.

At just 15 LBS it is the lightest wheelchair that I found. Very easy to fold and stow.

Slightly more difficult to push than a regular wheelchair and you need to be more careful on uneven pavement. But I suspect that is true of all lightweight wheelchairs.

I purchased this item for my 90 yr old mother-in-law who has limited mobility.

Around the house and getting into my car.

Light weight. So easy to handle. At the same time it seems well made and strong.

Wheels too small for going over even small bumps. Have to bend over to set brakes. (Chairs with larger wheels and hand brakes are too heavy for me to handle.)

lyndell g. from midland, mi (caregiver)

My friend 83, had stroke paralyzing right side. Chair is easy to handle. Problem is to push her (125#) over even the small strips in doorways, etc.

Low weight

none

neal e. from arlington, tx (caregiver)

Light in weight product for ease of use by caregiver loading and unloading from car.

Light weight, folds down nicely for compact spacing in car.

Wheels seem to flatten out well under the rated maximum weight limit. Needs better wheels/tires.

dolores m. from parma, oh (caregiver)

86 and with bad knees and hip. She has a hard time ambulating anything but a very short distance. Uses for trips to doctors, away from home.

Lightweight and easy-to-fold.

None to date--hoping it holds up through airline baggage.

rita k. from collinsville, il (caregiver)

My husband is 78 and cannot walk long distances without assistance. This chair is going to enable him to take a trip to Las Vegas--the first in 10 yea

bernard c. from tenafly, nj

81 year old male with Parkinson's affecting balance.

It is very light (15 lbs). The handles fold down which takes up les space in my trunk.

The foot rests come off when I put it in the trunk, which is no big deal as they are easy to put on.

joann m. from wilmington, de (caregiver)

I am an 84 year old woman. I have bad knee and get pains in my foot when I walk a short distance.
