It rolls very smoothly. It just has the feel of good quality. We bought the Combo Cushion Foam Wheelchair Cushion and with the cushion the chair was extremely comfortable. (This doesn't mean it's uncomfortable without the cushion; we just put the cushion on right away and it was very comfortable.) Even though I could not adjust the back, as I had expected, I felt the chair was very comfortable. On only one day did Mom sit in it for a long period; that was for more than 7 hours and she seemed entirely comfortable the entire time. I felt the description was unintentionally inaccurate, but still liked the chair very much. In fact, rather than ask permission to return the chair because my Mom died less than a week after it arrived, we have decided to keep it in case my elderly father or another family member should need it. We do like it. Be aware of the 250-pound weight limit.

My Mom was declining so quickly in the last month that she only used this chair about five times before she died. Basically, I feel it is a good product and well worth the price. The one thing that did bother me is not a weakness of the product so much as a weakness of the description: It was very hard to take my Mom's wheelchair measurements because of her dementia. This chair cost more than I had originally planned on spending and part of why I spent so much was that the armrests and back were described as adjustable. I thought I'd be able to recline the back slightly in the evening, when Mom was watching TV. It turned out the arms were adjustable by the user, but the back could only be adjusted by a technician and then the whole balance of the chair had to be re-adjusted, and one would then keep the back in that new position. I think it would be helpful if the description made clear that the back is not adjustable on a day-to-day basis by the user, as the armrests are. I did like the chair; I think it is a good product and I would recommend it. I also have a good impression of SpinLife. I just would like the SpinLife description of this product to be clarified.
