Lightweight Tilt-in-Space VIP-515

The tilt of the seat and back together is helpful for my Mom's care.

I wish the product came assembled - but luckily my husband was able to put it together without having to purchase any hardware. It was inconvenient, however.

My 93 year-old Mom, with dementia and stroke with left side weakness. Lives in memory care facility with additional private aides 24/7.

Relieves pressure. Makes transporting easier.

For this user, his legs are too long for the leg rests. Leaning him back is necessary to move him. This, however, was a problem in his previous chair. I am happy for the tilt feature because he doesn't know what to do with leg rests.

User has dementia and can't comply with commands. Makes transporting easier. Leg rests are an annoyance to him.

It is a light and portable chair with enough support for my son's condition.

It doesn't recline as much as I would like.

Alzheimer's patient in last stages, not able to walk. Tilting chair keeps patient from slipping out.

Easily allows for pressure relief, steer easily when pushing, light in weight folds for travel and storage

Difficult to push when slightly tilted causing the attendant to push using the back rest as the steering mechanism, not the handles, need to buy extra padding for seat and back, arm rest padding broke the second time we used it, it was partially our fault but the break occurred very eaily. Appears to be made of plastic, for such an expensive chair it should at least look like somethng else than plastic.
