Very convenient 

It would help if the arms lowered so it would fit under the table at the restaurant.   

bernadine k. from new hudson, mi (caregiver)

She is 98 years old and has really bad knees.   This is the only way I can take her out of her apartment.    

Lightweight, easy to use. 

The back of the chair hinge broke after a week. 

lorraine s. from charlottesville, va (caregiver)

89 year old woman with mobility issues. 

Lite, easy to load.

We had to make adjustments to to back fo the chair because it would not click into place.

george s. from seymour, mo

78 yr old has difficulty walking and has copd.

LOVE that it only weighs 19 lbs as I have been dealing with a chair that weighed almost 40 lbs. This chair goes from folded to ready in seconds!

This may be something that my inexperience with this chair has yet to be discovered but I don't like that the foot rests must be installed/removed each use. I will investigate.

Parkinson's disease

Light, sturdy, portable, works even outdoors on uneven unpaved terrain. It has let me go a lot of places.

The plastic began cracking after 15 years of heavy use. Not much of a weakness.

I need something light, sturdy and portable. My first Drive Medical lightweigh transport chair lasted about 15 years. Glad to have a new one!

Easy to handle,comfortable,great for travel.

None. Many ask where they can purchase one.

mitchell j. from sodus, ny (caregiver)

Lite weight, user is 87. Alzheimers patient. Walking a problem. Likes to travel. Chair is great for air and cruise travel.

Priced higher than a Medline chair I purchased for another application. However it was smaller (better for the patient), narrower (fits all entryways) and well made

I would have preferred hand braking system. One of the clips to fold the back support was faulty when it arrived. A replacement was shipped promptly at no cost.

elizabeth p. from rochester, wa (caregiver)

My mother, 87, fell and fractured her femur a year ago. She is also having short term memory issues, so a transport chair gave me peace of mind.

We used it only once in a snow storm, it held up pretty good. can't wait to keep using it

so far none

kim v. from sterling heights, mi (caregiver)

the fact that it is light weight, easy to break down and put back up. easy to push.
