Saving my wife's back

 
4.3 / 5
Strengths:

Light weight! Very easy to fold and put in a car trunk. My wife (98#) had a hard time loading my light weight wheelchair into the trunk when taking me to a doctor or visiting.

Weaknesses:

A bit narrow in the seat. It has its draw backs that take a while to adjust to. Once you're parked you're parked! Also harder to push on anything but a smooth, level surface.

My mother is 79 and can walk short distances unassisted. If she's walking or standing for longer periods of time, her back would hurt her too much.

Perfect and easy to use.

 
5.0 / 5
Strengths:

Its lightweight is one big factor because I have not have a hard time pushing or pulling it even lifting it.

Weaknesses:

The patient could not manuever it by himself/herself like the regular wheelchair. It is more helpful for the caregiver who does the pushing and lifting of said product.

Reviewer:
User Details:

Its easy for me to transport my patient in and out of the vehicle and at the same time very easy for me to lift the lightweight transport wheelchair.

GREAT product for the money.

 
5.0 / 5
Strengths:

Fold down chair and light weight make it ideal for getting in and out of the car. The color is very nice and the overall quality of the chair is outstanding. Although we haven't had to use it, the seat belt is a great plus. My Mother loves to be outside and this wheelchair makes it very easy to take her on walks through the neighborhood.

Weaknesses:

We haven't discovered any.

Very easy to travel with.

 
5.0 / 5
Strengths:

Light weight, yet, very durable, easy to put into car. Love where the hand brakes are placed. Ordered the cushioned seat pad and according to my mother it is very comfortable. A nice thick pad. Although, my fault, I wished I ordered the type of chair with the pouch for storing items. Plus, it came fully assembled, which was a great!

Weaknesses:

None so far. Although, we have only used it once.
