For a transport chair, it is easy to use.

The chair was used on only one trip for a cruise with two flights. During the trip the hub on a back wheel was cracked. The failure is on the inside of the hub with no evidence of any force on the outside.

Can walk only limited distances.

The locking handbrakes are just what are needed to position the chair then step forward to assist my mother-in-law to move to a seat at Dr. appointments. The light weight makes it easy to lift into the trunk. It folds nicely to put in the closet.

This chair is not comfortable for long periods of sitting even with the seat pad. But it is perfect for transport from the car to inside a restaurant or office. It will serve for moving her around the house when she's unable to use her walker.

My 88 year old mother-in-law can't travel out of the house with her walker anymore, so we use the Invacare to take her to appointments and out to eat.

The color makes it stand out. When we move from the chair to a restaurant table so it is easy to pick out of the other chairs.

Price, ease of putting together, durability, stability

Difficult to adjust the height for the legs

My mother is 92 years old and cannot take more than a couple of steps and only with the help of a walker.

Extremely light weight and sturdy.

Lack of wheel locks easily operated by patient

I am a 65 year old woman with MS. The lack of brakes that I can set when alone is a problem for me.

Easy to fold and carry. Light weight for me to be able to lift and put it in my car.

The foot rest height adjustment screw loosens a lot. Have to keep tightening very often.

Brake controls on handles, larger rear wheels, light weight. I have two others both of which cost me more and this is the best so far.

Folds and can be carried very easily. Like hand brake

Arms very hard and uncomfortable. Makes for a painful sit if I must stay in it very long. Missed a good opportunity to incorporate a convenient carry "folder" on backrest. Chief complaint is that parts fall off, which prompted me to replace my initial chair.

Brakes on the handles easily pop on and off. Has made the job of caring for a person who can hardly walk so much easier.

Sometimes the footrest will twist out of alignment but having everything light weight is a small price to pay.

This wheel chair is great because it is lightweight and the brakes are on the handles.
