Silver Sport Reclining

Infinite recline positions provide safety for post-op hip precautions. Solid and sturdy in frame. Basic sizing fits more than adequately and is comfortable for travel and sitting.

Legrest length when they are raised to support a straight leg. The footrest is 3" too short at its longest adjustment. Padded armrests are flimsy, putting full weight on one arm rest easily cracked the plastic frame of the rest pad. Will order another and replace - in future will grab the wheel and rim to steady myself when moving. No easy way to adjust recline function from chair - secondary adjustment levers somewhere accessible from in the chair would be nice, but you must have abdominal strength to pull yourself up in order to use such a function. It would be nice for those of us who have that strength.

Middle-aged male, tall, undergoing complex hip reconstructive surgery after extensive disease.

Its color, ease of handling, weight.

I transport my husband through a cargo van equipped specifically for wheelchair. Your wheelchair has no accessible rings or gadgets to hook a locking device to in order to restrain the wheelchair from movement while in the van.

I purchased the Silver Sport recliner wheelchair for my husband. He is unable to walk on his own.

Reclines with ease, and the tall back helps support head.

User cannot recline it themselves.

Sister in the nursing home. 75 years old, victim of seizures and strokes since early teens.

It helps to hold my head in place. It has a very comfortable ride. It's durability is awesome. I would definitely tell others who can't walk its a lifesaver.

The back seems to cave in toward the middle of chair at times.
