Light enough to be folded and loaded in a reasonable amount...

 
3.8 / 5
Strengths:

Rear wheels are big enough to cross doorway "after leaning back" to get front wheels across doorway threshold. Seat is a comfortable width to get in and out. Brakes work well

Weaknesses:

foot pedals could use a couple of storage places around back while not in use up front. We had to find a storage bag and figure out a place to store the pedals and other accessories like door keys, gloves, phone.

Lightweight W/12" Rear Wheels: Review

 
4.5 / 5

Foot pedals are not user friendly

 
2.8 / 5
Strengths:

More stable, easier to navigate rough terrain.

Weaknesses:

Foot pedals on smaller wheeled chair opened sideways instead of up and down. I, as caregiver, must unlatch the pedals for him to stand and exit the chair. It is more difficult to push him up to a table in a restaurant. I wish we had known about the foot pedals before buying it. We have returned to using the old chair.
