The patient(75) has a broken hip. The chair is a blessing in transporting her. With the removable wheels it is much easier loading the chair.

Transport wheels and large wheels

I am 64 yrs old and have arthritis. I use this mainly at airports as I could not rely on the airlines getting one there quickly.

Comfortable weight for a woman to manage. Versatility of interchanging wheels a real plus. Addition of back balancers and foot straps an asset. The high back gives extra support when sitting for long periods. Seems strong - we will see after more transports.

I added a seatbelt, easily attaches. It is a necessary safety addition.

The user had a stroke and is in his 80s. He cannot walk but can transfer from bed to wheelchair. This also means he can get to physical therapy.

Ease of use, smooth ride, lightweight.

This probably wouldn't be a weakness for everyone, but since the user has very long legs, the seat depth is a bit too shallow, making her feel insecure in the chair. Also, we liked the shorter arms so the chair could be pushed under a table, but the shorter arms also make her feel more insecure because she can't really hold onto them.

The ability to change from a normal wheel chair to a transport chair. We feel that the idea of a convertable chair is wonderful.

It feels very cheaply made. The front wheels are very difficult to get turned in the proper direction. Does not seem like it will last over time. It is very hard to fold, it would be nice to have loops on the side of the seat to grasp when folding the chair.

The end user has limited mobility and we thought this would be good for around the house or to go to the store.

My husband has Parkinson's and it is very easy for him to push himself. When I take the big wheels off it is light enough for me to get in the car, I
