Tracer IV Custom

The overall make of the chair, just a beauty.

None, so far.

virginia b. from grove, ok

Age and disability was a factor in purchasing the chair, so far so good. I liked the craftsmanship, well made and love my color--"ruby red"!

Built stronger then it needed to be but provides me will a great sense of being well built and will last a long time.

It is heavy to lift. I bought it for in the house and I keep a lighter one in the van for shopping.

sue c. from lawton, ok

I am 68 years young and have knees that will not support my heavy body. I can walk but am afraid of falling.

It's a good wheel chair, strong and moves well and quietly. I bought it because it's the same model I already have. But this second one is not exactly the same. Something's are different.

I do not like the changes made to the first one of this wheelchair. It sits lower, the arms aren't as strong and I worry about them coming off when I lean my weight on them. The wheels have some sharp rubber edges that hurt my wrists when I slide past them,.....and one of the screws that holds the seat material to the frame is up, not down as it should be and I can't get it to come out so I can reinsert it. The first Tracer was put together better and I think better quality.

I am a 54 year old woman, over weight and need hip surgery. Am working on my weight currently in order to get surgery.

Sturdy, some adjust-ability to meet needs.

Due to size of casters and wheels to handle the typical client's typical weight, does not push as easily- but that is the nature of a bariatric chair.

This is used as a 'fleet chair' in a rehab facility, so needs to be able to help a range of clients.

It's a strong chair

Once again as I have filed out this same survey, I know of no weakness it's seems to be a good chair

I am 66 years old and suffer from arthritis. This purchase was made with the future needs of both myself and my husband.

The ease, it glides.

Would like it to be a little lighter to lift.

dorothy e. from hanover, pa

I'm a 72 yr. old female who can't walk far, so I use it when friends take me to the mall shopping etc.

The only thing that I can say about my wheelchairs, bought from Spinlife is that if they are DURABLE for me and my weight, they will stand up for everyone. I LOVE MY INVACARE WHEELCHAIRS FROM SPINLIFE.

I have no weaknesses in this product and would recommend Spinlife Products to anyone needing it.

strength of the frame, that it folds,and that it has treaded pneumatic tires(flat free)

male sixty two years old, has no use of one leg and the other was amputated

This chair is nice and lightweight for a bariatric chair. As a caregiver, that's a plus, as I'm a petite woman and no spring chicken myself. It rolls easily even with a heavier load, and seems pretty sturdy--no complaints there

I find it strange that when folded, the bars that the seat hangs from come way up above the handles. I purchased a really nice wheelchair caddy bag and it didn't fit over this chair because of that. I don't know if this is because the chair is so much wider than an average chair, or if it's the way this brand is built. But since that was the only disappointment with the chair, that's certainly no big deal.

This chair is for a 60 something ambulatory heart patient who needs the chair on occasion and for sitting at venues for long periods
