FOLDABLE AND LIGHTWEIGHT.

NONE

MY WIFE HAS COPD AND CAN'T WALK AROUND TOO MUCH.THE WHEELCHAIR IS A BIG HELP WHEN WE GO SHOPPING.I LIKE THE WAY IT FOLDS UP TO STORE.

very high quality construction

The extra accessory: carry all bag attachment was velcro stripped, and not too big or too sturdy for putting a container of milk in. Has to purchase separately a chair cushion, do not know if this came with one? Also, after a while the chair was hard to push up an incline (not a hill) but up a broken piece of sidewalk. The wheels are very sturdy and great, but I think that if they were just a little bit bigger, this chair wouldn't have any weaknesses at all...in-in-all: it is a great product!

My mother has a caregiver who constantly uses this product for her. I only used it a few times already.

Convenience, weight & storage makes it so easy to handle. Color is so nice.

I am very short and the arm rests are too high but I use a thick cushion this makes it more comfortable. My husband finds the handles high for pushing also. This is not a weakness it probably is ideal for a taller person.

I am 71 years old and use the Transport Chair just for malls or an upcoming cruise. I have problems with osteoarthritis in both knees and can walk on

This chair is well built, compact when folded and easy to lift and store. Features such as foot rests, height of arms, brakes,and ease of handling are all pluses.

I feel that the handbrakes are a little too stiff to squeeze (maby they just need a little adjustment). Otherwise there is nothing I can find wrong whith this chair.

I use this chair to transport my 82 year old mother who has limited mobility and balance.

Light weight, stong construction of the Nova Comet 330. Best available price.

Without a cushion the arm rests seemed high but the problem was minimum.

john a. from minnetonka, mn

I made trip to Europe in which the Comet 330 was taken on the airplane at no charge. I visited museums etc., very comfortably.

High quality, moderate weight.

None.

harry h. from madison, wi (caregiver)

Age 81, Physical disability Alzheimer's Disease, unable to walk more than a few feet without help.

It is compact and light in weight yet works well on somewhat rough surfaces. Wheelchair can also be easily tilted to overcome door threshholds etc.

None,thus far.

lisa c. from calistoga, ca (caregiver)

86 year old aunt, walks a few steps but needs a wheelchair for any distance beyond 20 ft.

The weight is just right and we hang a large canvas bag over the handles to go shopping with and drop our items into that. And the handles are just the right height for me to push her without making me bend over. And it rides smoothly over bumps and doesn't jar her around.

94 year old mother in nursing home can't walk because of balance issues. We got to where we couldn't find a wheelchair in stores that she went to.

Hand brakes & larger wheels,light weight & ease of storage.

I tied footrests to frame to prevent loss in cargo hold of plane. They come off too easy & would've been lost otherwise. Cover over rear wheelnut was cracked when received;they seem unnecessary anyway.Curved handles such as on bicycles would be nice. Reflectors seem unnecessary.

theresa m. from greenfield center, ny (caregiver)
