A great lightweight transport chair.

 
4.3 / 5
Strengths:

The lightweight makes it easy to load in the car. The operator hand brake that the operator can lock in place is very nice (it takes a bit of downward pressure on the brake handle until it clicks to lock each brake).

Weaknesses:

The footrests would have been nicer if they had the push button length adjustment system instead of the bolt and wrench system (a wrench did come with the chair). My chair came with the footrests pointed inward, but with the wrench they can be loosened and pointed in the correct position with the rubber bumper end pads pointed outward like in the picture. If you leave them pointed inward then the footrests will get caught up in the front tires. Also, if the footrest bolts are not tight the footrests will twist around or come off. Our other wheelchair with the push button footrest system has none of these issues, but once the footrests on this chair are in the correct position with the bolts tightly in place this is a good chair.
