great, easy to transport and push

 
4.8 / 5
Strengths:

light weight, easy to fold, easy to push

Weaknesses:

no bag on the back for items. foot rest could be marked L & R to put on easier. would sometimes put rest on then to discover it went on the other side.

Has thus far done the job it was purchased for.

 
3.8 / 5
Strengths:

Very light,and easy to handle.Folds very small and will easily fit in a trunk,or back seat.Not much larger than a stroll walker when folded.Priced reasonably.

Weaknesses:

It needs wheel locks that are accessible by the patient.They could be removed if the patient could not be trusted with them.The reason I bought this model with the hand brakes was because I thought my mother would be able to use it as a walker as well,but it is not balanced properly for that.In fairness,it was not designed for that.I also thought that it would be easier for the pusher,and it is,but my mother needs to be able to unlock the wheels from the seat.It should have both. Also,it flexes a lot,especially when using the footpads to raise the front over curbs,and so forth,almost to the point of making it impossible to lift the front.There is a technique to it.There is a bit of a learning curve,after a conventional wheelchair.The flexing when going over rough pavement can be disconcerting to the patient,until they get used to it.

4.0 / 5
Strengths:

Quality; ease of use; weight

There is nothing to keep it from folding when opened for use. My body sometimes gets squeezed because of this.

5.0 / 5
Strengths:

It gives the feel of not being in a wheel chair. because of the small wheels. It moves a lot easier then the big wheels.

Weaknesses:

We did not know it locked or how to lock the breaks until a nurse showed us. I know, we could have read the directions

I think it is fine the way it is

 
4.8 / 5
Strengths:

The way it folds and the construction of the product and the large real wheels.

Weaknesses:

I don't know yet - but it was a little difficult for me to put it together but a neighbor who was familiar with chairs helped me and had no problem. Now I hope it holds up when handled by the airlines.

Reviewer:

I think it is an excellent value although my husband hasn't used it yet. It folds nicely and next week we are going to test it on a trip.
