Comet 330

It's easy to lift into my Escape. Appears to be durably constructed.

It must be popular, it was on backorder for 4 weeks but shipped when the website said it would. Its a bit taller than expected, as a result its difficult for mom to peddle it around. The handles are a bit wide making it a little ackward for an aaverage height person pushing the chair, but the handle width is to accomdate the collaspe of the back. The hand brakes occasionally don't release against the wheel on the first attempt but maybe thats a tension adjustment issue.

75 year old wife with dementia, class 4, very limited mobility

Easy to get in and out of car. Attractive color.

Foot rests can fall off while folding the chair up. Hand brakes can make it hard to grip the chair.

Biref use to help a person with some limited mobility get around better. Not in full time use.

easy to lift, folds up easy for storage in the car, comfortable for mom to ride in and nice to use on ocean city boardwalk when walking on the boards looking at the oceab

maybe chair seat could have more padding

ease of use and compactness when folded.

not really a weakness, but I would like to be able to swing foot rests away and lock them to frame before collapsing the transport chair to store in car trunk.

Strength, size, weight, ease of use, appearance

not enough room between the handle grip and the brake handle, making it somewhat difficult to obtain a strong grasp of the handles when pushing the unit chair.

It's lightweight, easy to fold, place in the back of my SUV, open and go.

There are no weaknesses that I can see.

Light weight and folds nicely.

See above Re: armrests are 2" or so too high for most tables.

70 year old female who suffered a stroke in 2006. She is right side paralysed and needs help with any movement over a few feet.

Nicely made product, bought it for the brakes on the handles.

The brake lines were short on one side, making adjustments difficult.

I bought this to enable my mother in her ability to get around, day trips, etc.
