Comet 352 w/ Removable Desk Arms

ease of use, able to get close to table for eating, narrower than wheel chair

still wish it were a little lighter to put in the car...

The bigger back wheel.

For a transport wheelchair, I do not believe there are any weaknesses.

I bought my wheelchair for I was going to Chicago and I wanted to make sure with all the walking I had a wheelchair that would take me anywhere...well

The larger rear wheels and the removable sides are wonderful.

Footrests need some way to latch when folded back and not in use.

arms are removable and reversible (the main reason we purchased this chair as my parent is short and most transport chair arms are far too high, these arms are a bit lower and reverse to give a nice little dip toward the back/elbow), comfortable, lightweight, easy to fold up (seat handles), has a secure seatbelt (really important with uneven sidewalks and thresholds), sturdy

if I had to come up with one weakness, I'd say the larger back wheels -- while they make for a smoother ride, they make the chair a little unbalanced when lifting into a car

90 year old with limited walking ability

After much research this was the only chair that I could find that had large rear wheels and Removable Desk Arms. This product was exactly what I was looking for in features, weight, quality and price.

The footrests could be more substantial. The straps on the footrests are a nuisance.

I am 53 years old and have muscular dystrophy with very limited mobility.

Hand brakes top line. able to use at table and easy to transport in vehicle. Ability to use indoors and outdoors.

Hand brake lines too short resulting in kinks at brake handles. Foot rest latch plates have shapr edges resulting in cutting into legs when foot rests are removed. Foot rest attach plates too close together making attachment of foot rest difficult for elderly.
