CVant walk wel, bad balance

Lightweight and folds right.

Hard for user to turn wheels, does not "coast."

anna m. from elizabeth city, nc

It IS lightweight. Wheels are more difficult to move than my 3 previous wheelchairs. Takes me more effort to push by myself. Caregivers like it.

The hand brake is terrific. Pull like a traditional bike brake while walking OR push the brake lever down to park the chair. While the chair is for my mom, my dad benefits from the chair stability and brakes - it becomes a walking aid for him.

This chair was smaller than a standard chair but still fine for my mom. Cushions were not as robust as on the old Tracer 2 my mom had. My dad did know the parking brake until I showed him! The little yellow sticker on the brake is the main indicator.

Stroke 10 years ago left mom with a paralyzed left arm and leg

construction, materials, light weight

None encountered so far. Cushion is a bit thin but we will just use an add on air cushion if needed.
