Not bad, although clear limits on how far it can be...

 
4.0 / 5
Strengths:

Those adjustments we could make weren't too difficult. Very light weight and easy to get in car.

Weaknesses:

Adjustments got me quite close to a perfect fit, but not quite. Unclear yet how durable this will be. Need better instructions/website for directions.

Quality lightweight wheelchair

 
4.0 / 5
Strengths:

Lightweight, ease of use, comes apart & goes back together fairly easy. Adjusts easily enough. Footrests work well.

Adjusting wheel brakes difficult with allen wrenches to get them tight enough

A little awkward to fold up but otherwise excellent.

 
4.0 / 5
Strengths:

Lightweight, folds up smaller than other chairs.

Weaknesses:

The seat has to be pulled apart to fold correctly and the handles don't raise.

It's okay, but not great.

 
3.5 / 5
Strengths:

It is light and easy to use.

Weaknesses:

The tires are not "air" tires. They only look that way. For the price of $700, I feel it should have been much better. I am keeping it, because it is better than the last wheelchair.

Reviewer:
User Details:

My dad is 89. He has dementia, Parkinson's disease, can't walk and gets confused. The wheelchair is lighter and easier to use than his previous Novac

Cougar: Review

 
4.0 / 5
Strengths:

The ease of lifting the chair, this was why I ordered a light weight chair. It folds easily.

Weaknesses:

I don't like the fact that the arm rests aren't fixed in place.

Reviewer:
User Details:

Super light and easy to lift into my car.

It has some shortcomings.

 
3.5 / 5
Strengths:

It truly is lightweight, and my husband who has been very ill is able to lift it. I am the user.

Weaknesses:

We needed more detailed instructions on how to adjust it. We had to take it into a shop for adjustment. Nowhere in the literature we received did it say that the wheel popped off with a press of the inner knob. The legrests are more difficult to click into firm position than I am used to. Otherwise, the characteristics are very good.
