Very well-made and sturdy, easy to maneuver
I was very impressed with the quality of this product considering the reasonable price. It arrived fully assembled except for the foot rests, which I didn’t even need so for me it was usable straight out of the box. Shipping was fast and everything was intact when it arrived. This chair is just the right size for maneuvering around a house with wide doorways, the only doorway it will not go through is a standard size door. It is lighter and seems a bit smaller than standard wheelchairs, but I don’t know if I would call it lightweight. But I suppose it would be a lot easier to get into the trunk of a car than a standard full-size wheelchair. It’s very maneuverable, it can turn on a dime which is great if you’re using it in your house where you don’t have a great deal of space to turn around. Highly recommend. Footnote: I forgot to add in my original review that the texture of the wheel that you use to operate the wheelchair is a little rough. I ended up having to wear fingerless gloves on my left hand after a few days. I suppose this is done to maximize your grip and I noticed that the grips on my walker are the same. I also had to adapt the walker handles with a cushion cover. However, this is really the only negative comment I have and it is for the manufacturers. This feature would not prevent me from purchasing this wheelchair.

Gave me my life back.
Amazing! Absolute top quality for amazingly good price delivered quickly. No assembly required. Own my own chair for what it would cost to rent one in my local market for a few days. I am 6’1” 230# and 84 years old and can fold and unfold chair, swing footrests and armrests out of the way with ease. It is comfortable - nothing poking out - easy to roll and steer. Use tiny headlamp at night. Footplate for caregiver to rock chair back to go over curbs is brilliant and balance is perfection and safe. Highly recommended.

Great chair
Easy to use. Light-weight. Works perfectly as a transfer chair. Especially since my dad REFUSED to use it.... He is also 6'3" all legs. He is a tall man, about 213lbs. He does sit comfortably. Chairnis also slim enough to get into our thin doors.

A real bargain and very solid
I would give it five stars except that it’s not really lightweight at 40.8 pounds. However it’s lighter than most other low priced chairs. Exceptionally well made. Easy to manipulate while pushing or operating alone. Clearly an exceptional bargain at $129.

Good product, easy assembly, folds for trunk of car and fits
This is a good quality product. I ordered this for my father who cannot walk. Comfortable enough to sit in all day and get around, also getting outside, staying on a concrete path is best. I felt the price was good for the quality

Quality and affordability
I am marvelling at the quality of this chair. It cost less than our monthly internet/phone bill. We used it today, and it performed flawlessly. It's going to be such a help in the months ahead, getting an ill family member to appointments. It's reasonably light, so I'm able to get it into the car without too much trouble. I think if you're needing something like this, this one won't disappoint.

Good Product, Great Price
This is a great wheelchair! The price is Fantastic! We looked at mobility stores that sell medical equipment, but the prices were much higher. It is well-made & sturdy. You just take it out of the box and attach the foot pedals. It is a bit heavy, so if you’re older a lighter chair should be your choice. Also, it fits in the back of our Outback.

I've used 3 different wheel chairs during my 6 month stay in hospital and a loaner after discharge for couple months. This wheel chair exceeds all expectations. I love the easy side guards that swing back easily with a gentle movement of release lever. The wheel tires are very hard and roll easily. I weigh 300 pounds and there is no flexing of wheel chair over uneven terrain. the only thing missing is a cup holder and cell phone holder but that was an easy fix. There is a very useful pocket on the back of seat for carrying small goodies. And the best thing of all. It was a very reasonable price. Far less than the disabled equipment stores want that start at $1200 and climb up from there. Also folds up very easily for putting into trunk or back seat of your automobile. it weighs about 40 pounds which is a little heavy but manageable. I love the color options and I picked blue . Has an upbeat look to it . it is very well designed ergonomically. I needed a little wider because the common 18 inch feels a little too tight so I ordered the 20 inch and it's perfect. Has enough room to slide a drink bottle beside your hip if needed. UPDATE: I've used this wheel chair for several months now. this is a great wheel chair. it has several features I really like , arm rests that can be moved up and away so easily, light weight, strong (I'm 335 pounds) so easy to fold up and stuff into the car trunk and transport. foot rest positioning is great and so easy to install and remove. There is only one down side which I resolved. ..The wheels were too close to side of chair so I got longer bolts and shimmed each side out one inch. I have big hands and I found they were getting pinched. I do not recommend to do this as it could jeopardize the safety features of this chair possibly. , but in my case it was a must do to make it useable for me. I see no issue for people with average size hands. Thank yo AMAZON for listing this chair on your site

Muy recomendable, que los descansa brazos & pies se puedan remover, es practica para el usuario & para meterla en un auto pequeño, tengo un ibiza & cabe bien gracias a eso, materiales durables, comoda & resistente, no sera la mejor o la mas cara, pero por el precio, lo vale.
