Money well spent
Father needed a wheelchair after recent leg amputation. His home isn’t exactly wheelchair friendly. Interior doors are very narrow so it was extremely difficult for him to move from room to room with the wheelchair supplied by the hospital.This chair is identical brand but 2 inches smaller width. That 2 inches makes a HUGE difference.We didn’t have to remodel his home or change doors and he’s able to effortlessly move from room to room.Additionally, this chair has arms that lift to swing out of the way rather than having to remove the arms to transfer in and out of the chair. Saves time and effort.Superior quality. I expect this chair to last much longer than the 5 year estimate for “durable medical equipment.”Money well spent!!!

Highly recommend!
I don’t know what I was expecting when I purchased this chair for my dad, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality because of how affordable it was. Everything was already assembled, I only had to attach the legs. It’s easy to maneuver, very sturdy, and surprisingly lightweight. Even fits through all the doors in our home. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

Great wheelchair. Great price. Great features.
I broke a bone in my foot and could not put any weight on that foot for six weeks. This wheelchair has been so valuable in allowing me to get outdoors and enjoy Mother Nature. I often self-propel myself for about 1 mile and then my spouse pushes me home. I like that it has arm rests that can be down or moved up, and elevating leg rests. It has held up well over the last month after going on several outings. It is a good product at an affordable price.

Overall very stable, reliable and sturdy wheelchair.
Very stable and sturdy. It takes few turns to get used to putting foot/leg rests. Overall, very reliable wheelchair. Only drawback is the weight to put in the back of car. Legs can’t stay on. Wish there were locks to secure instead of removing them completely as an option.

Easy to use
I broke my foot and needs to stay off it, The wheelchair fits well, the leg and foot stand is nice, it can be removed or swing out of the way when you get up or transfer. It was easy to connect the leg part and did not need any other assembling, it is comftorble.

Very good quality for the price.
Very good quality for the price and be careful when comparing wheelchairs. This one has padded and adjustable leg rests. You might also want to order a back support cushion and a seat cushion if the person using it will be sitting in it for hours at a time, but that us true of all wheelchairs, in my opinion.

Answer For Us!
Needed a wheelchair for a couple to 3 weeks for my wife’s broken leg and told it was cheaper to buy one, so we did. I love the fact that we now have a wheelchair when we need it, as we are getting older, and this WC was the perfect choice for us. We are both XL people and this WC was the answer for us.

Sturdy! Good for when you need to elevate feet. Or comfort. Unfortunately does not tilt back, but very comfortable and easy to use, got a cup holder for the new wheels

The left brake is very stiff, but I love it anyway because I had to upgrade from the one I had before this one. It was from Amazon as well, and costs more than this one did. I will give the old one a negative customer review to warn other shoppers. That’s just the kind of woman I am.

Amazing! Came installed, easy to remove and use immediately. The chair is black on black and super chic. It’s easy to manoeuvre and the extendable legs adjust well. The quality is superior.

Loaded with the most important features. portable; easy to manoeuvre; affordable price. Great product! It allows me to keep my injured ankle elevated, as advised, easy access to washrooms, light weight for a chair with these features. It tracks well in the malls at decent speed. I prefer this chair over an electric option; it keeps me more energetic as I can propel it by myself. It flexes lightly over uneven ground, so all 4 wheels are in contact with the surface. Great design, excellent product at an affordable price. 👌👍
