Whatever decision lead you to this page, whether your disability is temporary or permanent, this wheelchair is an amazing product, With two injured knees I couldn’t easily move on crutches without intense pain and exhaustion. The decision to invest in this particular product is one I won’t regret.Several features drew me to this wheelchair. Increased weight capacity without extra bulk means a lighter chair that can be folded/unfolded by one person. Removable armrests, leg rests, and lowering back handles makes storage, transportation, and transfer a hassle-free process. Product is packaged well and only took fifteen minutes to assemble from start to finish, no tools required. Push button design means you can remove the casters, foot rests, wheels, and arm rests quickly and easily.The wheelchair practically glides as it rolls over most surfaces with little effort. Tight turning radius is a bonus for small spaces. Very solid, it can take some abuse without worrying about damaging components or the frame. The casters are large and can sometimes get in the way when rolling over small ledges like door thresholds, and this is my only complaint.Similar wheelchairs at a local pharmacy cost upwards $300. While the price originally drew me to the Rebel it is because of the quality that I will recommend this to anyone needing a wheelchair.

I just went through a severe ankle break and was not allowed to put any weight on it for 3 months. So my Dr gave me crutches. Due to having a bad back they were way too difficult especially while wearing a heavy boot. I work in a huge building and couldn’t get that far on them and with crutches you can’t carry stuff or go shopping. This wheel chair saved me!!!! I kept it in my trunk and was able to lift it in and out with ease (with the pedals off) it’s not heavy at all yet they pop right on and off. My 12 year old even lifts it in and out. So up till yesterday I’ve used it to go to work, store and even vacation at the shore. I’m 5′ 3″ and 185 lbs. this is great for on the go. The only issues I could see for someone else is the height. I’m short so anyone taller than 5′ 5″ forget this chair because your too tall for it lol There is no height adjustment. Also I’m not sure about someone who is chubbier than 200lbs. I wouldn’t exactly call this sturdy. I’ve never felt unsafe in it at my size and I’ve used it every day but I fold it up next to my cubical once I get to work. My children have dropped it, banged it, or pushed me extremely fast through parking lots (they think they’re funny) and it held up well. I just think that it’s mostly good for easy transport not long term for someone who is disabled for a long period of time to use in the house and life in general. The other issue I can see is if your having someone push you. If they are tall it will be difficult to push you for long periods of time because the chair is so low. My husband is 6′ 5″ he said it was light and easy to push me but that having to bend down was hard on his back. When I quickly pop the legs off to put it in my truck id say it’s about 35 pounds. It folds up extremely easily. You can pop the handles down easy. Oh one more thing…. When you get it the manual is in the pocket in the back. I thought mine didn’t come with one soI put it together with out it lol but I found it later in the back pocket 🙂 hope this hells because it would have helped me. I swear I read every review amazon had on wheel chairs lol

This is a well designed, easy to set up and take down transport chair. Quality is exceptional. I’m in my 80’s and I am able to take the chair in and out of the trunk and set it up and take it down very quickly and easily. It is very compact when taken down. The person I transport weighs 250 pounds. The chair handles the weight well and is easy to push.
