Packaged carefully, foot rests are easy to place and remove. Light weighted yet sturdy and stable, can be folded quickly and fits in a small car trunk. Very comfortable. Keep in mind that this chair will fit a small/medium size person.

A great purchase! I bought this chair one month ago for an elderly relative in her 90s with dementia and hip issues. She had been borrowing a friend’s wheelchair for a while but, after an accidental fall, the friend suddenly needed her chair back. I admit being nervous about the purchase because I needed to make a quick decision. Normally, I would prefer to buy something like this in a brick and mortar store and take my time trying out models with my relative. However, my relative needed a wheelchair/transport chair asap. (There was no way she was getting out the house without a transport chair!) Plus, at $95, the price wasn’t bad. The detailed reviews on here were also very useful in determining which model to get. Thank you, fellow reviewers! This model is lighter than other wheelchairs and easy to load in a car. In addition, it has secure breaks, enabling us to safely transfer our relative from a chair into this transport chair and from the transport chair into the car. Previously, I was eying another model, the one with slightly larger back wheels, but negative reviews about the breaks scared me away. As mentioned by the other reviewers on here, this is a great chair to use in shopping malls, apartments, houses, and around the neighborhood outside. There is even a seatbelt to secure the person in the chair. Even though I bought the bigger 19’’ model, it easily fits through doorways in a small and older house. This being said, my relative is in her 90s and doesn’t use the chair all the time. She uses it mainly on outings on paved surfaces, which are infrequent due to her age and other medical issues. In the house, she normally uses a walker, but if she is having hip pain, she will use this transport chair. From this, I can see that chair provides a smooth ride and performs well on both carpeted and non-carpeted surfaces. I cannot personally rate the performance of the chair if used daily for several hours at a time and/or on rough terrain, but see that other reviewers have been happy with the chair’s performance in demanding situations such as vacations. Due to my relative’s dementia and mobility issues, she is unable to wheel herself around. Otherwise, I would have bought a full self-propelled wheelchair (the kind with large wheels that can be moved by the person sitting in it). This was another factor I took into consideration with my purchase. While other reviewers have noted that it’s possible to self-propel, I think this chair is best suited for those who prefer to be wheeled by another person. In terms of appearance, the chair has an attractive appearance with a seatbelt and detachable leg rests. It was packed well and came clean and without defects. A care manual was included.

My grandma (82) came to visit me, she is still very mobile but her legs get tired very fast. She still likes to walk so this chair was great and easy to push, she could use it to steady herself while walking around. We went to visit Monticello which has a lot of ups and downs elevation wise but this chair handled it so well. The chair is sturdy and so easy to just fold up to take on and off shuttles or pack up in a small car. I was able to get it cheaper as an open-box item and it was definitely worth every single dollar I paid for it! The leg rests are EASILY removable and swing back and forth seamlessly. They did such a great job manufacturing this chair! We had a couple people ask us where we got it.
