Kindle Customer –
I bought this chair for my 81yo Mom; she spends about 90% of her day in a wheelchair sadly, and can be very VERY picky. She, and I, adore this chair. She says it is very comfortable, easy to maneuver, loves the flip up arms and the adjustable everything (seat height, arm rests, leg rests, brake levers, to name a few), and thinks it’s quite attractive. The S curved seat is odd at first, but so very very comfortable to her. She no longer complains of back pain from sitting in the chair for long periods.I adore how light and compact it is. I can easily fold and lift it with one hand- and muscular, I am not. The leg rests pop on and off very very easily, and allow the legs to hang down naturally without sticking out and running into things.The front wheels take thresholds and move from hard surfaces to softer ones (like carpet and grass) like a dream. Also, the brakes hold amazingly well; no more having to worry about the chair moving while I transfer her from chair to bed or car.My only regret is that I didn’t buy a Karman Wheelchair sooner. This wheelchair is so well made and well thought out it is hard to explain, I cannot recommend it enough!!! Best analogy? It is like going from a Honda Accord to a Mercedes E class. 🙂

Just received this today. Have run it through the paces. I like the way everything snaps together and can be taken apart the same way. It is very light and sturdy too. I have been struggling moving around with a cane for the past year and my knees have only gotten worse. Now I can run around in this with no pain at all. Very maneuverable, and can squeeze into places that didn’t seem possible. I’m not sure what I will say a year from now, but as of today very satisfied with the build quality, wheels that are well balanced, (not out of round) and removable. Very sturdy and quiet. Expensive, but well worth the price. Very happy with this purchase!

This is the most amazingly well made, light-weight, balanced, manageable wheel chair I have ever laid my hands on!!! Kudos to the designer and manufacturer for exceeding my expectations on every small detail. Quick release foot rests unlike any I’ve ever seen, extra light frame but strong. Tires that actually hold the brake contact, and brakes that you don’t have to “fish” for! The seat covers are extraordinary in both comfort and functionality. EVERYTHING adjusts to a custom fit. I can’t say enough good. The shipping was right on the money, and NO assembly required.Heartfelt thanks to the Karman company for making such and incredible piece of equipment.
