When I purchased this transport chair for my wife I was a little hesitant due to the price, but it has been worth every penny. Other wheel chairs were heavy and hard to load in the back of our car. This one is so light I can easily lift it and slide it in. I purchased the 22 inch wide seat and it is super comfortable for my wife to sit in for long periods, unlike the cheap ones or what she has used in medical centers. It came assembled in the box, all I had to do was tear down one side and roll it out. It has two leg/foot parts that were not assembled but they are very simple to put on and take off. I really enjoy having the handbrakes I can use on inclines to keep the chair from getting away. When sitting in one place it also has manual lever brakes like any wheel chair that can be engaged when I need to leave the area for a moment. The seat has two handhold on each side that can be used to pull upward and close the chair to an 11 inch width. By placing a hand on either side of the seat and pressing down it unfolds easy to sit in. The only negative I can comment on is the foot rests come with a strap to keep the heal from falling back and off the rest. But for my wife it kept her feet too far forward and was not comfortable. I removed the straps and she has not has any problems with her feet slipping off the foot rests. The chair also comes with a seatbelt which would be a big plus for someone who had difficulty sitting up and possibly falling forward. I’m very satisfied with the construction and ease of use and highly recommend this transport chair.

My son was recently diagnosed with cancer. That and treatments left him in need of a chair asap. He’s 220 lbs and wide so I needed something strong and able to get him around easily and easy for me to use since I’m only 5’1″ and 125 lbs but I’ve got to be able to push it. This chair has been a savior to me. Not only comfortable for him but easy for me to lift in and out of the trunk. Easy to push, easy hand brakes and has a tilt guard for extra security. I highly recommend this chair. The arms lift out of the way with a press of a button and lightweight. Only thing I’d like for it to have that it doesn’t have, is the legs to be able to raise but that’s nit picking. It works just perfectly. Even has a built-in pocket in the back. This chair is perfect.

This NOVA transport chair is amazing. It folds up like a dream and is light enough to just lift it up and stick it in the back of the car. The leg rests are comfortable and easy to take on and off. The 22″ seat fit my big butt comfortably and didn’t feel tight at all….and I do have a big butt.Besides looking gorgeous in black and red, this is one sturdy chair. It doesn’t shake, rattle, or roll at all. It is SOLID as a rock. This is a wonderful chair and I recommend it wholeheartedly. It has made my life so much easier.
