Chair is a nice upgrade to a standard chair. Purchased for my mother who states her new chair is so much more comfortable…thats good enough for me. Built well, but light. Was also one of the only non-custom chairs i could find with an 18 inch deep seat and we needed that extra few inches,

I’m a 6′ 200lbs stroke victim and I bought the 18″ wide model. I like this wheelchair a lot compared to the classic black Drive wheelchairs. First it is much lighter so my partner can get it in and out of the car trunk easier. It provides lumbar support as advertised so it is very comfortable on my back and butt even after 3-4 hours of sitting. The armrest are part of the frame and not fold back, however I can roll upto the kitchen table and the arms go under it allowing me to work at my laptop. The wheelchair is smaller than a regular wheelchair and i can maneuver in small spaces without beating our walls. The breaks are great and easy to use with large molded levers. As for the challenges of using this chair: 1) It’s harder for me to get out of it because its lower than my old chair which also had a thick seat cushion for comfort. It is hard to get my butt to the front edge of the chair to get my nose over my toes to stand up. The armrest are very strong but shorter and lower than i am used too. I have only had this wheelchair for two days and have yet to be able to stand up by myself in the middle of the room, at 6′ i have long legs. The footrest are much easier to use and fold out of the way nicely. Because the wheelchair is narrow, it can sit to the side of our hallway without hindering passage. So far i love this chair and will update this review as i learn more. It sucks that i couldn’t find a way to buy it using medicare, but it is wort the expense,

What a MARVELOUS wheelchair! Hubby and I were both extremely pleased — and surprised — when we sat in it and were so comfortable. Although the wheelchair is for him, I didn’t want to get out of it. When I finally relinquished it to him, he sat in it and his eyes lit up. I am absolutely DELIGHTED, especially since he did not want to get ANY wheelchair and fought me — and his doctor — for months about it. I was also blown away by how agile it is, it spins on a dime and takes up no space at all in the process! Several times, hubby said, “this is not good, I’m never gonna wanna get out of this thing.” We had planned to keep it in the trunk of the car permanently, for use outside the home, and he was going to use his walker indoors, but he’s changing his thinking now. He really and truly loves the chair, and I could not be happier. It’s wonderful to see the man smiling for a change. We did the right thing, choosing this chair over all the others. It’s gonna change his life now. Truly. I’m so grateful.
