5 out of 5 stars Great Lightweight Wheelchair   May 26, 2008
I bought this for my mother who is mobile, but has trouble walking more than around her apartment. This wheelchair was assembled right out of the box except for the footrest which installed easily. It is amazingly lightweight--easy to put into a car trunk, and also easy to maneuver. I do recommend buying a seat cushion if the user is going to be sitting in it for any length of time. They Fly-Weight chair folds up simply by pulling up the seat. It stands on its own in that position. There is a small pocket on the back of the chair suitable for a wallet, eyeglasses, etc. The arms are padded. My Mom recently attended an all day family event and was in the chair for about 4 hours and seemed comfortable. We did have a seat cushion in the chair.

We are very happy with this a s transport chair. This may not be suitable for someone who needs to be in a chair for long periods of time.

I highly recommend this product.

Drive Medical FW19BL Fly-Weight Transport Chair, 19 Inch, Blue
I saw this chair at almost twice the price at a local drugstore chain. It's great to use for shopping trips as it is very light,(19pds) and stores easily. I can now take my Mom out without breaking my back loading a heavy wheelchair in and out ot the car.



5 out of 5 stars Very happy with the Drive wheelchair   March 23, 2008
Someone recommended the Drive fly-lite wheelchair (we purchased the fly-weight wheelchair which was slightly less expensive), but they paid over $300 in a local medical supply store; we paid about $125 at Amazon. This is a well built, fits in smaller trunks as even the handles fold, and is light weight. We use to lug a heavy wheelchair around, and this has made bringing a wheelchair a breeze. The doctor's office was so impressed with it, and especially the price, they plan to purchase one through Amazon also. If you need a light weight wheelchair, this is the one to purchase. I had also called Drive to ask the difference between the fly-lite and fly-weight wheelchairs, and the main thing seemed to be this has four larger size wheels, which is easier to push over rough surfaces - yet was $50 less expensive. Highly recommend purshasing, and stop killing your back carrying/lifting a heavy wheelchair.

I was looking for a light, easy to handle wheelchair to transport my elderly mother. This unit is light, sturdy and folds easily to fit into the trunk of a car. It certainly met my requirements. In addition, the delivery was made as promised.
