Easy to tote, but muscles a plus June 30, 2007 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
Compared to a regular wheelchair with the big tires, this one is a lot easier to get in and out of your car as well as cruising through small areas a regular one has trouble with. A regular wheelchair is easier to push because of the big wheels, but this chair is still fairly easy to push. Uphill and all-terrain driving requires some muscle power that may limit some weaker "pushers" but overall its not too bad. I definitely appreciate the breaking mechanism on this little chair too -- downhill is not as scary and speed can be maintained. Also, this chair can pop wheelies over doorstops, gaps and curbs a bit easier than some of the bigger chairs, and the little foot pegs on the back help with that. I would have liked the pocket to be wider on the back, since the size really limits what you can stuff in there. Don't plan on packing a sandwich or a piece of fruit, more like some crackers and a fruit roll-up or other small items. However, the price is great, since it's a lot cheaper than renting a wheelchair for only 2 months. Too bad they didn't come out with a chair with a 14" tire, since that might help with some of the pushing effort you exert with chairs with smaller tires. Overall, I think we made a good choice with this chair.

This is very light and easy to transport in trunk of car. Very comfortable riding and easy to steer. We have received several comments on how nice it is from others who have seen us use it. It was shipped to us in just a few days. We could not have been happier in our purchase.
Nice Chair May 1, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Nice Chair. Very light weight, big back tires make it easy to go over door jams and such. Tires are composite so they don't require air. My Dad says it is a very comfortable chair(he should know since it's for him). It folds up will very little effort. The foot rests are adjustable with supplied wrench. We are very happy with this chair.

Ultra light wheelchair January 9, 2007 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
This is a beautiful, lighweight wheelchair. It stated good for weight of up to 300 pounds. My husband is about 270 and it was a little tight. This is a great chair but did not work for us because my husband's leg needed to be extended and the footrests did not extend. THis is not a negative for the chair, but just did not work for us. It arrived SUPERFAST. I would recommend it for anyone who was a little less than 250 pounds and did not need to elevate their leg.
