  • Comes completely assembled; Great little wheelchair!
Size: 18 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
I ordered this for my husband who broke his leg in a fall a couple of weeks ago. It came completely assembled; just slide it right out of the box and attach the snap on foot rests. It is sturdy and rolls smoothly. Comes in 3 widths. I wanted one small enough in width to fit through our 28” bathroom doors, and this one does it. (I got the 18” one) My husband is 6’1” and 220# and he fits in it just fine. All in all, I can’t imagine a better buy on a quality product if you need a wheel chair. ... show more

  • Affordable, lightweight and functional
Size: 18 Inch Style: Swing Away Footrests
Footrests are easy to put on, take off, adjust for length, and swing away. The armrests fully swinging up and back may be one of the best features. Footpegs in the back make pushing over a door threshold much easier. Light enough for self-propelling. Great chair for the price. Adjustable tension on the locks is super helpful. Sturdy, and it fits in the trunk of a sedan. ... show more

  • Excellent value for the money
Size: 16 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
I broke my leg last week, and the wheelchair belonging to our family was designed for my super short mom and was large and cumbersome. I landed on this Drive model, and it works so very well! The size is perfect, allowing for easy movement through my 36” doorways. It would be easy enough even with 32” doors, I think, but I’m not great at steering just yet. The 16” seat on this one works well for me, size 10-12 in clothing and a bit larger in the hip and thigh. Sometimes the wheel rubs against the plastic side panel due to my girth, but a readjustment solves the problem. I wish the plastic panel was a little more firm, but it works for me…a person with larger hips and thighs might want to consider the 18” or 20” model. It has a very solid build and rolls smoothly. I got a small hanging bag to hold my phone and other needs, but it interferes with the wheel and handholds…I have a clip-on stroller/wheelchair cup and phone holder on the way today, which I think will be a much better option. I can’t yet speak to longevity, but we have a smaller Drive model chair (on four small wheels) that has endured a lot of family use, including a trip to Disney World with my daughter and her broken toe, that is still going strong and getting passed around the fam. I feel very good about the brand, and I think this chair will be another one that gets lots of use in the future. Upon delivery, the chair is fully assembled, other than the leg rests which are easy to install with no tools necessary. The chair arrived without the elevated leg rests, unfortunately, so I immediately went to the link on the product page to ask about getting them sent. I was assured they would ship in 2-4 days, but two days later, they were on the porch via FedEx. EXCELLENT customer service, there. The calf rest is not adjustable, but it’s perfectly comfortable for me, 5’4” tall with average length legs. The length is adjustable, but even on the most extended setting, it’s not quite long enough for me to keep the footrest in place…I have to fold back the foot rest to use it in elevated position, as I am not supposed to have any pressure on the leg for quite a few weeks to come. The foot rests will be perfect when I can finally bend my knee and lower the legs, so this shortcoming doesn’t really matter to me. (Pics show only one leg rest attached, but there are two.) This is an all-around solid choice, and it’s just so affordable that any detractions are just not important enough to worry about. I am thrilled with this chair, and grateful to have something to allow me some mobility. ... show more

  • Great for the Price
Size: 20 Inch Style: Swing Away Footrests
This is the 3rd time I'm in a wheelchair. The cost to rent in my area is $88/wk for a manual and $150/wk for an electric. I spent almost $200 each of the last times I rented. It was cheaper to buy this here at $139. I did order the 20" seat. I'm a size 16 and pregnant, the 16" rental wasn't wide enough. I could have gotten away with the 18" but I'm reusing the gel seat I already had for the previous rental, so it works out. It came in good condition and was easy to set up. I like the color. It's easy to maneuver and collapse for my trunk. I wouldn't call this lightweight, the rental was lighter, but I can manage getting it in and out alone. I have sciatica and SPD, so I'm not bound all the time but need it for longer distances. We've taken this to the zoo, 3 parks and the store. The breaks lock well and my kids and partner can push me easily when my arms get tired. This wheelchair is a good buy for short term use and is significantly cheaper than a rental. My only issue is I'm 5'2" and my arms are pretty short. The chair arms rub my forearms when I push myself. That wasn't an issue with the rental. There isn't really a way to lower the arms to accommodate for this. ... show more

  • great choice, super useful
Size: 18 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
this "Drive" Blue Streak Lightweight Wheelchair with swing-away elevating leg rests is all that and more. i've been using it for a few months while i recover from foot-ankle surgery. that said, i have not had to sit in it for longer than 1-2 hours at most; i use it occasionally to transport me greater distances than are practical with a walker. i dislike that the pouch on the back of the back rest is too small to be practical and also unreachable to me; a side-pouch option would be nice. there are many more things to like, however. i like that i can wheel it myself as needed; it's very handy in tight spaces as it's easy to navigate. it is light enough for my husband to fold up and stash in the trunk, the leg rests detach/attach easily, the elevation is adjustable, and the chair is comfortable. the brakes hold it securely when i transfer in or out. after almost three months of use it still is like nearly-new. a benefit i didn't expect is that using it has made me aware of many accessibility challenges that people with limited mobility have to overcome. i'm so thankful a piece of equipment like this was affordable since it is helping me get through a difficult time while learning to appreciate what many people go through daily. ... show more
