  • 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 purchase and price!
Size: 20 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
My husband needed a good wheel chair large enough for his size and easy to push for me! We are both very pleased with the quality and reasonable price! It is good sized, locks safely, folds easily and is not too heavy to lift into trunk of car. We would recommend!

  • My experience using this wheelchair. Pros and cons.
Size: 18 Inch Style: Swing Away Footrests
I injured my ankle and, while I can walk short distances, long ones are an issue and will be for quite a while as I heal. I had tickets to a live show that I bought months ago. That involved way more walking than I could do. I had been considering buying a wheelchair for my older sister who has mobility issues so, when I saw this one for under $100, I figured I would use it for the show and any other challenging situations that come up while I heal plus we would have it for my sister when she needed it. It did come completely assembled except for the leg rests. That's good because my husband dreads assembling stuff. It is blue but not garish. The seat is 18" which is plenty for me (135 pounds) but my heavier sister (160ish pounds) would be more comfortable in a 20" although she still can use this chair. We went to the show last week and the chair folded fine and unfolded without a hitch. The seat wasn't the most comfortable. I am going to buy a pad for it for whoever uses it in the future. Pushing the chair was easy and I was quickly able to use it myself although I never have been wheelchair bound. It rolls smoothly especially inside. The brakes work and kept the chair from moving. I don't think they would be strong enough to keep it from rolling down a steep hill or in a similar situation but they were fine for keeping the chair in place on a flat surface or small incline. During the middle of the show, one of the footrests flew to the side. It got wiggly and hard to manage. I think this is more about how my husband attached the footrest than the chair itself. He didn't have the tool - or any tool - to fix it so I had to deal with it. It would not have been problem even for someone completely wheelchair bound, just a small annoyance, When my husband pushed me uphill on cement to the parking garage, it jostled me around quite a lot and the wheels skipped a bit. Not much but he did notice as did I. The chair folded down with ease and fit fine in the back of the car. Since then, we have taken my sister to the lake using the chair. She has severe balance issues and numbness in her feet and legs. It was a godsend to have the chair. Again we did notice that, on gravely areas, the wheels tended to skip a bit. Otherwise, the only complaint was that the seat was a bit uncomfortable. That can be rectified. One thing about this chair that my sister mentioned was that the leg rests don't move up or down. They are fixed in the down position so a short person's feet may not reach or someone who wants or needs to elevate their legs, can't. I have sat in lots of wheelchairs in the hospital and rented one a while back when I had a back issue. This one doesn't feel like the hospital ones. They feel a lot sturdier but, at the same time, bulkier. This is good for maneuvering around and fitting into smaller spots. For at home use, I think this chair is fine. I am not sure that I would recommend it for someone who is wheelchair bound and needs to be in it all day and night. I think a better quality and slightly roomier one may be best. But for those who need a chair for an injury or issue and use it on as needed basis or inside where there is no tough turf, it is fine. It would have cost me $35 to rent a chair for the night. This chair was $95 to buy and have for good. There is no contest that buying was the best option. For the price point, I feel this chair is fine. It is well made and both my sister and I felt safe in it. I am going with 4 stars. It isn't made for tough or gravely turf and I definitely would not perch it on a steep hill and trust the brakes but, in general, it is a great value if you don't need the footrests to elevate. **** Pics are not attaching. I will try again in a few days. ... show more
