  • Wheelchair is exactly as advertised
Size: 18 Inch Style: Swing Away Footrests
This item is exactly as advertised. The adjustable foot rests are great. It's sturdy, nice looking, foldable, the calf strap that can be attached for leg comfort is flexible but sturdy causing good comfort for a person's legs. It is partially blue and partially black. It's a nice blue. The seat is padded enough to be comfortable. It has solid brakes when needed for getting in and out. I can easily roll the wheels myself and I have hand issues but that's not a problem. It comes fully assembled. You just need to attach the foot rests which is easily done. No tools necessary. Easily foldable, not too large to be cumbersome but not too small to be comfortable and sturdy. I can walk and haven't used a wheelchair before. I am flying out to see my family in Kentucky. I know they will be taking me to a lot of places where I would have to do too much walking for me. That's why I purchased it. They can push me the distances we will need to go. I highly recommend this product. Note: the airline I called doesn't charge for the wheelchair. Don't hesitate to get this product, it's everything it says it is. ... show more

  • Great wheelchair
Size: 20 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
This wheelchair is a great value for the money. Sturdy, moves well, comfortable and strong. I bought it for a 96 year old amputee and it works perfectly for her, but will work for anyone. I highly recommend it.

  • It's A Big Surprise in the way It unfolds, and comes out of the box Ready to go for a ride with you
Size: 18 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
The height of this wheel chair are normal. It is a pretty colored blue, gives a color to you to go out in & not that same old Black or Brown. The arms go down so that you can get under tables. It is not so heavy that you can't maneuver around things with ease.You really have very little to assemble, most comes together & it folds so you can put it in a vehicle. It seems to be well constructed & I can get into most rooms with room. ... show more

  • Wireless Great and Easy to use
Size: 18 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
Doctor stated I was only approved to rent one by insurance company. This one works really well and easy to use. Especially with living in a rural area. The big wheels in front help really well. Great for the price. Durable.

  • Overall good but not the version I ordered.
Size: 20 Inch Style: Elevating Leg Rests
Everything is mostly identical except the elevating leg rests did not have the push in snap pin system for extending the leg length as shown in the ad image. The version we got was a black pipe (not silver) fitted inside the blue one and you have to loosen a bolt and pull the footrest part out then re-tighten the bolt back in place. It makes the version we got harder to adjust and the black pipe could stand to be a bit longer for longer legged people who need to elevate their legs. The box was beat up to all hell, but the chair was otherwise in new condition minus a few loose bolts that had to be tightened. The "drive" stickers that were placed on the outer sides of the thin plastic armrest panels were peeling off (curling away from the plastic) which was fine I just took them off and tossed them. One of the elevating leg rests didn't want to go back down because the bolt was somewhat loose, which caused the bar to stay extended and the lever couldn't be pushed to get the mechanism to release. Thankfully loosening the bolt more made it so we could get the mechanism to unlock, push the leg back down in place and tighten the end bolt back in place. Otherwise it is exactly as ordered, funnily enough the item was ordered from home depot, as there was an invoice slip on the box. Had I known that home depot had these I would have ordered directly from them. Initially I placed an order from amazon and it was to be shipped from amazon directly and was cheaper but there was no shipping date. I called after 2 days of not having a shipping date to ask about the shipping as we needed the chair quickly. after speaking with a csr i was told I would hear something about the shipping in 48 hours. The next day I went to check on it and found the order had been canceled with no notice no reason nothing. This was the 20 inch one we ordered and there were no other quick options so after getting frustrated after talking with another csr who was not able to help me get it reordered from amazon and give me a date for arrival, I reordered on my own and chose the other shipper and paid 40 bucks more plus paid for shipping etc. it was a nightmare process and took over a week to get in addition to the 3 days of dealing with amazon. I am only adding the shipping info for others in case another family / person needs a chair in a hurry so you'll be aware of what we went through. It seems like a very sturdy chair and everything else was perfect, we only just got it so I'll give it a while and add to my review once we see how well it does for us. Overall I have faith in the drive brand, a bit frustrated by the difference in the elevating leg rests and the not quite long enough bar for the footrests when the legs are fully raised, but we can work around that. Otherwise I think it'll do us fine. Its a bit clunky and heavy for me I'm 4'10 so when I have to lift it into my truck for use in getting my Dad to his doctors it will be a momentary issue but I think considering what it does, how it is made, the ease of moving the parts, it'll likely do us fine. One thing to mention is that the armrest release is just a piece of plastic. I can see how long term that might prove to be annoying if someone moves those armrests a lot that thin piece of plastic won't likely last a long time or will wear down over time. ** Update Aug 2023 The chair was working well for us, Dad doesn't use it often due to his doing better, but it is very helpful for when he has to go long distances, or needs to have a seat anywhere we go if he gets tired. However, somehow on one use, a super tiny clip that held one of the leg rests together disappeared. I suspect from moving the chair and rests to and from the truck. I called Drive directly, and they sent us 2 brand new leg rests free of charge. I was grateful because that tiny little thin metal clip held the whole dang thing together and I was using electrical tape to hold it together but that made it's use much more difficult. I am SO totally impressed with Drive Medical for sending the free pair of leg replacements, they were caring, wanted to know what model it was for future chair updates and got me a new set of leg rests within 3 days. I'm updating my review from 4 stars to 5, their customer service was amazing and the new set of leg rests were also the type I had originally ordered with the push button adjustments, so that makes me very happy. I can't say enough good things about Drive after this experience, the man I spoke with was just amazing. ... show more

  • Beyond Pleased!
Size: 18 Inch Style: Swing Away Footrests
I came home from the hospital after a leg amputation with a heavy-duty expensive wheelchair. It works fine, but for a 5'2" 118lb woman, it is a lot to maneuver. I ordered this one as a back-up and couldn't be happier. It has become my first choice inside the house as it is lightweight, easy to propel, glides through doorways and is very comfortable. I didn't buy a seat cushion, but did paid $10 to get a cup/cell phone holder. Please note that the foot rests are completely removable. I don't use them and leave them off, but unless you need the elevated leg rests, the standard foot pedals work great. I still can't believe the quality and benefits of this wheelchair for the price. Outstanding purchase! ... show more
