Customer Review: Lightweight, easy to use, lots of features
Summary: 5 Stars

Drive Wheelchair

I purchased this wheelchair not knowing it would fold together, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it did. You simply lift it up by the canvas seating pad and everything collapses. The leg rests also fold aside very easily and the armrests fold up and out of the way so you can slide onto your bed. I tested the maneuverability and it fits into narrow passages and doorways (even ones found in homes that were made in the 1950s). Turning, moving forward, and backwards takes some getting used to if you haven't used a wheelchair. The controls are similar to that of a tracked vehicle in that you control turning and movement via the individual wheels. Or you can have someone just push you around. The wheelchair wasn't very heavy for me, I could lift it around without any difficulty. The shipping was extremely fast and kudos to Amazon for the excellent service. I tried ordering a wheelchair via a medical supply store and they gave me the run around for well over a month. I ordered this chair from Amazon and it arrived within 2 days as guaranteed.

Unfortunately, the packaging wasn't very sufficient. There wasn't any packing material to protect the chair, and the box already fell apart by the time it arrived. The OEM should consider more robust protection.

Pros: Easy to use, lots of features, affordable

Cons: Packaging isn't that great, it could use more protection and better box securements.

Overall: 5/5
