This chair is easy to push. Like the added bar feature, however the bar is hard to get secured each time you need to use the chair. Feels like plastic in the handles are starting to strip. Chair is heavier than expected. Hard for me to load and unload by myself. Have to remove legs and bar every time we put this chair in the trunk for travel. Big hassle when trying to make short trips.
Chair does push easily on grass and uneven surfaces. Good for heavier person as far as being sturdy.

NOTE NB This product cannot be returned! It is over $500CAD not worth the money folk. Stitching already pulling loose on the straps to pull chair together for storage/transporting after ONE use. Seat extremely unforgiving had to put sheep skin on top for comfort. Will also not go thru residential doorways. Heavy for putting into trunk of car. If seniors DO NOT PURCHASE. Not suitable at all as a transport chair. Read my general comments on pieces I have returned – I don’t post negative unless it is totally warranted. This transport chair is a huge red flag. Female used once.

This thing is not anywhere near worth the money I spent on it. I’ve only had it a few months and I’ve already replaced the seat once and the padded arm rest on one side is now coming off every time I use it. It doesn’t fold and unfold properly either. The reason I had to replace the seat was because the handles tore off due to me having to shake the thing to get it to fold up. I tried working directly with the manufacturer and they were of very limited help. They sent me a new seat with little fuss but when using wd-40 didn’t work to keep it from being difficult to fold and unfold they sent me back to best-wheelchair.com for a refund/replacement. best-wheelchair.com refused, offered only a partial refund. I went back to the manufacturer and told them best-wheelchair.com refused to fix the problem and they just sent me back to best-wheelchair.com again. I paid waaay too much money for this oversized paper weight.

Used for 6’2″ male, 270 lbs, some walking ok. Used for travel. Pros: Comfortable. Lightweight, very durable, sturdy. A solid chair that can withstand numerous plane, train, subway, bus, and cab rides. For cabs, the foot rests can be removed in seconds and back folded down just as quickly. Chair can be placed flat in sedans or at an angle in the front or back seat if needed. Hand brakes work perfectly. As an added plus, the two pockets behind the backrest came in very handy. Cons: Width promotes comfort, but results in a tight squeeze in some doorways and elevators. As some have indicated, position of footrests results in legs parted slightly which could be awkward for women, but comfortable for men. The screw on push bar was not used, as removing it takes 2-3 minutes so we did not use while in transit. What I do not know is how much of an impact the smaller wheels (vs “traditional” larger wheels) have in effectively pushing uphill. Despite the Cons, I am very pleased with this product and would recommend especially for men, a larger body type, and for folks who are able to walk a bit to access narrow passage ways.

Pro-“relatively lightweight, great features like locking handbrakes/push rod/collapsibility/very wide seat/nice footrests
Con-mildly cumbersome when collapsed; small wheels in back do not allow easy long distance pushing

With my mother loosing much of her autonomy, we were looking for a comfortable chair from which she could get up easily, the chair having a higher seat. A chair wide enough to sit comfortably while wearing winter coat and waiting long period of time at hospital. This chair met all of our requirements. The communication with the supplier was also quite pleasant. Thank you so much!!
Ce fut un plaisir de faire affaire avec cette compagnie. Cette chaise de transport est idéale. Elle est plus haute de siège que la plupart; permettant de se relever plus facilement. Elle est aussi bien spacieuse, parfaite pour le transport alors que la personne porte manteau d’hiver et qu’elle doit passer de longues heures d’attente à l’hôpital. La largeur des roues convient à la largeur standard des rampes de transport. Nous l’adorons!! Merci

Sturdy, high quality chair, easy to handle. I traveled with my mother to Las Vegas and was very glad to have this chair. The crossbar is great for easier handling and seems to add some stability to the chair. The chair just seemed to glide well. It folds easy and is relatively light considering it is a heavy-duty chair that can hold a heavier person. It is a bit wide – great for the rider (comfortable, wide seat, padded armrests), but it does take up some space. It fit fine folded in my SUV, the limo SUV, and the airport parking shuttle van, and I checked it at the airline gate with no problems, but I did not test it in a car trunk. Unfolded it fit through all the doorways in my home, hotel, and elevators easily. Very happy with purchase.

I have tried many heavy duty wheelchairs and transport chairs, but this is the best by far. It’s very sturdy, and very easy to maneuver, fold, and transport. In fact, I move myself around in this chair very well using my feet, and occasionally a short cane to help steer, if I’m very tired, something I could not do if it weren’t so light. My health and dexterity problems, along with my excessive weight, make it nearly impossible for me to get myself around well in a regular wheelchair, but this transport chair has been a lifesaver.
