   It works really well with my Mom and allows me to take her for much longer outings than when she uses her walker.

   Two cons: Booklet had a typo so it was hard to understand how to fold the chair. Second con is that there isn’t a catch holding it together when folded.

   Although the chair it self seems to be holding up, the carry bag is useless! Ripped first day of travel. I was left with nothing to transport the chair in on our trip.

   Front wheels are crumbling after 5 years. Keep this in mind to perhaps change out at year 4.

   So far so good. My 95 year old mother loves it. Light and compact when folded. Easy to manuver. Little high which makes it harder to get out of if your legs are lot long. Would be nice if it had some kind of basket or someplace to hold a few things though. Over all it does the job.

   I read all the bad reviews and did some modifications before I brought it on a 3 week trip to Hong Kong. 1) People complain about losing the bolts that held the removable front wheels: I replaced them with clevis pins (M6x30mm) https://www.best-wheelchair.com.com/gp/product/B01ARAEFPI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and secure it with hairpin clips. The pins stayed in place and can be easily removed to take the wheels off. 2) As others have suggested, I bought long velcro straps and placed them on the handlebar. It’s used it to stop the retracted chair from opening accidentally when you take it out of the trunk or jetbridge. The velcro is also a good way to hold shopping bags. (see 2nd pic, I used velcro to hold the bags. If you want a quality suit in Hong Kong, Jim’s is highly recommended) 3) Some complained that the foam on the handle is cheap and goes flat after few uses. I replaced it with pipe insulation. Very comfy. 4) I applied Loctite to all the nuts and bolts. Although the bolts seems to have Loctite applied from the factory. I reapplied it with Loctite just to be sure. I took the modified chair on a 3 week trip to Hong Kong. It held up well. Very light, easy to fold and put away even on a crowded subway train (Pic 1). It went over uneven streets of Hong Kong and cobblestoned sidewalks of Macau without any issues. Be very careful when going over streetcar tracks. The chair is light and the front wheel bear quite a bit of weight so if it hits a gap on a train track or raised sidewalk, you have the potential of ejecting your passenger. Always remember to transfer a bit of the weight to the rear wheels when going over uneven surfaces. Excellent chair, well worth the money.

   Everything is good and very solid although it looks flimsy. Only the travel bag is useless as it break at first attempt.
