What a great deal. On sale for $103 this has been a huge value. My wife had some emergency operations and we needed a wheel chair fast. They are hard to find used and rentals are around $150 a month in my area. This one is a budget build, but a quality budget build. Easy to fold, fits in the back of my Honda CRV 08. The footrests are slightly uneven which messes with her OCD but they're easy to adjust and keep her feet up. We swapped the front wheels for some thicker rubber ones so we could wheel on gravel and dirt since we live rural. The forks on it will accommodate a 2 inch wide replacement wheel, so no need to buy replacement front forks. Some folks might think it's heavy, but it's mostly metal and polymer so I don't feel it's super heavy in weight. I have no problem taking off the foot rest and loading it or lifting it, but if you aren't used to lifting awkward items it could be challenging. It was super easy to use out of the box so it gets 5 stars. At a time when I couldn't leave my wife alone and needed a wheelchair, $103 for new and delivered to my door was impossible to beat.

My first one was damaged in transit. It was extremely easy to send it back and the replacement came so fast! My family likes how lightweight this chair is. To me it is heavy, but I have a muscle wasting disease, so everything is heavy for me. It glides around so smoothly wherever we are. I did add a nice cushion to it. I do wish that the foot rests could angle down more for when we are maneuvering in tighter areas or in a crowd of people. But this chair is definitely a good one. I don't regret my purchase, and it's been 8 months now. I will be getting some type of backpack or bag for it and a cup holder. Great chair!

I bought this for recovery from foot surgery. I was non-weight bearing for 16 weeks and used this chair solidly for about 2.5 months. This made difference in my recovery because I was unable to use a knee scooter. My house is older but the only door I could not go through was the bathroom so I recommend measuring every doorway before purchasing. Otherwise, it worked very well. I do have many areas where the paint needs touched up however but it is what it is. I did add a pillow to the seat after a week, it's not padded so I wanted something more squishy. I recommend a thick piece of memory foam. It was easy to fold and an adult can put it in the car. This was a game changer for my first 2 follow up visits. I didn't have to wait for someone to get me a wheelchair from the facility or worry they may all be taken. It would also allow people to go out shopping if they needed to. I wouldn't recommend for a long term use but for a period of time no longer than a year, I think it would serve the purpose well. Without being able to move around my home, my mental health would've suffered and I'm grateful for an affordable wheelchair, easy to assemble and operate to help me through a very frustrating and difficult time.

This is the perfect size and weight for a wheelchair. I had a severe spine injury and suddenly needed a wheelchair to get around. It's comfortable, and lightweight. It's easy to put together and assemble. I like the blue color, it's not feminine and it's not masculine. It doesn't stand out but just as an accent of color. It's very functional to just close it up and put it in the back of the car and take it out. When in the sitting still position if you lock the brakes on the wheels it actually holds. I don't end up rolling down a hill. The one thing that I can say about it I do not like is the foot rest. I like my feet straight down at certain times. This always comes down to a slight angle. Which is great if you don't have that problem of needing your feet straight down. Well that being said, it's still very comfortable. You can adjust the foot rest so that your foot is up especially if you need to elevate your leg your foot or both. The ease of locking the foot rest on and off is really easy. I thought it was going to be complicated. I'm 61 years old and I have a lot of problems with my spine and legs and back. This is a godsend, both for the convenience and ease of use but also the price. A lot of the wheelchairs at the pharmacies were $300 and up. I can't afford that. This made it so that I could actually get out of my house and get around with my grandchildren and the stores with my husband. Price can be a hardship, so the value of the product coupled with the price made this a blessing. I highly recommend.

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.

I have been using this wheelchair for a couple of weeks now, and I am very happy with this purchase. I bought the 20" with the elevating leg rests. I'd give it about 4.75 stars, but there are a couple things I'd change about the chair. Overall, I'd definitely recommend the chair, but I would suggest also buying a cushion, a backpack, and a cup holder to add usability to it. I am about 245 lbs, and I have fairly wide hips, and the 20" gives me a fair amount of room, and still fits through most doorways in my house. The tightest fitting doorway that I can get through without removing the door has just under 30" of open space to roll through, and about 2"-3" of door just past to maneuver around. The arms swing back about 90 degrees, so that is helpful if I need to reach something on the floor. The wheel grips are fairly comfortable, but they do get dings in them if you run into things too hard. The wheels are smooth, so they don't provide a lot of traction, but I haven't found that to be a problem on ADA compliant ramps. The brakes are very sturdy. The right arm doesn't always lock into place, which probably has more to do with the fact that I am usually leaning toward the right (my left ankle is broken, so I keep it elevated), than with a flaw in the design. I haven't found the pouch on the back to be a large size, and so will be supplementing with an add-on pack Wheelchair Bag By Vive - Essential Wheelchair Accessory Compatible with Rolling Walkers & Transport Chairs - Hands Free Storage for Disability Equipment - Vive Guarantee which I will review after receiving, but it's good for storing, say, a snack bag and my medicines, perhaps a small canned beverage. There is not anywhere to hold a beverage, so I did add on a cup holder that attached easily to the lower forward part of the arm rest. AdirMed Adjustable Drink Holder - Walker Cup Holder - Rollator Cup Holder - Wheelchair Cup Holder - Bicycle Cup Holder For reference, the frame of the chair is about 7/8", which was a helpful measurement for picking a good drink holder. With the aforementioned additions, this chair has performed well for my needs.

My daughter and I go to Disney at least once a year but I just can’t walk through the parks like I used to any longer. So I started renting a chair every time we go. I finally decided to invest in my own chair and after going down a rabbit hole, searching page after page of wheelchairs, I landed on this one. It was a great choice, for sure. It is super lightweight so even I can get it in and out of the back of my SUV. One of the best features is the leg/foot attachment can be raised so you can elevate your legs if necessary. I had injured myself at the beginning of the year and was instructed by my doctor to keep my leg elevated as much as possible and with this chair, I was able to do that while being pushed down Main Street, USA in Magic Kingdom! My daughter says the chair is easy to maneuver, especially through crowded areas. She likes that the wheels lock so she doesn’t worry when she leaves me sitting alone. This was a great investment. Oh, and it arrived earlier than expected and it was easy to assemble. (Not a lot of assembly is required, FYI)

This is for the 20 inch chair. The bad/annoying: The ad says it's for up to 300 lbs, the manual that came with it says 250lbs. I'm 265 lbs. I sat in it and wheeled around and it did not feel like it was at its limit or straining. So I guess (?) it's 300 lbs. As soon as we put on the leg rests and put my wife in it to see how she feels about it, we heard a "click-click-click" while it was rolling. An inspection revealed that the factory left two screws out (of 4) that hold the plastic trim piece in place below the arm rest. Okay, I have screws at home, so found a pair that fit. That was as bad as it got, so I can live with it. The good. At this price, I really didn't know what to expect. My wife can walk, but not for long distances. The build of the chair makes me think this will last us a long time, using it as I described. There are a lot of plastic pieces on it though, I can see some of them snapping off if you're not careful putting it in the trunk of your car, or similar. I can't really comment on using it daily. For an average/light adult, I think (?) it would hold up. But for someone over 250 lbs, I'd be wary using it daily. We were going to rent a wheelchair for our recent cruise, but the rental cost the same as this chair, so it was a no brainer for me. And like most standard chairs it folds together horizontally. Opened, it wouldn't fit through our cabin door, but folded together it fit fine, and wasn't in the way at all in our cabin. We're very pleased with it. I took 1 star off for the weight capacity confusion and the loose trim piece.
