Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Lighter, more compact, and more easily maneuverable than a regular wheelchair. Folds well and goes in back of SUV so much easier than the full size version. Also, compared to the full size drive, the arm rests come forward further, allowing better leverage when the patient tries to stand up. Brakes can't be activated by the patient; they ARE convenient for the care-giver to apply. No leaning over the patient to push hard-to-move levers against the wheels. Why 4 stars? The footrests don't have a heel strap to keep the patient's feet from hitting the front wheels; if they slip back just a little, pushing and turning suddenly become difficult. The seat belt would be more convenient if there were a way to stow it out of the way when folded. It just flops around now. Also, it would be a great plus if there were an easy way to stow the foot rests with the chair when folded. 18 months later: still holding up well; we're happy with it, and nothing has broken.
