5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the description!!, November 27, 2007

About a year ago, I had purchased a slim portable wheelchair for my mom who had some foot and heart surgery. We still use this chair because it is easy and convenient to use in stores and thru doorways, but the seat is too skinny to accommodate my mom's husband who is somewhat larger. So I bought them this wheelchair for when his back flares up. It is better than we thought from the description. The photo makes it look a little flimsy, but it is not at all -- it is very solid and firm! It is a little tricky to close, especially for my mom who doesn't have great strength in her arms. It is very easy to move around and easily accommodates my mom's husband and she's able to push him around with little effort. It is very easy to open and with the light weight, mom is able to lift it to put it in the car or to put it away in the closet. The delivery was very fast; we are so relieved to have such a great chair!!

This review is from: Light 14.8 lbs Medline Freedom Transport Wheelchair 300 lb Cap Chair, BLUE

I recently purchased this transport chair for my 83 year old mother. We already had a wheelchair rented through her medicare but it was 40 pounds, way too heavy for me to lift and it was hard to get in our small trunk. I saw this transport chair read the reviews and decided to purchase it for my mom who is O2 dependent and needs it mainly when she goes to the doctor.

I am amazed by how lightweight and easy it is to pack up and go. It is also very sturdy and solidly made. So far, I have taken my mom to her appointments, the gambling boat and plan to bring it with us when we go to Disney World later this year.

My mom loves it's features such as the cup holder and storage. She is very comfortable in the seat and the arms allow her chair to be pushed right up to the table when we go out for dinner. The foot rest is great as well. I love how easily it maneuvers and pushing it is a breeze. I am now planning to purchase the O2 holder for this chair.

This review is from: Light 14.8 lbs Medline Freedom Transport Wheelchair 300 lb Cap Chair- BURGUNDY (Health and Beauty)

Things to be aware of when ordering this chair... The burgundy chair I ordered was not the one that was pictured. If you click on 'red', a blue one will appear. That is the new style; the handles stick out at about a 35 degree angle (awkward) and on the box it is described as EXTRA WIDE, which it is! I got the color I ordered, but many other things were different. There is a big gap between the back and the seat; you will need something like a lumbar cushion to make the chair comfortable. The chair, with the footrests, weighs 24 lbs, not 14.8 lbs. Be aware that if yours is coming from Wheelchairs Plus, they charge a 25% restocking fee if you decide to return it. Return shipping is at your expense; for me it was about $25. I wish I would have known all of this before ordering this chair. Be careful if your product is coming from an outside vendor.
