Drive Medical Lightweight Folding Transport Wheelchair - Reliable Mobility Support - Durable Steel Frame - Swing-Away Footrests -

I broke my foot in 4 places and have been non-weight bearing for the past 4 weeks. This little chair is perfect. Being so lightweight and folding down so small makes it easy to get into a car. It is easy to navigate and makes tight turns which is really helpful in small spaces. It is comfortable to sit in for long periods. I contacted customer support for a missing screw cap and they were very helpful. Cannot give this product enough praise. Read more

Light weight yet sturdy! Very good wheelchair. Comes assembled, just had to attach the foot rests. Highly recommend Read more

Very complete works very well for your loved one or whoever else you want to transport I had no problems with it and I recommend them highly for the money. It’s a very good deal so if you need a transport chair, you can’t get much better for that than the price Read more

This is a great transport wheelchair. It folds easily; easy to maneuver/great turning radius; rolls smoothly. It is a little heavy, but the frame is steel after all tho not overly heavy to lift. The brakes are easy to set and release either by hand or by foot. The footrest folds up/down fairly easily and the entire footrest arm is easy to release so it folds backwards flat against the wheelchair side for easier transporting. However, it does not lock in place so they do have a tendency to fall off. When transporting the wheelchair, it is better to remove the footrest arms and bag them separately. (If boarding a plane, put the footrests in a bag and take them on board so it doesn't get lost.) The seat is pretty standard and not really padded, but comfortable enough. However, this is the 17" model so it may be a tighter squeeze for a larger person. The top half of the backrest folds down nicely though it would be nice if there was a pocket on the back of the upper and/or lower backrest...not to store anything while the chair is folded, but it would be nice to have a place to put things such as a towel or other small items while transporting someone.

This transport chair works better than the previous Drive transport chair model that we used for years for my 96 year old father-in-law who lives with us and weighs about 190 pounds and suffers from bone on bone knee issues. It was time for a new chair because the plastic on the arm rest pad broke on the previous chair. While the chair comes in a 17 inch and 19 inch wide model we purchased the 19 inch wide model to match the previous one. I noticed that this Drive transport chair was different than the one we used previously for years. The foot rests are height adjustable., the previous chair did not have that feature. Even better than that, was the fact that I could lift up the foot rest and the foot rest stayed up making it easier when entering and exiting the chair. The previous model foot rests would not always stay lifted up. As with the previous model the foot rests are easily removable and have the swing away feature which also comes with a locking device to keep them in place in the front of the chair.. I am able to put the transport chair easily in my trunk by folding the chair. It is nice to know that the back folds down and the foot rests easily come off should it be necessary to fit in smaller vehicle spaces. One of the best features of the chair is how easy the chair is to maneuver. My experience is that the many other transport chairs are harder to get around in small spaces. As with the previous model, the brake levers are closer to the wheel, but reachable so that the rider can put the brakes on and off with their hands if necessary while sitting in the chair unassisted. The person assisting may be like me and find it much easier to use the shoes on your feet to manipulate the brakes and avoid bending over. Lightweight and easily transportable. Truly a blessing for all involved. Read more

Sturdy and compact. A bit heavy but it is definitely able to carry someone up to the weight limit. It is a bit narrow but it's good for transport. Read more
