Perfect size wheelchair for home
Very easy to put together and so far seems highly durable. Easy to use, plenty of room, adjustable as needed. I am less than 100 lbs and got the 16 inch and it’s perfect and very easy to maneuver through doorways and nut bump the walls. Looks just like the photo. So far, I have had no issues. It does seem a little heavier than the specks but not much.

Comes assembled and easy to use
I got this for my husband and it has been great, easy to fold up, still kind of heavy but thank God for His strength. Well worth the money

Well made- excellent value- a game changer
I had an unexpected tibial fracture with zero weight bearing. We ordered this wheelchair and it was a total game changer! Some of the best money ever spent! I love this wheelchair! Well made, easy to maneuver and light enough for my husband to lift. Highly recommended!!

GREAT WHEELCHAIR
Just received this chair for my husband. Very affordable, super easy to set up, just slide out of the box, pop it open and put on the foot rests. I am 80 years old and had no trouble setting it up by myself. Its a smooth ride and large enough for my husband. We look forward to being able to use this to transport my husband to and from events/appointments with ease.

Comfortable and Easy to Transport for Community Outings
I purchased this wheelchair for my mother to use when we take her out into the community. She does not use a wheelchair on a day-to-day basis, but for longer outings this has worked very well for us. It is easy to push and maneuver, and my mother is generally comfortable in it. She has mentioned that she would like an additional seat cushion, especially for outings where she may be sitting in it for a longer period of time, so that will probably be my next purchase. The wheelchair is fairly easy to transport. The footrests have simple latches that allow them to swing out and come off completely, which makes it easier to load into the back of my SUV. It fits well, although it does take up a good amount of cargo space. I also appreciate that it is light enough for me to lift and handle without too much difficulty. When we first took it out of the box, it seemed like it was stuck and would not open. The joints or bolts were just a little tight, and it took some effort to get it unfolded the first time. Once we got it moving, though, we did not have any real problems with it. Overall, this has been a very good wheelchair for taking my mother to appointments, shopping, events, and other community outings. It is comfortable, manageable for me to lift and transport, and easy to use. I would definitely recommend it for someone looking for a wheelchair for occasional outings or mobility assistance.

Everything
I thought I would buy this for a computer/craft chair instead of a desk chair because I could lock the wheels when I get up and down for my craft projects. It's one of the smartest things I've done. Everything is fabulous with is chair. One item I will note is the wheel locks are hard to push down but I think within time that will get easier. I have wide hips and the 20 inch chair is perfect. I added an ergonomic cushion on the set which is a nice addition for setting a long time. I love, love this chair. Couldn't ask for anything better.

Works Well, Great Value
Super happy with this purchase. User is suffering from severe joint problems and has found relief using his own chair on trips to the hospital. Swing-away footrests work well for someone for whom lifting a leg to is very painful. The height of the footrests is adjustable, we were able to lower it and greatly reduce discomfort transitioning into a chair. Took the the pegs off which was easy, there's a screw in the bottom. Sturdy, collapses easily. Not super lightweight, but easy enough to move in an out of the car. The 20" x 16" version is reportedly comfortable for a 5' 10' 260 lb man. Medical sheepskin makes it even more comfortable for longer use, giving back the ability to move more freely around the house.

Sturdy, Smooth Ride for Long Outings
We got this wheelchair for my mother-in-law, and it’s been a reliable choice for taking her on longer trips to the mall and park. Even though it’s technically a transport wheelchair, it handles distance really well—easy to push, rolls smoothly, and feels sturdy without being overly heavy. It also folds up quickly, which makes it convenient for loading into the car. The flip-back arms are a helpful feature, especially for transfers, though the armrests themselves are a bit high and not adjustable, which can be less comfortable for longer sits. The swing-away footrests are useful, but I do wish they locked more securely when moved aside, as they tend to swing back too easily. Overall, it’s a solid, practical chair that gives us peace of mind when taking her out. A few design tweaks could make it even better, but for the price and durability, we’re very happy with it.

Perfect
I love it! It's so easy to maneuver but it's definitely small. Can only fit me - maybe a small purse. Thanks!

Brakes do not work!
Hard smooth plastic wheel treads, not rubber treads, so impossible to set brakes. They just will not hold on the hard smooth wheel surface. I am returning because of this brake issue. On the plus side this 16" wheel chair is a perfect size for moving through interior doors. If it wasn't for the brakes and the hard plastic wheel tread I would give it a 5 star.
