Tracer Sx5 16x16 With Desk Arm Review

I ordered this chair because Medicare was going to pay a local medical supply house $1600 for a similar, but less quality chair for my grandfather. I bit the proverbial bullet and bought our own instead of hitting the Medicare tab with a high dollar item in fears of creeping towards a high tab on the year. Originally the item shipped was the "wide load" version, which was not stated, so we returned it for the normal size. In a house where there is no handicapped access, this chair was great. The wheelbase even allowed turning it, of course with the foot pads swung aside and folded, in a non handi bathroom. The durability of this chair was great and my grandfather was only bothered by comfort after 4+ hours in it. If it was something I had to do again, I would buy the comfort pad to sit on just because there was no suspension in the seat. I went for this chair over a transport chair because of the stability with the large wheel and I had zero complaints while it was used. The folding was a snap and the weight was great for lifting in and out of a trunk or even over the side of a pickup bed.

We bought this chair to use for transporting my 94 year old aunt to church and doctor appointment and the like. It is soooo much lighter than her previous chair! We no longer feel like our backs are going to break lifting her chair in and out of the back of the car (we have a Blazer and so have to lift a chair pretty high up to get it loaded). We have found the chair to be easy to use. It is very maneuverable. My aunt, who can be kind of picky to say the least, loves it. She especially likes it when she gets a compliment about her pretty red chair!

We recently required assistance for my husband to be out and about - this chair was recommended and we definitely are not sorry. I am an elderly (76 yrs) 5'3, 110 lbs and am able to load and unload this chair with ease into the backseat area of our vehicle. It is easy to maneuver and the gel cushion I purchased with it makes it very comfortable ride. We did not realize Amazon sells this chair so purchased from another store but if anyone is looking at Amazon to purchase I recommend this chair highly.

Drive Medical Economy Transport Chair, Blue Review

Drive Medical Economy Transport Chair, Blue
Average Reviews:

I purchased this chair to transport my mother to medical appointments and other places. I have been very pleased with it. We have been using it for several months now and it is sturdy and seems like it will hold up for many years to come. It is very easy to push and steer for the person doing the pushing. The handlebars have a nice feel to them and are at a good height. My Mom tells me it has a very comfortable seat for the passenger, as well. It is ready to go right out of the box. All you have to do is pull it apart to open the seat, flip up the handlebars, and attach the footrests (no tools are required). It folds up fairly compactly when the handlebars are flipped down. The folded chair just fits in my car's trunk. It might not fit into a small car trunk but you should be able to set it in the backseat if that is a problem. It does weigh about 30 pounds so consider this if you have to lift it up into a trunk. My Mom and I are very happy with and glad we bought this - it is nice to not have to depend on a chair being available at your destination!

Quickie Backpack Review

Fits perfectly on the back of my husband's wheelchair and has lots of space with zippered pockets and a coushioned section. He wanted it for his camera and camera case (I didn't think it would fit just looking at the picture). Fits perfect with lots of space left over. Easily removed and slung over the shoulder if you have to fold up chair for storage while traveling.

Drive Medical FW19SL Fly-Weight Transport Chair, 19 Inch, Silver Review

Drive Medical FW19SL Fly-Weight Transport Chair, 19 Inch, Silver
Average Reviews:

I had this chair shipped to a nearby US Parcel Handing facility and drove about 40 miles to pick it up. With all considered, my total cost was much less than a similar and heavier low quality chair sold up here in Canada. This chair is very well made. The quality of the chair is excellent, and the price even better. I am taking it on a criuse and I'm sure it will live up to my expectations. My only complaint was not with the chair itself, but the photo on Amazon which erroneously implies bigger wheels on the back than on the front. This chair has 8 inch wheels all around. I have no regrets buying this product and would recommend it.

Duro-Med Lightweight Transport Chair with Brakes, 12" Wheels Review

Duro-Med Lightweight Transport Chair with Brakes, 12 Wheels
Average Reviews:

The handles are poorly designed. They unfasten, but only drop down a few degrees, so the unfasten feature is of no use. A metal rod inside one of the handles broke when I was lifting the chair over a curb. I was very luckly my wife was not injured.
The reason I purchased this chair was because of the larger rear wheel. That part of the chair worked very well as comparied to chairs with smaller rear wheels on uneven surfaces.

Lumex Hybrid Rollator Transport Chair Review

Lumex Hybrid Rollator Transport Chair
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Nice sturdy walker without a lot of weight. I purchased this for my handicapped son that can walk limited distances and then needs to sit. The seat is quite wide as is the whole walker. A little narrower would be nice. It is 2" wider than our other walker with a seat. This model does go up to 300 pounds which is why it is wider but a junior size would be great.I have had trouble in the stores maneuvering through isles. The handles adjust to almost any height easily. I bought it for the footrests that fold out of the way while walking with it. My complaint is the footrests need to be picked up to swing back out of the way for storage. For a person to pick them up slightly and move them forward you need to bend over or sit down and try to maneuver them into place and I need my glasses to hit the slots properly. The wheelchair footrests just swings forward on the pins without lifting them. A minor problem but it is something to consider for independence of the user.
The only other modification is I need to add a safety belt to keep him on the seat better.
Overall I like this walker a lot and seems to be high quality and is what I need for my son. I am recommending it to my friends.

i was unable to contact the seller after trying for 3 weeks. nothing but an answering machine. finally contacted the mfg but they were unable to supply any other wheels. the smaller wheels on the front of this chair are solid rubber & they smell much worse than new rubber does! about 3 times worse! i don't know why, but the odor is very strong & has not faded. i've had the chair for a couple of months & it's still on my backporch because i can't tolerate the stink in my home. the chair is nice but those front wheels have to go!

NOVA 329 Lightweight Transport Chair, 19" Review

NOVA 329 Lightweight Transport Chair, 19
Average Reviews:

After having bilateral foot surgery, this chair made it very easy to move about the house. I used my heels to scoot around and, when in the hallway, just pushed off from the door jambs. I could easily reach the rear wheel locks, so it would not roll away when I needed to transfer. It stayed at the bedside at night & was easy to transfer into & out of. It was easy to fold and fit into everyone's vehicles, who were kind enough to take me places. I highly recommend this chair. The only negative is that there was no warranty - thankfully, I did not need one.

Product arrived OK but the shipping carton was all torn and beaten up.
The cardboard used by the Chinese manufacturer was far too flimsy for
the weight of this wheelchair. The brakes needed some adjustment which
I was able to do and now the product works fine. My suggestion would be
to notify the manufacturer to use better packaging with heavy cardboard.
Also, to employ stricter quality control procedures in their shipping
department.

Aluminum Transport Wheel Chair with 12" Rear Wheels Color: Blue Review

Aluminum Transport Wheel Chair with 12 Rear Wheels Color: Blue
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My father already has an Invacare rollator walker & I liked its sturdy quality. I read reviews/comparisons on this transport chair & was convinced would be best choice. I wasn't disappointed; it's sturdy yet lightweight (19.5 lbs). I have back problems but this chair is light enough for me to pick up & store either in the back seat or trunk of my Toyota Corolla. The 12" rear wheels does make it easier to maneuver. As for the issue with the foot rests swaying about once the chair is closed/folded, I used a short bungi cord thru the chair to hold them in place & that solved the problem. It was a great investment for the money & CSN Stores provided the best price. What I like about them, is they under promise & over deliver. Ordered the chair on a Sunday & received it (in great shape) by Wednesday; I didn't expect delivery for a week. I highly recommend both the chair & the vendor!

The transport chair was like the picture, but that was all. The chair did not collapse like an umbrella. It weighed well over 15 pounds. And it did not go in a tote bag like in the picture. The bag was fairly large and round, and would never fit in the overhead of an airplane. Nor would my mom be able to sling it over her shoulder. The chair itself is ok and collapses like a folding chair instead of sideways like a wheelchair. But carrying won't be as easy as it shows in the picture.

Thank you for a fully assembled wheel chair. The thought of having to assemble one on my own was overwhelming. It was so nice to be able to take the chair out of the box and be on my way. The wheelchair is light weight, easy to transport and very comfortable to be in - even for long period of times.
