NovaMedical Products Lightweight Transport Chair - 19" with Swing Away Footrest - Black

Excellent product... sturdy, yet light weight. Very helpful for transporting person and storage in car trunk.

This chair was purchased for my 92-year-old mother and it is great! Lightweight, easy to collapse and compact for fitting in the truck of my sisters' vehicles. The chair is comfortable without needing a cushion and is easy to maneuver. The only downside is the foot rests swing around when trying to put the collapsed chair into the trunk. I still gave it five stars because it was easy to fix the issue with an inexpensive bungee cord.

I purchased one of these to help with my mother when she has appointments or needs to get out. This is much easier than loading a regular wheelchair in and out of a car. This also folds up so small it can go into any vehicle. The legs come off easily and the back even folds down. Lightweight, folds easily, and so convenient. I would definitely recommend one of those for anyone who needs a wheelchair for appointments and errands. However, these do need to be pushed by someone. They cannot be "wheeled" by the occupant like a wheelchair.

I bought this wheelchair for my mom. She suffered a stroke a few years ago and can walk but very slowly and gets tired after a while. It's very easy to fold and unfold, fits right in the trunk and is easy to lift (I am a weakling and I can get it in and out of the trunk with no problem). It feels sturdy and well-made, and has straps on the footrests to help keep her feet in place. We have used it at the mall, doctor's offices, restaurants, bumpy parking lots and such with no problems at all It's making a huge difference in my mom's quality of life, as she is better able to go places and do things with us. I highly recommend it!

I bought this chair to use in the house. I have restricted use of my legs, and have fallen a couple of times. I've used a rolator for a few years, but leg deterioration has made this less practical. I can move the transport chair around with my feet, and it seems much more secure than the rolator. I don't use the foot rests, and won't so long as I can manage to move myself with my legs. Our home has narrow halls and doors, but the chair seems able to navigate the turns well. There are three problems with the device as I am using it. The first is that the arms are quite high, so I find myself further away from tables than I would like. The second is that the brakes tend to slip due to the geometry of the brake mechanism. The third is that the tires are very narrow so they tend to sink into a soft carpet and make the chair difficult to move.I have added a set of cushions made for a rocking chair; they appear to solve the first problem adequately. They also make it easier for me to navigate. I am able to adjust the brakes using the supplied wrench so that the position of the chair is stable; however, this requires using more force to set and release them than some people might find acceptable (note that this brake mechanism is used on almost all transport chairs). We are planning to replace the bedroom carpeting with vinyl planks to solve the third problem.All in all, I'm pleased with the chair. It isn't perfect, but it serves its purpose well enough.

As advertised, this chair is lightweight and has been the most helpful thing I've purchased for my mom who is nearly 90. She is quite small and doesn't get lost in this chair like she does in the huge wheelchairs at the hospital. I'm not that strong and I never thought I'd find a chair that would fit in the trunk of my sports car. This not only fits, but is easy to fold and lift in and out of the trunk. I can take her to doctors' offices and shopping with ease and sometimes use it in the house when she is feeling weak. I first saw this chair at a local medical supply and it was priced over $100 more than Amazon's price. With Amazon prime, I got it in a couple of days and the shipping was free.

I am glad of our purchase. Husband will be using it, with me pushing him. It is light weight.

This chair is perfect for my husband's needs. It folds easily and fits behind the passenger seat of my Ford Escape. It is sturdy, easy to push and easy to keep clean. The brakes are sound and furthermore, the chair is cute. I would caution a buyer that it is for small to medium sized patients. I would say that anybody over 200 lbs would be a snug fit

As described. Light weight and easy to maneuver. Good value for money

Great Product. Performs exactly as described. I was impressed with the quick delivery, set up in seconds. The relative I purchased this for is able to get around the house with a walker but any distance is difficult. She is thrilled at now being able to shop and go to the mall. Well made sturdy equipment at a great price. Even fits into my small hatchback with room to spare. Thank You.

Easy to pack and unpack from the car. Light and comfortable. But still have to be carefull while riding it. Wheels can getstuck sometimes.

Light weight but once someone sit on it , it became very difficult to negotiate over any tiny bumps.

Light to lift, nice looking and comfortable to sit in. I also liked the fact that there was little/no assembly required.
