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

This is a great transport chair. It is small--narrow--if you weigh much over 130 pounds, you'll need a larger chair. It is easy to assemble, turns on a dime, smooth rolling. easy to fold. You figure out the foot rests quickly. And price is great. Once you lock the wheels, it doesn't move. The locks/brakes are on the back wheels--not easy to operate by the person seated (but a plastic pipe might be your solution to this!) Not heavy and fits in a small car. If you have a small house, or narrow doorways, this chair is perfect.

Right from opening the box, you can tell this is quality. Well made and sturdy. I was very surprised at how light this wheelchair is. Perfect for anyone seeking mobility support. I love the foldable design, which makes stowing it in a car or truck a breeze. The wheels roll smoothly on different surface types and are narrow enough to fit through all doorways. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a quality wheelchair.

A great purchase! I bought this chair one month ago for an elderly relative in her 90s with dementia and hip issues. She had been borrowing a friend’s wheelchair for a while but, after an accidental fall, the friend suddenly needed her chair back. I admit being nervous about the purchase because I needed to make a quick decision. Normally, I would prefer to buy something like this in a brick and mortar store and take my time trying out models with my relative. However, my relative needed a wheelchair/transport chair asap. (There was no way she was getting out the house without a transport chair!) Plus, at $95, the price wasn’t bad. The detailed reviews on here were also very useful in determining which model to get. Thank you, fellow reviewers! This model is lighter than other wheelchairs and easy to load in a car. In addition, it has secure breaks, enabling us to safely transfer our relative from a chair into this transport chair and from the transport chair into the car. Previously, I was eying another model, the one with slightly larger back wheels, but negative reviews about the breaks scared me away. As mentioned by the other reviewers on here, this is a great chair to use in shopping malls, apartments, houses, and around the neighborhood outside. There is even a seatbelt to secure the person in the chair. Even though I bought the bigger 19’’ model, it easily fits through doorways in a small and older house. This being said, my relative is in her 90s and doesn’t use the chair all the time. She uses it mainly on outings on paved surfaces, which are infrequent due to her age and other medical issues. In the house, she normally uses a walker, but if she is having hip pain, she will use this transport chair. From this, I can see that chair provides a smooth ride and performs well on both carpeted and non-carpeted surfaces. I cannot personally rate the performance of the chair if used daily for several hours at a time and/or on rough terrain, but see that other reviewers have been happy with the chair’s performance in demanding situations such as vacations. Due to my relative’s dementia and mobility issues, she is unable to wheel herself around. Otherwise, I would have bought a full self-propelled wheelchair (the kind with large wheels that can be moved by the person sitting in it). This was another factor I took into consideration with my purchase. While other reviewers have noted that it’s possible to self-propel, I think this chair is best suited for those who prefer to be wheeled by another person. In terms of appearance, the chair has an attractive appearance with a seatbelt and detachable leg rests. It was packed well and came clean and without defects. A care manual was included. The e-version is available here: http://cdn.drivemedical.com/media/files/958/GoKartSV_hangtag.pdf. I don’t have Prime, but normal shipping took only 5 days.

Absolutely perfect! Light weight and well made! All I had to do was put the foot rest on both sides! It was a one two three fast!! The delivery was fast!! Very comfortable for my Mom!! Even the padded arm rest is made so nice!! Thank you again!

While there are lighter transport wheelchairs available, this steel one was the only one I found that was narrow enough to fit through our crowded hallways. Its weight, however, was not a problem, as the only time I've had to lift it was to place it in the trunk of a car. The chair came mostly assembled. The foot rests need to be attached, but I wanted to be able to remove them for storage in a car trunk, or move the chair in one very narrow place in the house, so the easy attachment or detachment of the footrests are a help rather than a hindrance. This chair rolls very smoothly and quietly, with the front wheels pivoting during turns. The handlebars fold down and the shair squeezes into a narrow configuration for easy loading into a car trunk. The two 'parking' brakes are easily operated by an assistant's feet. Rear wheels have a large nut that could scrape on objects if the chair collides with them. The nuts have a cover, but one of ours was missing. I notified the company and they promptly replaced the one with a package of two covers, at no charge. This particular transport wheelchair has worked very well for us, with the passenger stating it is very comfortable.

Nice wheelchair, very sturdy, small but good for doctors visit with tight door access, good for slim people, not recommended for big or overweight people.

Love this transport wheelchair! It's not actually a wheelchair so it's super lightweight. I'm 70 years old next month. Easy to lift and push my 15 year old granddaughter. She's 5'1", 115 lbs. Went to zoo and she was able to enjoy. Made the whole experience so easy and fun.

On the plus side, this chair is compact. It moves well and it's more lightweight than other ones we tried. The lightweight and size would make it ideal to transport easier. On the negative side, The brakes are in the back, which we knew from the description, however my adult daughter could not reach the brakes. Only person pushing can set the brakes. Additionally, there is no way for my daughter to maneuver this on her own as there are no wheels for her to do that with, which we didn't notice from photo. That's probably why it is lighter weight than other chairs. Sadly we are returning as it won't work for our needs

EXCELENTE SILLA, COMODA , BUEN TAMAÑO RESISTENTE, Y BUEN PRECIO

So glad I purchased this chair for my elderly mother for times when she needs more than a rollator. Easy to assemble. Folds up or down in two easy steps. The footrests hook on and must be removed each time you want to fold away the chair. Rolling action is smooth. Feels sturdy when pushing but is light enough to lift in and out of my car. Fits the trunk of my Honda Civic with room to spare (unlike some rollators). There are leverage "pedals" near the rear wheels to help get the chair over raised thresholds. The carton it came in had cut-out carrying holes which made it easier to get the 30-pound box home. Only drawbacks: a larger person might find the seat confining; there are no pockets built into the chair and no storage bag was included for the footrests; you have to bend down almost to the ground to manually engage the real-wheel brakes. But those are just minor issues. This chair is perfect for getting quickly from point A to B, and is very reasonably priced.

This wheelchair is ideal for the job it is designed for. Not too heavy to lift into the back of a standard hatchback. Easy to manouvre. A bit of a problem with the front wheels fouling the footrests when going in reverse. Why go in reverse? Pushing my aged father round the supermarket and needing to go back for a missed item and not being to turn round in the narrow aisles. Good value

Easy to put together. Bought for when I had to take my mother in law to appointments. The use of her walker when inside her home for short distance was alright, but not for anything more. Now I can wheel her out to the car, easy fold by lifting the handle loops so it squeezes together, pop off the foot rests and put into the back. No more worry of her getting to tired to make it or worse... falling! The sitting area is not overly large but works great for most I'd think. Check the sitting area for size in description. For my MIL, it is perfect. It isn't the lightest thing but I do manage on my own. Quality.

Simple, compact, neat and very strong.
