Drive Medical Silver Sport 1 Folding Transport Wheelchair - Lightweight Mobility Support - Full Armrests - Removable Swing-Away Footrests - Durable Steel Construction - Compact Folding Frame - Black

Got this so I would have it for a family member who was going to be visiting me. Wasn't sure what to expect, given the price, but I thought it would only be used on a limited basis. I was incredibly shocked. It is extremely well made and sturdy. It's not too heavy and easily folds, so it can be put in the back of a car. It's easy to use and has a smooth ride. Phenomenal deal for a very high quality.Item.

My daughter had surgery for peroneal tendon subluxation, and is unable to be weight bearing for a minimum of 6-8 weeks. If you've ever had to use crutches for an extended period of time, then you know of the pain and discomfort that comes with using them ALL day. Crutches really hurt for long distances, and are very slow. They also aren't always stable it the ground is wet, uneven, or limited space. Having this chair has allowed us to shop, go to the farmers market, go on walks, not have to worry about parking far away etc. This really is a great chair. It is very sturdy and comfortable. It does take up a fair amount of trunk space, but it fits in my Honda civic and is easy enough to get it in and out. The foot rests come off and on very easily. I like that my daughter can wheel herself in it, in addition to being pushed. She is tall (5'10, and about 160 lbs) and finds it to be very comfortable, easy to get in and out of, and not too narrow (of course she is young, flexible, has good upper arm strength and the use of one good leg). I can't accurately say how this would feel for someone with multiple mobility issues or who is confined to it for very long and extended periods of time, but I will say that she sat in it for a 3+ hours straight at a ballet and felt fine. For us, who will be using it temporarily, it has been well worth it. Renting a wheelchair for 6 weeks would have cost at least the same if not more than buying this wheelchair, and now we have it if we ever need it again. Her best friend's grandma will be having knee surgery soon and we will lend it to them. Also, depending on you injury, you can buy the other type of foot/leg rest that extends for this model, which is fantastic. We have been using this wheelchair as needed now for over a month, I can say it has definitely been worth it for us. AND, you could always donate it once you no longer need it which is a nice thing to do. It would have not cost you more than a short term rental would have, and you could help someone else in need who might not have otherwise been able to afford the expense of a rental for themselves. win win

Recently fractured my tibial plateau, was put in full metal leg brace from ankle to mid- thigh with no bend. Was told I could absolutely not put any weight on leg for 4-6 weeks. Tried using crutches and that was not working for me. Took a chance and ordered this chair, it was a God-sent. It’s easy to use on hard floors and carpet (takes a little more effort but not bad at all). Was assembled in less than 20 minutes with ease. Very sturdy and comfortable. I’m about 5’8, 215 pounds and it’s just the right size. Folds up easily for car travel and the breaks hold it very steady for getting in and out. Fits through all my standard doorways (bedroom and bathroom)and I can turn direction very easily. Am now confident I can follow doctor’s orders and keep the weight off my leg.

This is the 2nd wheelchair I've ordered from these folks. Great wheelchair and excellent quality. The assembly was minimal (just the foot rest parts). We are very pleased with the quality and price!!!

The chair is very good, sturdy, folds easily to put in trunk (it's not lightweight, though). My 90+ year-old MIL is fairly slight. But the strap mount on one of the footrests broke on the second and last (to-date) use. It's not a very important feature. I had to contact Drive to replace it, and they quickly sent a new footrest with a sturdier mount, which was a needless hassle. I hope the other one doesn't break. My MIL is tough- she has regained her strength and is back using her walker, thankfully. She'll need the chair again one day, hopefully very soon.

Used for transport from vehicle to doctors appointments. This chair is just what I needed. It's not heavy yet it is very sturdy. I'm 5'11" and weigh approximately 200 lbs. The chair fits me very comfortably and is very easy to roll using my frail arms. I highly recommend this wheelchair!

Perfect for our needs! Folds easily. Easy to maneuver both for person in and person pushing.

Heavy duty without being overly bulky and should fit in most mid size cars/ hatchbacks or larger. I have an Acura sedan which is a perfect fit in the trunk with the back seats down. Solidly built yet narrow enough to fit easily through doorways, with a simple collapsing & expanding style mode of operation for storage or use. Put your personal stickers or decals on the side so that it doesn’t get swept up into the local medical providers inventory, whose lack of adequate or available equipment was my motivation for buying this chair in the first place.

Muy conforme con la compra. Es cómoda y se puede plegar. Es más ligera que la primera que tuve, y más fácil de manejar.

This chair works great, my mother likes this chair because easy to operate

Muy buena silla, le gustó mucho a mi señor padre, y es resistente.

This is a good wheelchair . We ordered this because it was smaller width . Our house is an older house and this size would fit through our doorways

Excelente calidad precio
