Review: I like this! - Really nice product! my husband is 6'2 and it works fine for him. Wish the legs extended a little longer because he had a ankle replacement but, it works fine, going through doorways. Great height, great for the price. Very sturdy and pretty lightweight to lift in the car and I'm a woman not used to lifting much.
Review: Overall good but not the version I ordered. - Everything is mostly identical except the elevating leg rests did not have the push in snap pin system for extending the leg length as shown in the ad image. The version we got was a black pipe (not silver) fitted inside the blue one and you have to loosen a bolt and pull the footrest part out then re-tighten the bolt back in place. It makes the version we got harder to adjust and the black pipe could stand to be a bit longer for longer legged people who need to elevate their legs. The box was beat up to all hell, but the chair was otherwise in new condition minus a few loose bolts that had to be tightened. The "drive" stickers that were placed on the outer sides of the thin plastic armrest panels were peeling off (curling away from the plastic) which was fine I just took them off and tossed them. One of the elevating leg rests didn't want to go back down because the bolt was somewhat loose, which caused the bar to stay extended and the lever couldn't be pushed to get the mechanism to release. Thankfully loosening the bolt more made it so we could get the mechanism to unlock, push the leg back down in place and tighten the end bolt back in place. Otherwise it is exactly as ordered, funnily enough the item was ordered from home depot, as there was an invoice slip on the box. Had I known that home depot had these I would have ordered directly from them. Initially I placed an order from desertcart and it was to be shipped from desertcart directly and was cheaper but there was no shipping date. I called after 2 days of not having a shipping date to ask about the shipping as we needed the chair quickly. after speaking with a csr i was told I would hear something about the shipping in 48 hours. The next day I went to check on it and found the order had been canceled with no notice no reason nothing. This was the 20 inch one we ordered and there were no other quick options so after getting frustrated after talking with another csr who was not able to help me get it reordered from desertcart and give me a date for arrival, I reordered on my own and chose the other shipper and paid 40 bucks more plus paid for shipping etc. it was a nightmare process and took over a week to get in addition to the 3 days of dealing with desertcart. I am only adding the shipping info for others in case another family / person needs a chair in a hurry so you'll be aware of what we went through. It seems like a very sturdy chair and everything else was perfect, we only just got it so I'll give it a while and add to my review once we see how well it does for us. Overall I have faith in the drive brand, a bit frustrated by the difference in the elevating leg rests and the not quite long enough bar for the footrests when the legs are fully raised, but we can work around that. Otherwise I think it'll do us fine. Its a bit clunky and heavy for me I'm 4'10 so when I have to lift it into my truck for use in getting my Dad to his doctors it will be a momentary issue but I think considering what it does, how it is made, the ease of moving the parts, it'll likely do us fine. One thing to mention is that the armrest release is just a piece of plastic. I can see how long term that might prove to be annoying if someone moves those armrests a lot that thin piece of plastic won't likely last a long time or will wear down over time. ** Update Aug 2023 The chair was working well for us, Dad doesn't use it often due to his doing better, but it is very helpful for when he has to go long distances, or needs to have a seat anywhere we go if he gets tired. However, somehow on one use, a super tiny clip that held one of the leg rests together disappeared. I suspect from moving the chair and rests to and from the truck. I called Drive directly, and they sent us 2 brand new leg rests free of charge. I was grateful because that tiny little thin metal clip held the whole dang thing together and I was using electrical tape to hold it together but that made it's use much more difficult. I am SO totally impressed with Drive Medical for sending the free pair of leg replacements, they were caring, wanted to know what model it was for future chair updates and got me a new set of leg rests within 3 days. I'm updating my review from 4 stars to 5, their customer service was amazing and the new set of leg rests were also the type I had originally ordered with the push button adjustments, so that makes me very happy. I can't say enough good things about Drive after this experience, the man I spoke with was just amazing.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: There's no way this chair weighs 7.6 lbs.  Does anyone know the actual weight of the chair?**
A: For those of you clearly unaware. This is classified as lightweight because it weighs under 50 lbs. When it comes to shipping & transporting 50lbs is the cutoff between a 2man vs 1 man lift.

**Q: Chair will no longer fold. Has anyone had this problem and how did you remedy it?**
A: I have experienced the problem,  For me, it was because the chair was folded so tight the two axle bolts interlockied when the wheel bolts overlapped in the folded position; the threads on the bolts interlocked and made it nearly impossible to pull apart.  You have to push the wheels apart to separate the bolts.  Heavy tape or rubber/synthetic bolt covers prevent this from happening.

**Q: I am a big girl. 250lbs. must use wheelchair for shopping, site seeing ie: zoo, parks, etc. will this chair hold me comfortably or break**
A: I’m 265-270 pounds and it seems to be holding me. Just purchased yesterday.

**Q: Why can’t this item be shipped to Hawaii?**
A: I send my brother things to the big island and it just has to go to the nearest post office/ mail service location closest to you that Amazon will allow,  try adding the different addresses (talk to the post office and make sure they do pick ups, I have a lot of addresses in my Amazon because of this kinda thing). My brother's wife has to drive to pick up a lot of different things though some items agree to send to their address,  it never delivers to them it just stops at whatever is closest when I do it that way then they sometimes drive further. Hawaii deliveries can be weird like that.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Handles going up is a game changer!
*by A***A on June 25, 2025*

Wheelchair is everything i expected and more. I love the way the handles go up so it's easier to transfer from chair to car, or couch, bed etc etc. I also like how easy it is to fold up and put into the trunk of my sedan. The one thing that I'd like to bring to the attention to future buyers is that the breaks are really hard to set the first few times around, it gets easier as time goes by, however it brings a sense of security, knowing that the wheel chair is not going anywhere. This wheel chair is sturdy and worth every penny. The blue color is a nice touch too. All you will need from there is a nice comfy cushion. Ease of assembly: Depends on your experience building stuff, for me it was easy. Sturdiness: It's real sturdy Storage capacity: It folds easily Quality: Great quality Safety: Great
