Hopelight Lightweight Transport Portable Folding Wheelchair, Ultra-Light Wheelchair (Only 14lbs) with Telescopic Handle & Travel Bag & Cupholder for Adults Seniors Kids,Support 220lbs

Ordered this for my 86 year old mother and it has been a life saver. It is so easy to use and very lightweight. It folds up in just a minute or less and the nice this is its not really big or heavy you can pull it like a suitcase. I sometimes put it in a shopping cart when she feels like walking and if she becomes tired just take it out of the cart and pop it open and she can sit. The chair folds down nicely and fits into the trunk with no issues. The durability is good and it was very simple to set up only a few little items you have to complete to use the chair opening and closing is very easy. I would recommend this to other customers especially if you want a light weight chair and easy to take with you.

La compré para un viaje de 25 días, buena opción por ser plegable y su peso. La utilicé en terracería y aguantó, recomiendo leer el instructivo y tener en cuenta que puede ser un poco inestable en terrenos no planos. Excelente acabado y materiales, se nota la diferencia respecto a otras sillas similares.

Pros: -Lightweight given how rigid the frame is. Very sturdy. -Build quality is good. -Brakes need some adjusting, but will lock wheels very securely. -Rolls with ease on smooth surfaces. Turns relatively well. -Folds up fast with locks. -Travel bag looks fine after 3 international flights. -Comes fully built. -Very compact. Cons: -Front wheel gets caught up really easily on changes in elevation. Even a short 1/2" door threshold could cause the wheel chair to stop, and send the occupant forward. Always step on the rear to lift the front over bumps. -Not great wtih little gaps in the ground when turning. The front two wheels aren't firm or rigid enough to hold direction. It will jam. -Front suspension doesn't seem to do anything. If it absorbed shock it might help with the two issues above. -Pusher operated brakes are not mean to be progressive. Don't expect to use partial pressure for down slopes. The wheels will lock up quickly.

This transport chair has been a life saver! It's perfect for use around the house because of its slim and ergonomic design. It is also light weight and can easily be lifted with one hand. It even folds down for easy storage, has a pop up handle for transporting, and has a builtninnstand so the chair doesnt fall over when folded down. The chair came assembled and with operation instructions. I did notice that the instructions I received were not for the chair that I received. I tested the chair when I first got it and I must say it is very comfortable and easy to maneuver. This chair has also proved to be extremely durable seeing as I use it daily and have been using it everyday for the past 6 months. It's been very helpful having this device to help me care for my aging parent.

I used this to wheel my mom around London England and all through Scotland. 3 flights, 4 trains, MANY subway rides. Cobblestone, cracked pavement, it was difficult on gravel, but did everything else with ease! Be careful of catching front wheels in a crack in the road, if you are going quickly it will be a problem. I sent and shared this link with 3 airline employees who were so impressed with the ease of wheeling, quick and easy fold ability, and light weight. We had a lot of suitcases, and the size allowed us to squeeze it into the rental car! For the passenger - it is really important to remind them to turn to the side to get out. The arms swing right up but it is a movement they aren’t used to if they have been in a traditional wheelchair. The footrest is one solid piece and they should NOT step on that to get out. Other reviews mentioned that the brakes are not gradual - that is accurate. BUT they are really strong. We had some steep hills to wheel up, and I was able to safely engage the brake to allow myself to rest. It is super easy to engage and disengage the brake. Another reviewer mentioned issues with folding and the front wheels getting caught. We were soooo careful about this after reading that review, just tilted it forward when closing. But the one time the front wheel did swing back, it wouldn’t even continue closing. So maybe they fixed the design? And it folded so quick, and was light enough to carry up and down many flights of stairs. Also- it is only an 18 inch seat (our other chair is 20) but with the way the arms are more open it wasn’t a problem. I am such a review reader and careful purchaser, I received no compensation for this review, and I would recommend this wheelchair to anyone - for travel or everyday use!
