Pretty useful chair
This product has worked beautifully on my daughters! Strong, firm and she seems super comfortable. She still short on the leg rest and head rest so I had to temed them, but it may give it time for her to grow and still use the chair

Value vs cost.
Very expensive, but only moderately higher quality than the other models by the same manufacturer. The leg/foot rests do not come close enough together to prevent a dementia user from trapping legs.

An Excellent Wheekchair
This wheelchair is very well made and sturdy. My wife, who is immobile, spends many hours in that chair daily. She has never complained about being uncomfortable. The back easily reclines to any angle and can go all the way to horizontal if necessary. A seat cushion is essential, however. I do not recall if the cushion was included in the purchase. The only issue I have with it, is that it barely clears my doorways with very little room to spare.

The perfect chair for us.
My husband loves his new wheelchair. It's everything we hoped it would be. The seat is nice and wide so he doesn't feel cramped and has room for even the largest jacket or blanket when he needs them. The Recline feature helps a lot because he can't sit upright on his own and he doesn't feel like he's going to tumble out and he can rest his head back. I've also been able to take him to the theater again. The combination of recliner, adjustable foot rests and extended head rest allow him to enjoy things he hasn't been able to in comfort. He's had many compliments on his chair. For me, the chair has made transporting him much easier. The higher wheel locks are much more convenient to reach from the back without having to maneuver around the chair in tighter spaces like elevators. The chair collapses easily and still fits in the trunk of my car. I would definitely recommend this chair to anyone who has difficulty sitting up straight or holding their head up for extended periods.

The brakes.
Nice chair but for one thing that is a serious issue. When my mom sits in this chair, her arms extend out past the chair arms and rest on top of the parking brake handles. If she lifts herself up on her arms to change positions she bears down on the brake handles releasing the brakes. I tried to reposition the handles down to clear her arms but then the brakes can't be set. I'm sure that she's not the only one to have her arms out past the chair arms. We haven't thought much about this problem until now. What if we are on a slope and she drops something. I stop, set brakes and then turn around to retrieve the item. She pushes down to shift positions, releases the brakes and off she goes. This needs to be addressed now.

No Help From Company
A really nice wheelchair but the foot rests are too long for my wife. Chatted with a rep at Drive corporate, and he said he would collaborate with the team and get back to me. Of course he never did. I’m using leg rests from an old transport chair I have.

Sturdy and rolls very easily.
I was very happy with this chair - sturdy and rolls very easily. I have not tried reclining fully yet, but it is very comfortable to be able to angle the seat back somewhat. I find it a bit hard to use the brakes myself, as my hands are weak. It would be heavy to lift into a vehicle, but great that it is possible to fold a chair with so many added features.

Damaged left brake for recline.
I was looking forward to receiving this chair based on all the reviews. However once I received it I noticed the left side handle sticking out of the box . I unboxed it and put the head rest on, foot rest and the spreader bar. However when I worked the recline the left recline brake would not lock like the right side. So basically only the right side worked properly. This is very unsafe for any patient. The back left side drops on its own by the weight of the patient. It will cost a lot of money for return shipping due to the size and weight of the box, which I will have to pay for, would be nice if I could get reimbursed for return shipping also,as I did not ask for a defective product. I will do another review after the return is processed.

Unreliable BRAKES!
Initially i was happy with the purchase which was for my mother, but within a few months, we noticed even with the brakes on, the wheelchair moved which is very dangerous. We lock the wheelchair before transfer but can not trust the brakes anymore!
