Ramps For Wheelchairs: Drive Medical Fly-Weight Transport Chair, 17 Inch Review

Average Reviews:
4.4 out of 5 stars

(More customer reviews)This chair is very well built yet also is very light. I can easily lift it into the trunk of my car. The standard wheelchair that my mom used to use was always very difficult for me to lift.

The chair is also compact when open which makes for much easier maneuvering in public areas. The pocket on the back of the seat is convenient for putting my mom's parking pass in. It also velcros closed so I don't have to worry about anything falling out.

When folded, the chair is compact. You have the option of folding the feet into the sides and folding the handles down which makes it even tinier. Easy to store in my mother's little closet.

The brakes are a little inconvenient to use as you have to bend all the way down. Also, one of the brakes wasn't tightened as much as it could be. The tools they included with the chair don't fit the brakes' bolts so I have to use an allen wrench from my own toolset.

Overall, though, an excellent chair at an excellent price.
