Elite Care Lightweight aluminium folding transit travel wheelchair with handbrakes - Weighs only 11kg ECTR01

La silla esta muy bien. Ligera y manejable. Aunque no me gustan las ruedas delanteras q son muy duras y he echado de menos un freno cuando dejas parada la silla en algún lado, sobre todo cuesta abajo... me pare en un escaparate y por poco me quedó sin madre!!!

Es ist ein guter einfacher Rollstuhl, für den Übergang, er ist schön leicht und lässt sich gut auf geraden Boden rollen. Dieser Rollstuhl passt sehr gut in den Kofferraum und er ist schnell und einfach zusammenklappbar

I purchased this to help my elderly Mother still get out and about and enjoy herself, as she is finding it harder and harder to walk more than a short distance now without severe pain/discomfit. I wanted something that was light, "portable" (as much as a wheelchair can be!) and yet still strong and robust. This was because it was not really just to be used as a "get you from the car to the hospital type wheelchair"; I really wanted a wheelchair that could be used for days out, and yet could be stored easily in the car. Well, I have to say that this wheelchair ticks all those boxes with aplomb! This simply could not be easier to use. The two sides push together to become much flatter for storage in the car (on the in the house) and has two sturdy fabric hand pulls on the seat which you use to pull it back out to full width when you need to use it. This does not take a lot of strength to do as everything moves quite easily.. The footrests (with their metal bar that you can see going up almost to the seat in the picture) simply slot over small bars (literally line up and then drop into place) and then swing over into place (clicking securely into place with a simple "finger release" bar to get them undone again). No nuts, bolts etc. All done in seconds. The black sturdy plastic footrest part itself can flip up (vertically) so you can easily get in and raise one foot into place at a time.They have sturdy fabric "ribbons" which the the user can place their feet into to feel more secure (but can easily get out of themselves if need be; there is no fastener/lock; it just makes you feel more secure and that your feet won't slip etcetera). To get the entire footrest bar off (for the car/storage) again you simply press the metal release bar with your thumb/fingers and you can then swing to the side and lift off the bars; fold the black plastic footrests up verticalls and you now have a vertical "flat packed" footrest for easy storage in the car etcetera. So, put simply: you can push and pull the main width of the chair by hand; the footrests simply pop on and off by hand, swing over and click into place and you're ready to go! The brakes have a "car hand brake" functionality (simply pull/push down on the entire brakes and they click reassuringly into place); I have to say I was surprised how well these seem to work. Even on a slope the wheelchair was going nowhere once the brakes were engaged. If you're moving the person on a hill, for example, you also have the brakes there that work like "bike brakes". All in all, I really don't think I could have hoped for an easier to use model and design. Just what you need for getting in and out of the car in a jiffy. Also, as I said earlier, I did not just want a "short trip" solution; I wanted a wheelchair that could be packed away easily in the car but also be up to the job of transporting my Mum around all day on days out. Thus far I have had no problems doing just that with this chair. It's actually even quite comfortable without an additional cushion. However, if you were doing longer journeys in one (like we do) I would still recommend one. Build quality seems fantastic and, for this price, unbelievable to be honest. I would not be disappointed with the build quality if it cost 3 times as much quite frankly. My Mother is a slim build and pushing this wheelchair (on a straight path anyway!) with her is barely any harder than walking by myself. Seriously. Fenetic Wellbeing themselves were fantastic. Turned up uber-quick and well packaged. Highly recommended!

This is the fourth wheelchair I've ordered on Amazon. The first lasted 2 years and lost one of the front wheels while I was out with my mom. Thankfully, there were kind friends and family that helped us out of the situation. Because of that experience, I was looking for a chair with more reliable wheels for outdoor use that could stand extended use around town. I did a lot of research and tried finding one that would be on the lighter side, but still sturdy. I tried out a few but one was too low to the ground and the other did not offer enough support for my mom to hold onto while trying to get into the chair. I ended up returning them. I was losing hope of finding a good chair so I waited a while on the next one and prayed on it. Thankfully, the Lord heard my prayers. My mom loved the vibrant blue of this chair and I love the sturdy wheels, the handbreaks, and how it isn't any heavier than the cheaper transport chair she was using before. It really is a good-looking chair and I am really happy with it. I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a chair for their loved one. 100% love it.

Questa sedia è ben costruita, i materiali sono leggeri e resistenti, si manovra facilmente entra in un ascensore tipico condominiale e si può mettere nel portabagagli di una qualsiasi utilitaria. Insomma la migliore che ho visto fino a questo momento, soldi ben spesi.
