Review: Great price and quality - This is an easy chair to use in house and for transport not big and heavy like other wheelchairs
Review: Lightweight and dependable transport chair - A great purchase! I bought this chair one month ago for an elderly relative in her 90s with dementia and hip issues. She had been borrowing a friend’s wheelchair for a while but, after an accidental fall, the friend suddenly needed her chair back. I admit being nervous about the purchase because I needed to make a quick decision. Normally, I would prefer to buy something like this in a brick and mortar store and take my time trying out models with my relative. However, my relative needed a wheelchair/transport chair asap. (There was no way she was getting out the house without a transport chair!) Plus, at $95, the price wasn’t bad. The detailed reviews on here were also very useful in determining which model to get. Thank you, fellow reviewers! This model is lighter than other wheelchairs and easy to load in a car. In addition, it has secure breaks, enabling us to safely transfer our relative from a chair into this transport chair and from the transport chair into the car. Previously, I was eying another model, the one with slightly larger back wheels, but negative reviews about the breaks scared me away. As mentioned by the other reviewers on here, this is a great chair to use in shopping malls, apartments, houses, and around the neighborhood outside. There is even a seatbelt to secure the person in the chair. Even though I bought the bigger 19’’ model, it easily fits through doorways in a small and older house. This being said, my relative is in her 90s and doesn’t use the chair all the time. She uses it mainly on outings on paved surfaces, which are infrequent due to her age and other medical issues. In the house, she normally uses a walker, but if she is having hip pain, she will use this transport chair. From this, I can see that chair provides a smooth ride and performs well on both carpeted and non-carpeted surfaces. I cannot personally rate the performance of the chair if used daily for several hours at a time and/or on rough terrain, but see that other reviewers have been happy with the chair’s performance in demanding situations such as vacations. Due to my relative’s dementia and mobility issues, she is unable to wheel herself around. Otherwise, I would have bought a full self-propelled wheelchair (the kind with large wheels that can be moved by the person sitting in it). This was another factor I took into consideration with my purchase. While other reviewers have noted that it’s possible to self-propel, I think this chair is best suited for those who prefer to be wheeled by another person. In terms of appearance, the chair has an attractive appearance with a seatbelt and detachable leg rests. It was packed well and came clean and without defects. A care manual was included. The e-version is available here: http://cdn.drivemedical.com/media/files/958/GoKartSV_hangtag.pdf. I don’t have Prime, but normal shipping took only 5 days.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light and easy
*by Z***P on August 13, 2025*

Excellent product, I got this for my mom to take her to dr appointments, and it is very light and does the job. My mom is 5 foot 3 and 140 pounds and she fits in it fine. It’s small but for her it works. She had another wheelchair but it was too heavy for me to lift and take it out of my trunk. I am 145 pounds and it is easy for me to get it out of my car. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a small, lightweight wheelchair. Excellent quality, we only had to put the foot pedals and that is it.
