Drive Medical Blue Streak Wheelchair with Flip Back Detachable Desk Arms and Swing-away Foot Rest, Blue, 18" Reviews
48 of 48 people found the following review helpful Lightweight, easy to use, lots of features, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Drive Medical Blue Streak Wheelchair with Flip Back Detachable Desk Arms and Swing-away Foot Rest, Blue, 18" (Health and Beauty) Drive WheelchairI purchased this wheelchair not knowing it would fold together, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it did. You simply lift it up by the canvas seating pad and everything collapses. The leg rests also fold aside very easily and the armrests fold up and out of the way so you can slide onto your bed. I tested the maneuverability and it fits into narrow passages and doorways (even ones found in homes that were made in the 1950s). Turning, moving forward, and backwards takes some getting used to if you haven't used a wheelchair. The controls are similar to that of a tracked vehicle in that you control turning and movement via the individual wheels. Or you can have someone just push you around. The wheelchair wasn't very heavy for me, I could lift it around without any difficulty. The shipping was extremely fast and kudos to Amazon for the excellent service. I tried ordering a wheelchair via a medical supply store and they gave me the run around for well... Read more 27 of 27 people found the following review helpful GREAT product, but BEWARE!! Way heavier!, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Drive Medical Blue Streak Wheelchair with Flip Back Detachable Desk Arms and Swing-away Foot Rest, Blue, 18" (Health and Beauty) This wheelchair is wonderful. The quality was great, and we thought it would be much less 'heavy duty' because of the price. It rolls really easy. However, it weighs over 4o lbs. Check the Drive website and it will tell you the true weight of the wheelchair. If you are looking for a lightweight product, this is the same as other wheelchairs. It's still a very nice product though! 18 of 18 people found the following review helpful Great for the money, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Drive Medical Blue Streak Wheelchair with Flip Back Detachable Desk Arms and Swing-away Foot Rest, Blue, 18" (Health and Beauty) OK to start with this is not a "light weight chair".Right out of the box it's ready to go, just add footrests. I've been in a wheelchair for near 20 years and about tried them all, from super lightweights to what I call dinosaurs, you know the ones you commonly see in most hospitals. This chair is what you might call upgraded from that. It feels sturdy, good locking breaks, rolls with ease, the push, or rear tires have a rough type finish painted on, for grip that's good, but for fast rolls down ramps, or down hill, could leave a slight burn in your hand, so gloves recommended for that. All in all, for the price, you can't go wrong. Recommended, if you need a chair and tight on money, hey it looks nice too. Thanks Amazon, you pulled through yet again! |
