Drive Medical Blue Streak Wheelchair with Flip Back Desk Arms, Swing Away Footrests, 18" Seat, bls18fbd-sf

Es cómoda, no es tan pesada y es fácil de manejar. Muy practica al momento de llevarla a otro lado y no es muy estorbosa.

It’s very sturdy and helped us enjoy our recent trip. Easy to use and easy to maneuver.

Excelente relacion calidad-precio, muy resistente y el rodar es muy suave, es claro que no es la mas ligera pero el aluminio es mas debil a la vez, asi que preferi durabilidad, la pintura es de excelente calidad igual

I broke my foot and couldn't get an appointment with the orthopedic clinic until more than a week after my accident. The ER gave me a worthless air splint which gave no support or protection. The crutches were a nightmare and I fell twice more the same day I broke my foot.For 2 days I tried to get around. I even used my rolling office chair in the house, but I couldn't take it to appointments. My foot was getting worse and I needed mobility. I am a very frequent Amazon shopper and noticed this wheelchair...The price couldn't be more reasonable for what you get. It came assembled, with the only attachment being the foot rests, which are very easy and takes seconds to put on and take off.* There is an Allen wrench that comes with it for any adjustments needed*I was thrilled to get into my new chair!! This is an amazing product! I am so glad I got it. It was very easy to maneuver. It went over the carpet easily. The front wheels constantly turn, so sometimes it won't go forward because the wheels are sideways, but it is easy to shift to get them going again.I love that the foot rests can swing to the side to get out of the chair easily. Another smart feature are the arm rests that can be flipped to the back for lower tables.I have narrow halls and doorways and this baby can turn on a dime once you learn to control it. It has really made a huge difference for me helping me to be mobile with minimal weight bearing on my broken foot.I took it for a small test run at the grocery store. My friend was able to fold the chair and place it in the car with no problems.*** It does weigh 40+ pounds. This is the only con and question it being "light weight" but I am sure other wheelchairs weigh far more***With that being said, she easily pushed me inside the store and then I took it from there.I don't have a lot of strength, since I never moved a wheelchair on my own, but I got around pretty well and kept up my friend and her shopping cart. :). It made a huge difference with so much more room to maneuver!! I was so happy to be mobile after breaking my foot and out of the house.I will say the chair is low and I am 5'5" so the mid height shelves weren't accessible. I also can't reach my sinks and the fridge is tricky. But I can do so much more than trying to balance on my foot.I have seen the orthopedic clinic and now have an aircast. This sucker is heavy and hard to walk with. My blue streak continues to save the day. I go to my medical appointments muc easier. I couldn't even imagine trying to hobble to the car, drive, hobble across the parking lot and walk all over the building, just to do it again when I left!!I get medical transport. They pick me up. Fold my chair and off we go. Sometimes I push myself and sometimes I get assistance, with the blue streak both is easily possible.I will say if you sit for long periods, get a nice cushion, because the chair material is like a director's chair. This is what makes it possible to fold up and travel easily. It also has a nice Velcro pouch in back to carry your papers or other things. All the levers for the brakes and foot rests and arm rest as very easy to work; there is no force necessary.I cannot say enough about this chair! I would recommend it to anyone and I have! I would say if you need a versatile, affordable, well made wheelchair, that is portable and easy to use - you cannot go wrong with the blue streak! I thank God I got this wheelchair!! Thank you Amazon and Drive Medical for making this injury and the struggles that I am going through because of it, easier on me. It is worth every penny!!

It was a breeze to set up since it comes almost totally assembled out of the box. It seems solid and is easy to maneuver around the house. A good deal for the price!
