Reviewing manual wheelchairs is a little harder than electric wheelchairs or mobility scooters for the reason that there is not that much difference between them. Unless there is a design flaw or poor parts availability, there is not that much difference in the good quality chairs. Most standard chairs will have the same features of the other standard chairs. Same with the lightweights, etc.

What I will try to do, is point out any flaws as I see them, and any features that other brands do not have. I will also tell you if a wheelchair is suited to everyday use, or should only be used occasionally.

I will only write about chairs we have had experience with. Since we have handled or repaired most major brands in the years we have been in business, the list could get pretty long.

As always, no guessing or pushing one brand or model over another unless I see a flaw. I hope these reviews will help you make an informed decision.
