Definitely buy this!!!!
I used this to wheel my mom around London England and all through Scotland. 3 flights, 4 trains, MANY subway rides. Cobblestone, cracked pavement, it was difficult on gravel, but did everything else with ease! Be careful of catching front wheels in a crack in the road, if you are going quickly it will be a problem. I sent and shared this link with 3 airline employees who were so impressed with the ease of wheeling, quick and easy fold ability, and light weight. We had a lot of suitcases, and the size allowed us to squeeze it into the rental car! For the passenger - it is really important to remind them to turn to the side to get out. The arms swing right up but it is a movement they aren’t used to if they have been in a traditional wheelchair. The footrest is one solid piece and they should NOT step on that to get out. Other reviews mentioned that the brakes are not gradual - that is accurate. BUT they are really strong. We had some steep hills to wheel up, and I was able to safely engage the brake to allow myself to rest. It is super easy to engage and disengage the brake. Another reviewer mentioned issues with folding and the front wheels getting caught. We were soooo careful about this after reading that review, just tilted it forward when closing. But the one time the front wheel did swing back, it wouldn’t even continue closing. So maybe they fixed the design? And it folded so quick, and was light enough to carry up and down many flights of stairs. Also- it is only an 18 inch seat (our other chair is 20) but with the way the arms are more open it wasn’t a problem. I am such a review reader and careful purchaser, I received no compensation for this review, and I would recommend this wheelchair to anyone - for travel or everyday use!

Did well on a cruise to Asia, but was not designed well for small bumps, use with caution.
Pros:-Lightweight given how rigid the frame is. Very sturdy.-Build quality is good.-Brakes need some adjusting, but will lock wheels very securely.-Rolls with ease on smooth surfaces. Turns relatively well.-Folds up fast with locks.-Travel bag looks fine after 3 international flights.-Comes fully built.-Very compact.Cons:-Front wheel gets caught up really easily on changes in elevation. Even a short 1/2" door threshold could cause the wheel chair to stop, and send the occupant forward. Always step on the rear to lift the front over bumps.-Not great wtih little gaps in the ground when turning. The front two wheels aren't firm or rigid enough to hold direction. It will jam.-Front suspension doesn't seem to do anything. If it absorbed shock it might help with the two issues above.-Pusher operated brakes are not mean to be progressive. Don't expect to use partial pressure for down slopes. The wheels will lock up quickly.

Amazing product!
I have never written a review before but this purchase was so amazing it prompted me to. I fell and shatter my tibia, tore a ligament and a dozen other things. My best friend and I had a 12 day Universal and Disney trip 6 weeks after my injury. I was still completely non-weight baring. We didn’t want to cancel. Rather than rent a big heavy wheelchair, I purchased this. What an amazing purchase. This wheelchair probably racked up over 100 miles plus on our trip. It was light weight, easy to maneuver in tight places, and folded up smaller than a stroller (so much so it fit in a compartment on the plane). I never want to be in a wheelchair again when I travel, but if I have to this is what I will use. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend. Thank you!

SUPER convenient!
This chair is lightweight, unfolds super easily and quickly, and even comes with a cup holder. It’s really easy to use and feels sturdy enough for me as a 200 pound person to sit on. It’s really been thoughtfully designed and the duffel bag is a nice touch. I feel that the straps on the duffel bag could’ve been more comfortable or longer but it is extremely hard to find a wheelchair that is compact and under 20 pounds WITH a carrying handle that makes it a breeze to travel with! It’s just like walking around with a suitcase or stroller! Got this as a christmas gift for my grandma who suffers from POTS and dysautonomia and this is convenient for her to take with her to the grocery store when she needs a quick place to sit (does not come with ribbon lol)

Brakes don't work, $340 transport chair is dangerous
HELP WISGING! No luck getting Wisging to communicate with me about transport chair's brake problem. This ergonomic model cost $340, features a molded plastic seat that truly is ergonomic, and handy, fold-up arm rests, BUT ITS BRAKES ARE TOTALLY UNRELIABLE. THEY DO NOT HOLD.Hubby would be happy with this chair provided we could learn how to tighten the 2 sets of brakes. One set is behind his neck. Each of the back legs of the chair has its own red lock. The latter constitute the biggest part of the problem.It's nearly impossible to hold the wobbly, ever-slipping chair, steady the car door, and help move hubby's foot as he pivots into the car. Let's end the athletic feats and get the brakes working here.WISGING, SEND ME SOME ADVICE, and I'll rewrite this review, giving you ALL FIVE STARS. Thank you.

Lightweight and Comfortable But...
My mother did not want a wheelchair, and this transport chair has solved that problem. The ease of folding and unfolding it is not complicated, although I did learn to be sure I put the arms back down before folding. The bigger wheels are better than the tinier wheels and can travel over rough cracked parking lots much easier the little ones would have. The wheels are sturdy. The seat is very comfortable and slightly cushioned, so she loves that. My only suggestion would be to make the foot attachment separate and fold to the side so a person with hip and leg pain can sit from the front and not have to sit from the side and try to swivel to the front. The front footrest folds up, but the latches stick up and pulling the footrest down after getting in hurts her when she has to raise her hips and feet. However, this is only because she has osteoporosis in her hips and spasms in her thigh. So otherwise, it is great.
