5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Without Compromise

b. · 12 May 2025

I purchased this wheelchair for my Mum who has Osteoporosis and is unable to walk more than a few metres. As I have arthritis myself, I was looking for a chair that was lightweight, easy to manoeuvre and fold up to lift into the car boot.Having looked at many others I settled on this one because it looked uncomplicated and good quality as well as being very reasonably priced. Most of all it is from a small UK retailer which is important to me rather than all the cheap and tacky imports currently flooding the market.Unusual these days but it exceeded my expectations, I was absolutely thrilled with it and my Mum (who usually finds fault with everything ;-) ) even commented how comfortable it was, didn't even need any cushions. This, along with the excellent communications and speedy delivery in less than a day, means that I cannot recommend this wheelchair or the company it came from highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good value, suitable quality - but no seatbelt

Wanted a good value but reasonably robust wheelchair to take my 87 year old mother to medical appointments, shopping, or around the village; and this seemed to fill the bill. Ordered it on Friday morning and it was delivered (for free) on Monday lunchtime! Wow!Disappointments: Slightly dificult to open out the first time as it had got squashed together in transit, but really easy to fold and unfold now. One of the front tyres arrived slightly damaged, but hope it will be OK and not tear away ... will have to keep an eye on it. The biggest "fault" with the chair is that there is no seat belt - surprising in this health-and-safety conscious day and age. I recently took a 90 year old neighbour to hospital in her own wheelchair, and we struck an inch high kerb across the wheelchair route (!!!) - whereupon the wheelchair stopped abruptly but the occupant didn't. Oops! So we have bought a separate seatbelt for my mother's chair, which gives us both more confidence. The footrests seemed very unbalanced, but improved when my mother repositioned herself, as the wheelchair frame isn't rigid. (They are still slightly different heights, but she says no longer enough to bother her.)My mother was reluctant to get a wheelchair, but after being lent one for a recent hospital visit, decided one would be useful. We made our maiden voyage to meet friends at the local pub a day after the chair was delivered, and my mother found it comfortable enough even without additional cushion.Good points: not too heavy for lifting into the car; footrests are quick and easy to slot on / lift off; back folds in half so that the handles fold down and do not protrude too much and thus it is easy to fit into a car when folded. As I have a slight walking problem myself, I find foot brakes difficult to use, so particularly like the hand operated parking brakes on the wheelchair handles.It remains to be seen how well the chair will last, but for now it seems robust enough for our purposes. Great on flat hospital floors; adequate on a slightly uneven pavements​ - but I wouldn't want to use it on cobbled streets or country walks!I would have given four and a half stars if I could: four seemed mean in view of the chair's many good points, but five feels over-generous in view of the (mostly minor) shortcomings. Most serious gripe is the lack of a seatbelt.

Purchased this wheelchair so that a 90+ year old relative could come everywhere with us over the Christmas period. On advice from other reviewers I purchased a seat cushion, which made it a more comfortable ride for family walks along a pebbly promenade. The user also used it to support themselves and were able to walk short distances before getting back in the chair. It is easy to manoeuvre and if you push the brake handle down until it locks into place, it is secure for the person to get out with the assistance of the wheelchair pusher, as it’s not moving anywhere. The foot plates are easy to assemble and the handles just lift up and click into place, with a release button for collapsing. it is solid and great value for the price. I can see it getting a lot of use and I am so glad I purchased it.It fits in the boot of a Honda Jazz car.

Arm rest screws tend to come off , otherwise light, and very practical to stow in car and reassemble quickly.

La silla esta muy bien. Ligera y manejable. Aunque no me gustan las ruedas delanteras q son muy duras y he echado de menos un freno cuando dejas parada la silla en algún lado, sobre todo cuesta abajo... me pare en un escaparate y por poco me quedó sin madre!!!

gut Rollbar

Es ist ein guter einfacher Rollstuhl, für den Übergang, er ist schön leicht und lässt sich gut auf geraden Boden rollen.Dieser Rollstuhl passt sehr gut in den Kofferraum und er ist schnell und einfach zusammenklappbar

It is well-built, beautiful, and not very heavy.

This is the fourth wheelchair I've ordered on Bolo. The first lasted 2 years and lost one of the front wheels while I was out with my mom. Thankfully, there were kind friends and family that helped us out of the situation. Because of that experience, I was looking for a chair with more reliable wheels for outdoor use that could stand extended use around town. I did a lot of research and tried finding one that would be on the lighter side, but still sturdy. I tried out a few but one was too low to the ground and the other did not offer enough support for my mom to hold onto while trying to get into the chair. I ended up returning them. I was losing hope of finding a good chair so I waited a while on the next one and prayed on it. Thankfully, the Lord heard my prayers. My mom loved the vibrant blue of this chair and I love the sturdy wheels, the handbreaks, and how it isn't any heavier than the cheaper transport chair she was using before. It really is a good-looking chair and I am really happy with it. I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a chair for their loved one. 100% love it.

Leggera e resistente

Questa sedia è ben costruita, i materiali sono leggeri e resistenti, si manovra facilmente entra in un ascensore tipico condominiale e si può mettere nel portabagagli di una qualsiasi utilitaria.Insomma la migliore che ho visto fino a questo momento, soldi ben spesi.

très bien

livraison très rapide , nous l'avons reçu plus tôt que prévu . Niveau qualité et confort , c'est impeccable . nous l'avons acheté pour notre fils qui a des difficultés à marcher longtemps et il s'y sent très bien . le bémol , ce sont les roues avant qui sont en plastique et donc donnent des chocs à l'avant si le chemin n'est pas bien plat . Mais nous avons trouvé des roues pneumatiques pour les remplacer , on attend de les recevoir pour voir si ça fonctionne bien comme cela . très léger et facile à plier .
