Medline Basic Aluminum Transport Chair With 12 Inch Wheels

We still wanted to travel together but my wife couldn't stand up for long. With this chair we were able to go everywhere. As it folds compactly, we were able to take it on the airplane for our trip to Washington, DC. When we arrived we were able to put the chair into the trunk of a taxi. At the hotel, we used it in the dining rooms. When we traveled between the many museums, the large rear wheels allowed for the chair to be pushed along even on unpaved hard gravel surfaces. In addition, I want all to know that the beauty of the design and quality of the manufacture is first rate, and this comes from an engineer who can appreciate it! Very nice chair!

Does not have the wheel brakes on the rear wheels that the "rider" can engage to stop the chair and keep it from moving. These brakes were shown on the chair that accompanies the description. We are very disappointed, as my husband likes to have the independence to control his mobility in the chair in the house.
