Q & A
Q:Â Going to be using this on cobble stones–is this sturdy enough to hold up on this kind of pavement?
A:Â Our experience with unpaved terrain has been bad. Screws loosened, and needed retightening, and in one case replacing.
Q:Â My husband is 6’4″ tall and his right leg doesn’t bend much. What’s the distance between the end of the seat to the bottom of the foot rest?
A:Â As you can see in the product Photo, the foot rest is a tubular metal piece that Is attached to the front axle. It’s main purpose is to keep ones feet off of the floor. It is designed for people whose legs can fully bend at the knee. It does not have separate foot rests like a normal wheel chair. While it’s light weight is a real product feature, this chair is not meant for everyone.
Q:Â Will the airline store the wheelchair without the carrying bag?
A:Â Having worked in a major airport for 39 years, and done a bit of retirement travel, I can say that the airlines WILL store the wheelchair w/o the bag; most wheelchairs do not have one, and they also provide gate-to-gate check which is by far preferable to arguing at the counter anyway. Just go in chair to the door of the plane and they will almost grab it out of your hands and tag for immediate pick-up at your destination loading bridge!

My parents turned 75 and 71 this year. My brother and I decided to take them on a trip through some of Europe; the major challenge was that my mother is pretty much confined to a wheelchair since she has very bad knees. She cannot walk without something to lean on nor can she walk at a normal pace.
We purchased both this product and the similar appearing Karman Ultralight Travel Chair Frame Color: Champagne, Seat Width: 16″ (Narrow) in order to keep one in each car for transporting my elderly father.
