- Hi all! I got this chair from amazon:
www.amazon.com...
In this video, I take it out of the box and set it up! If you have any questions, please let me know in the comments and I'll try my best to answer them! If you post inappropriate comments, you'll get removed.
If you're wondering why I need a wheelchair, I have several chronic conditions including POTS and chronic joint pain, and this chair is for occasional use only for when I know I will need to walk long distances or be out and about for a long time.
I got this wheelchair for my physical disability, and it is a great chair! Thank you for sharing how to set it up.
Please do not hate on him because he can walk and got a wheelchair. He could have a disability that you don't know about.
Do the wheels remove on this chair?
I am considering getting this for my 70yo mom, and it's in my price range. You did well showcasing the appearance of the chair and its features. I liked the music too. Thank you for sharing. Good luck with your conditions.
my dad bought my mom a wheelchair like that and my mom loves it. my job also has a wheelchair like that too for associates who get injured and/or get sick. i sat in it at work a couple times and it feels comfortable.
Thank you so much for this video! I just bought this chair for my mom and struggled getting it in the house. That's awesome it's practically fully assembled❤
My normal wheelchairs are high end, ultra lightweight chairs made by TiLite. But, I use this same exact chair inside my home for every day use inside my home. You can't beat the chair for $100.
Thank you Josh!,! Mine just came today. Came here to look for leg rest installation …you filled my knowledge bucket, thanks bud!!
I’m going to get one for my weak legs because I always twist my ankle and I’m very weak so thanks for this info to reach us how to unbox it 😊
Thank you for sharing. I know nothing about wheelchairs. I am unable to stand very long or walk for long distances and decided to try a wheelchair.
rad looking wheelchair, I think its time to splurge on some stickers. Miss ya drub
very well done and helpful video!
Thank you for making this, I was wondering if I was going to have to wait for a good day to build it or if it would be easy enough on a moderate day. Looks easy. Did it come with the cushion ?
Amber Hyde I just bought this exact one myself. From what **I** got from the description of the product (off Amazon's description) it does not come with the cushion.
Skyler W yeah I think so to. I just bought a special pillow just incase
@@amberhyde240 it does not come with the cushion! I bought a gel one from amazon. Also, it is very easy to assemble! It didn't take much effort for me at all.
Thank you for this video, I just purchased with mine today. I have Multiple Sclerosis and this will help when I’m out
You didn't show the flip back armrests!👎Does it have them? UpLyft self-transfer, and gait belt (sometimes) requires armrests to be out of the way
Brand new and unboxing but I can't get the wheels to unlock.
What's the wrench for
What width did you get? And do you know what your measurement was? I’m debating between the 16in and 18in because I measure exactly 16in.
Definitely get 18 since once you sit your body gets wider, plus it gives leeway if you end up getting wider at some point (definitely not to offend, it happened to me) plus bigger is better. It’s better to get a geriatric wheelchair and have it big then rust getting a juvenile wheelchair and have to return it for it being to small.
Thanks, I ended up going with the 18in and it fits well
i personally getting a more snug fit, but not too snug. It makes it easier to push and more comfortable
Do you find that the lack of treads is an issue?
Sorry for the late reply! So far, I've had no major issues. It slides sometimes when I put too much forward pressure on it too suddenly, but otherwise, it works great!
i can not open the wheelchair?
Push down on the center of the seat
Can open mine either it’s locked or something can’t even get my hands to the seat
I’m a recent foot amputee and this wheelchair is arriving on Monday. Great video. Thank you!!! (give me a follow) :)
but u can walk tho
Yep! I explained in the description, but I have heart and neurological conditions that are episodic, so sometimes I can walk fine and other times I need a lot of help. It's why there's a cane and a shower chair in the background too.
One condition listed is POTS, you can only walk for limited time with this condition before blood begins to pool in your feet and you faint. It doesn’t effect how you walk just how long your body will let you walk.
Josh Garay I have crps and i can walk but it still hurts terribly
Yup there's some people that are ambulatory wheelchair users. Not everyone who is in a wheelchair is paralyzed. Some people may have muscle weakness and/ or pain getting around or their doctor just said they need one for whatever medical reason but no one owes you their medical history.
Not everybody in a wheelchair can’t walk.
Gahhh that music🤮
