going down isnt the problem, its going up that hard, if you can make one that goes up on its own that would be fucking fantastic, but when you gotta carry a pt up the stairs the tracks make that chair heavy as fuck
James ward I'm sure they do however my department won't buy even one just to try it out, we still use to good ole Fernos, and for the most part I don't think thats going to change because Chicago apartment stairways are really narrow and they have winding stair cases ect.. I can only dream that one day my dept. will wise up and buy some
Unless you have thighs of steel you cannot climb the stairs facing the direction forward. & yes, these are heavier & more cumbersome. I dread everyone I have to use this.
Great video, very helpful! Thank you for posting.

You're not supposed to use the track going up the stairs - it provides additional resistance in both directions. Try watching the video.
Mike Riley no shit i never said that..try reading the comment more carefully.
So thats what that ratcheting sound was....I heard it as I was taken down the stairs. I was a bit out of it at the time lol
