Question
Hi - my husband has bad knees, recently had foot surgery. Hes a big guy - 310 pounds. He 'walks' in the chair to get around. Question: The transport chairs seem like they'd be easier for him to navigate with, easier to go down halls and around corners. Yes Could he set the brake? Thanks. Sue

Answer

This type of transport chair can definitely be used for the purpose you require, however, the brakes are not accessible to the user of the chair, generally these would only be accessible from behind by the person who is "operating" the chair.

If you would like something that he can operate the brakes by himself, we would recommend a standard wheelchair with full-size wheels.
