InvacareTracer SX5 Wheelchair for Adults | Everyday Folding | 20 Inch Seat | Desk Arms

My 90 year old Mother must use a wheelchair. She's had several but says "this is the most comfortable and easiest to roll" The only thing I would have hoped for was a "pocket on the back" to hold items when using it in public - cell phone, bottle of water, tissues etc. Durable but lighter to left and move than many others.

I specifically got an Invacare wheelchair from my experience in hospitals. Also because of all the optional equipment it can use to fit specific needs -- like ONE HANDED use (Invacare has a one hand operating kit for this wheelchair you can order from them).It's not light (43lbs!).It's designed for heavy duty 5 years of use.Hospitals have used Invacare wheelchairs for decades. Nurses comment about the quality compared to others (why I searched for it, too).What you get is a base wheelchair (mine came with no leg accessories, but it did have the fat grey pneumatic front wheels). It came fully assembled in a HUGE box. Had to open the box and pull the wheelchair out of it, then roll it indoors.It's build like a tank. It folds. It will take a beating and the wear and tear be it in rural or suburbia terrains. Really solid and strong.My advice is when getting the leg plates is to get a lap belt, too. A hard bump it's easy to be pushed forward. The nylon cloth is smooth so it's easy to slide in the seat. The lap belt helps to prevent needing to scoot back into the chair.Another note: when trying to figure width size, sit in a dining room chair and measure it to see if there's any wood/cushion/mesh left around your thighs. Inch seating around your thighs is a perfect fit.Everything is industrial heavy -- even the leg plates. The ones I got off of Amazon have to be at least 3lbs each (I have the chrome steel hemi articulating leg plates). Did I say HEAVY DUTY? The steel frames will last for over a decade!

The chair is amazing except one of the caps that go on top of one of the front wheels is missing. I really need that cap so I guess I will have to find a way to contact someone that will mail one to me. Otherwise, this chair makes all the difference.

We have been trying to find a wheelchair for my grandma and we ordered one, got it and it was broken. We returned it and ordered same wheelchair, got it today and the same part was broken. Cheap plastic, no protection in the box to keep the wheelchair from being thrown around. Severely disappointed. Luckily it’s super easy to return. Only good comment I have.

Easily rolls about and crosses thresholds

I have purchased three of these chairs for my disabled son. The first, I just replaced when it broke because we needed it. The second, lasted three months. I called Amazon; they told me to call Invacare. When I called Invacare, the Cust service team told me that the warranty does not cover the chair if I purchased through Amazon. The bottom line is that the chair is ok if you plan on repeatedly purchasing one every few months I recently purchased another because again it was needed but it will be the last.Sadly , I must now find another more reputable company 🤬as my son does need a lightweight chair. …Fool me once... I am the foolEdit….ok. Customer service contacted me and promised to send a new chair! Will keep updated!

Love it. Easy for my husband to move around since he's homebound for now.

I have had an Invacare wheelchair in the past and it is a great brand. It is sturdy and well made. I purchased the Fomi cushions for it and they work wonderful. Fomi and Invacare go together like peanut butter and jelly!!!
