FLUX Slim-Line Narrow Wheelchair for Limited Spaces – 250 lbs Weight Capacity – 18”-21” Seat Height Office, House Wheelchair

My wife broke her ankle during our vacation in Costa Rica. Fortunately, we found an excellent surgeon - and everything went well. After we returned, however, maneuvering around the house with a heavy boot - and "no pressure" on one leg was a big challenge!Regular wheelchairs don't fit through standard residential doorways. So I searched for a solution online - and fortunately found your Flux Slimline Daily Living product. I picked it up yesterday and my wife loves it! The Flux Slimline fits easily through all of our doorways, and is easy and stable to get in and out of. A photo is attached.I have a technical background and was concerned about the design and quality of the Flux Slimline - based on some of the reviews on Amazon's site. Now that I have seen the Flux Slimline first hand, I know it is well made:> The frame, adjustable seat mount and brake fittings are well designed, with quality materials. The welds, paint and finish are excellent.> The Flux Slimline is light and maneuvers easily on wood floors and carpets.> The brakes are solid and effective.> Even though the Flux is narrower than a standard wheelchair, the innovative design allows the seat and backrest to be fairly wide. I am 5' 10", 200 lbs, and the Flux Slimline fit me just as well as my 5' 2" wife; and the adjustable seat is comfortable.> The Flux looks sharp too - without the 'hospital' appearance of a standard wheelchair.In short, if you need a wheelchair inside your home for a person of average size, this is a great solution. Highly recommended.Mark Hays

This home wheelchair does exactly what it's meant to do. I am newly a bilateral amputee (both legs are gone above knee) and our home has some slightly narrow spaces that doesn't accommodate a standard size wheelchair. For example our bathroom doorways are not a standard size doorway, about 23" width. It has been extremely difficult for me to access these areas of our home.I got this chair today and was able to assemble it myself without aggravating my staples in the surgical site from my recent leg amputation too much. Even with my severe physical impairment,I was able to assemble the chair in about 20 minutes. They include 2 Allen wrenches and this tiny thin wrench for tightening the wheel nut. Throw that away and grab pliers or ANY other adjustable wrench.This product is very good and if you are in a position like me, it is worth the money. Even in the hour I've had it, it has saved me a considerable amount of time and pain.The negative are this. This company has this market cornered. There are no other companies that sell a product like this. So, even though this product is good and I'm glad we have it. It is made well and all of the pieces are good. This is just an office chair with wheelchair wheels and a more fitting price would be $300-$400, so it's over priced. Like my title says, they have the market cornered and can charge whatever they want.The conclusion is this. It is a great product and would absolutely be beneficial for someone with physical disability wanting to get around their home easier.Even though it is more expensive than it should be if there was other companies competing with a similar product, buy it. It absolutely will allow you to access places that a standard wheelchair will not allow you to go.(Update) I've had this chair for a few months now and It's just not worth the price. The screws that hold the wheel lock in place consistently come loose. For the money we spent on the chair it should be made from much better hardware and materials. It is convenient and enables me to get into our bathrooms which have narrow doorways. But, its price point does not match the quality. It is cheaply made unfortunately.I have updated this a couple times. This product is horrible for the price. Less than a year after purchase the back support snapped, I cannot put my weight on it anymore.The worst part was yesterday, it said it supports 250 pounds. Well, I was transferring from my recliner to the wheelchair and out about half my weight as I was moving, the metal arm support snapped completely off! I do not have legs and this caused me to face plant onto the hardwood floor and now have severe shoulder pain. I have not been able to go to work the past 2 days. I’m contacting an attorney for false advertising and whatever comes of my doctors visit that I have to have because of this garbage wheelchair. I would buy a different one, but I’m a single disabled father, so really cannot afford it.Save yourself a lot of trouble. Do not buy this product.

I love that this fits through my narrow doorways. I wish it folded so I could use it out and about. It is very light and easy to maneuver in my home.

Like a really nice, very stable office chair. Width is better than any transport chair out there (no outer rings). Reclining back is nice. Had some problems with the telescoping (height adjust) lever banging into the wheel. Bending it helps. Good customer service. Unfortunately, the brakes are extremely stiff little plastic pads on the front casters requiring leg strength & dexterity for FOOT application. This is NOT the right chair for anyone who doesn't have those abilities. Also has to be maneuvered so that the brake is in front to be accessible. Even a see-saw/lever type caster brake would be better. Or traditional handbrake option. Warning; the awesome width measurement is WITHOUT the OPTIONAL hand propulsion rings for the wheels ($50 extra). So add that width & its almost the same as a sling type ($100) transport chair. Without them, have to use hands on the actual wheels (in contact with the floor/ground). Probably good for an office worker.

Purchased this when my foot ended up in a cast for the next six months. It was easy to assemble. I did a lot of online shopping before I picked this one. Good price for a good quality wheel chair. It is strong (I am not a small or light person). It is reasonably comfortable. It is also narrow to get through doorways that were not built with ADA involved.

This chair did not work for my mobility issues. I need the arms to support me while I transfer, and this chair is too lightweight and felt like it might tip. Also, the wheels slipped on my hardwood floors. This chair is perfect for getting through narrow doorways, and because it is, it has a small seat and was not comfortable for me for more than 1/2 hour.Return shipping cost me $180.00
