I am a double amputee and have been in a chair for 4 years. Two of my last chairs have been the S-115 Ergo and I can say by far the best chair. I would go the extra mile to purchase the 8 spoke wheels due to the spokes keep loosening up and hard to keep aligned, I will not try anything else unless you can actually go and sit in one. Been there and had a hard time returning it. Freight was then on me...

We are very pleased with the Karman 802-DY wheelchair. We keep it in the car and use it for outings. This comfortable chair is light enough to easily store and retrieve from the car and is sturdy enough for the repeated handling. The hard-rubber tires allow it to roll smoothly and easily over all surfaces and I have no problems maneuvering it wherever I go.

I ordered this chair for my boyfriend who has MS. It is well made. Very sturdy. I ordered anti tippers but Never got them with the chair. I sent an email but haven't heard from them. But you will love how well made it is.. Here are a couple of pics. The arm rest covers don't come with it.

I decided to spring for a quality wheelchair. Most of the transport chairs I use end up falling apart in one year so I was on the hunt for a good wheelchair that would withstand and feel comfortable. After many days of researching wheelchairs, watching Youtube reviews, and reading online articles, I wound up at Karmen Healthcare. Huge selection of wheelchairs but I decided to go with the ergo 115. Been very happy with my purchase -- the ride is smooth and the seat is very comfortable, as advertised. I also ordered the raised footrests as an add-on and they work wonderfully. very excited to use this chair when I go out.

I was searching for a wheelchair for partial use as I can still walk short time and/or distance, but start to get weak when it comes to long walk and/or distance. I looked around pros and cos of different styles, mainly about how they fold and the type of tires, I made my choice to get a light weight, with outdoor tires and that easily fold for transport as I don't use it full time. I browsed hundred of models and some brands, reading reviews to have an idea of what to expect and to choose wisely.

I eventually came around Karman brand in my search, I loved how the chairs has a pretty design, some color choices, but as well how it matched everything I was looking for (as stated above). The price was a down side, it's hard to afford, thought quality come with a cost. I eventually had the benefit of a nice discount and took the opportunity to order it.

When the box get in, I was surprised by how light it is! Of course I knew I ordered a ligjtweight wheelchair, but didn't expected it to be so true to its name. The wheelchair is light, confortable and easy to move around, even for a beginner wheelchair user like me. The removable padding is a bit thin, but still comfortable. My only complain is that one of the feet rest is cracked already, right out of the box.

If you need to replace one swing away footrest the manufacturer will only sell you both (left and right) for $239 plus tax and shipping. My brother lost the left swing away foot rest on his S-ERGO115F18RS wheelchair. The company will not replace just one footrest, and the high cost for replacing these simple swing away footrests is exorbitant.

When I first sat in this I thought it was to narrow. After using it more, I know know I made the right decision.
The chair is very sturdy, no shaking. The locks do a great job and it's very easy to maneuver. I love the anti-tippers. I highly recommend this chair.

LT-700T feedback:
A good priced entry-level wheel chair.
I think this chair has as much plastic as steel, but seems very sturdy. This helps it be lightweight. They should smooth out the touch sharp edges on the mag wheels and hand rim, at the factory, in my opinion… they are sharp enough to cause issues with fingers. Another improvement would be on the plastic footrests … very sharp edges and bottoms… have nicked myself several times getting in and out the chair: how about some felt on the footrest bottoms? From the factory, the brake push handles were too tight too, so I found the 10mm adjustment bolt and took care of that.

One week later:
The plastic wheels near the hub and bearing started creaking, squeaking… loudly. I put the wheelchair on it’s side and spinning the wheel reproduced the same sound, right along 4 or 5 of the mag wheel spokes. Took off the bearing cap and sprayed in some WD-40, let it sit for several hours. Spun the wheel and still squeaked, with chair laying on its side. Put the bearing cap back on and rolled chair around … squeak gone. (Weird.) But I figure that the lubricant will dry up and squeak will return. Called tech support and sent them a video of the squeak. They are sending me a replacement wheel(s)? once I install, I will update this post …
