HEALTHLINEWheelchair Elevating Legrests with Padded Calf Pads 1 Pair

Already had an older wheelchair that I purchased at Goodwill but no leg extensions. Insurance was going to rent me a new wheelchair with leg lift, my cost $31 monthly. I purchased these for what I would have paid for one month of rental. They fit wheelchair nicely, work great and saved me money.

I have the Drive brand wheelchair these fit perfectly. I had an original pair of these that came with the chair but somehow the left one got jammed in the open position. I may have dropped it when removing it and it and it landed just wrong because the lever wouldn’t move. I had broken my ankle and have to keep it elevated. I ordered these and they are much better quality. Hope this review helps.By the way, we were able to remove the the mechanism that raised and lowered our original foot rest and we leave the pair in the car for when we travel.

This product installed quickly on my Invacare Tracer SX5. It does swing out of the way and in addition to being able to adjust for the length of your leg, it also allows the leg to raise up and stick straight out or at an in between angle if needed. One thing to think about is that it does add 8-12 inches on the front of your wheelchair when it is in the normal sitting position, so you may not be able to manipulate it through tight halls and doorways in your home. I could not get into my bedroom with these leg rests attached. My work around is to disconnect them (which is quick and easy) and leave them in the living room when I’m traveling around the house or going to my bedroom, and to reattach them when I will be sitting in the chair for long periods and don’t have small areas to navigate.

I wish I could give them a minus 5 stars! This doesn't say children's, but these definitely are NOT adult. I'm short, 5'2", and they are too short for me. I needed wheelchair legs that elevated after surgery. Not only were they too short, the elevated leg jammed after 2 X using. I was using only the elevated leg, without the foot rest down, and I tried lowering the leg, just a click or two, and it wouldn't lower. I took it to a wheelchair repair shop, and they said it was a piece of c****, and I should return it, I tried, and found out they don't take returns. I tried to contact the company to tell them they didn't fit, and was jammed, but they don't have a way to contact them!! SHOWS HOW DISHONEST THEY ARE!!!! I had to purchase another legrest set. THIS TIME WITH AN HONEST COMPANY WHO STANDS BEHIND THEIR MERCHANDISE!!

Product made well. Could be a little longer. Definitely fit the Med line transport chair. Glad my 97 year old mom is short. Otherwise any one over 5’4” this will not suffice.
