Absolutely hit pay dirt with this purchase. Purchased because having muscular dystrophy means pulling and pushing a chair toward the table once you're in it is very difficult. Went online to find "folding chair with wheels" because I needed a chair that I can take with me places so I can maintain some independence getting in and out of a chair that is used at a table. Found light weight wheelchairs but they had a lot of negatives. This chair is a little heavier than I wanted (27 lbs.). I wanted one that I could lift myself but I didn't think that 19 lbs. (the weight of the folding wheel chair) was worth the loss of comfort--I can get help with it in and out of the car then it rolls where you want it. This chair has a curved solid back, a really nice seat cushion and very easy roll wheels. I'm not sure what the weight limit is for a user but I had no problems at 160lbs. I'm writing a review because there weren't any when I took the chance to purchase---I crossed my fingers. So happy I did. Would have like to have arm rests that fold up as well but that would add more weight. Just one thing to note: It doesn't fold flat. The seat folds up to the back but the legs are stationery. Ok with me as it gives it more stability but if you expect a flat folding chair it's not quite that. This is a passport to a more social life for some of us that have some physical disabilities.
