Hi Joan...
Don't be too jealous... from what I understand it never lasts and it rarely
ends well!!
But then again, there was one person that helped me out with some emergency
PCA Care when I first arrived in Tucson after my parents pulled out to start
driving back east. All because my
So after 3 or 4 screw-ups getting my chair fixed (it would come back with
more problems than I sent it in with, some minor some major). It finely came
back and seemed to be OK. BUT.., I took it out for a longer ride and notice

Hopefully soon I can qualify for a new chair. For almost 20 years I've used
mid or front wheel chairs. My very first chair was a rear wheel, belt

of going back to that chair. It's better looking now, though still not
great.
Hopefully soon I can qualify for a new chair.
Greg, Start NOW making a list, literally, of things you want for your new

Greg,
I think 21st Century still makes the old style chairs with the 20 rear tires.
I had a new chair made in 2005 and RD said they had no plans to discontinue
them (though that WAS 5 years ago).
I find the smaller rear wheels getting me stuck in gravel, soft soil, etc. much
more often than
My last two chairs have been 21st century. And I always get the large
20 inch rear wheels. As long as the drive belts are tight, the wheels
don't bog down. Also, I always get the pneumatic tires of course flat
tires are inevitable but Wal-Mart sells the inner tubes for $2.35
apiece. And they
don't be a bitch, don't be a prick to your help; don't blame the world for the
