Sounds ideal Genia. The ability to tilt would be extremely helpful to so many people. I’ll have to look it up. Thanks for sharing this great tip.

It is about a third of the weight of my son’s regular chair. It has large off-road tires and is a three wheel chair with the third wheel at the back making it great for approachability. It also has some adjustability in tilt – about 4 inches – that goes a long way in helping seating position.

The main disadvantage for travel is that it is a bit wider. But the versatility and “go anywhere” tires more than make up for width.
