Adjustable Seat Height

Custom seat height for each user. Most users may require some adjustability in their wheelchairs. This two position not only allows the height to be adjusted, but also the angle for which a user may wish to position their pressure in a wheelchair. These are optional adjustments and proper height and positioning should be advised by your medical professional.

Options Available

Anti Tippers available as safety. This is a standard must if you live and/or travel in a hill or decline area. Most users will not need such extra parts just by simply mobilizing on a horizontal platform. Having this is a safety feature for your travel destinations. It is easily removeable through a pin attached an release mechanism which is tool-less.

Customers are mixed about the maneuverability of the wheelchair. Some mention it's easy to maneuver, and absolutely necessary when walking the long distance.

That said, some complain that it does not roll well on any carpet and that it makes it a little harder to roll over things.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for someone with poor upper arm strength
Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2023
Style: Gen 1Verified Purchase
This is a great ultra light wheelchair. I purchased it after trying a friend’s much heavier wheelchair, which was impossible for me to maneuver. I have M.S. and recently fell and broke my fibula. I needed a wheelchair I could push. This is perfect for me. Super light weight, easy to maneuver. I wish the little pouch on the back was bigger, so I could put my iPad in there easily. This wheelchair is easy to push, easy to lift up. One warning; While is is good on carpet, but much better on vinyl. It is difficult to push on grass and it is very shaky on gravel..so keep that in mind. I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone who is very heavy though. I am 5’3” and weigh 120 lbs. You have to consider the size of the person who may be pushing you. Another thing—I did purchase a thick seat for it here on Amazon. The “seat” for most wheelchairs is really more like a sling. You may want to look into a thicker seat cushion. I am very pleased with this ultra light wheelchair!

I loved this easy for me to lift, well made pushed great. Unfortunately my mom wasn’t as impressed and it was for her. She is 4’10” 188 lbs 84 years old, it fit her perfectly. However because of the light weight she said she didn’t feel comfortable. So we ended up returning it. Had the price been around $150-$180 I would have kept it as a second wheelchair for her but at almost $300 I just couldn’t justify the cost. Having 2 would have meant leaving one in the vehicle and the other in the house which would have been convenient.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic upgrade over the wheelchair provided by hospital!
Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2020
Style: Gen 1Verified Purchase
Let me start by saying that this wheelchair is an upgrade replacement for my wife. Two years ago, after surviving a below-the-knee amputation of her right leg, she was provided with a Drive Medical Cruiser III.
The old wheelchair weighs in at approximately 37 pounds. And it was OK overall. It got the job done.

Well, about a year ago, we started reviewing other wheelchairs as a potential replacement. We kept coming back to the Karman LT-980 because it was advertised as substantially lighter (approximately 24 pounds) and it wasn't terribly expensive. Actually, it wasn't too much more than the "Drive Medical" which it was replacing.
We searched different sites and at the end of the day, Amazon had the best pricing. We ordered it on Friday and received it two days later ("today"- Sunday).

Side by side, there are some great improvements:
The seat back is a bit taller and firmer than the old one.
The overall width is approximately 2" narrower than the old one - which makes it MUCH easier to get through doorways.
This one is much more rigid - which means it does not squeak / flex like the old one.
Myself as the caregiver, get to save some energy when I lift it into our vehicle - lifting this one is MUCH easier than the old one.
The rear wheels are a bit smaller - some people may not like this. But, combined with the overall design, it means that it folds down substantially smaller than the old one. Again, making it much easier to get it into our vehicle.
Please note that this model has an available option of "Quick release" rear wheels. Ours did not have this feature. But, that's OK.
The front wheels are of a material similar to roller blade wheels - overall, it "rolls" easier in the house and on sidewalks.
No, this is not a titanium "sport" wheelchair. But, it is absolutely worth the extra bucks over the old wheelchair.
Seriously - my wife is absolutely pleased with it - she tells me it is much more comfortable than the old one.
And for me, it is easier to work with. Bottom line?- We both recommend it without hesitation.
And, I have never written a review that is as long as this one. :)

Very fair price for a lightweight quality wheelchair. In use with a man who weighs 220 lbs - and the chair feels sturdy and is comfortable. I really appreciate the quality. Had to find a video on how to fold it, but I felt like a fool once I saw how simple - just pull up on the middle of the seat and it folds right away. Super pleased with this chair!
