do the foot rests come off(leg frames) so you only have the wheel chair to deal with?

Yes, the legs easily detach using a lever then rotating & lifting them off of the support pegs.

only the leg rest, the rest is already together. I also purchased a cushion for this. There isn't much padding on the seat!

Yes, we had to wheel chairs before and it was a little more complicated getting the leg rest on. This one aligns much better and are more flexible to get out of the way and easier to put on. We are very happy with the chair and the leg rest work well.

No the foot rest is not adjustable. This is a great light weight wheel chair. If you purchase, you may want to consider a foam pad to sit on.

Yes, the leg rests are remove able and the arm rest are too ... No tools required. Just click and pop off.

Yes the leg rests are easily removed. We own two, one to keep in my car at all times and one that my husband uses on a daily basis inside the home. We have owned them for almost a year and have had no problems. I appreciate the light weight for getting it in and out of the car. I highly recommend this chair.

No. All I needed to do when mine arrived was snap on the foot rests, which are designed to be removed if you wish.

I can't remember for sure, but I believe you have to assemble the two large wheels, the rear handles at the top, and then the two leg rests come unattached, but are made to be removed easily for storage. Hope that helped.

Yes but not too much. The footrests move in or more out. Great chair all around ...

Wheels are bolted on and not easily removed. Foot rests are easy to take off.

Unfortunately, no. But we have a small footstool we place in front of the chair when my dad wants to stretch out. Aslide-out footrest would be a welcome addition.

Candice :As you can see in the product Photo, the foot rest is a tubular metal piece that Is attached to the front axle. It's main purpose is to keep ones feet off of the floor. It is designed for people whose legs can fully bend at the knee. It does not have separate foot rests like a normal wheel chair. While it's light weight is a real product feature, this chair is not meant for everyone.Robert

Yes, the foot rests can be removed. We take them off frequently. As far as the arm rests, we think they can be removed but we have never had to do this. I wasn't able tp locat the literature to check for you.

I agree with Margaret. I, too, purchased the quick release wheels, but haven't needed to remove them. I load the chair into a small SUV, however, not a car.

Don't know. Neither my husband nor myself, both wheelies, use the leg rest. Sorry.
