I purchased this chair for my 91 yr old Mother who has great difficulty with mobility due to bad arthritis in her knees.  She also suffers from short term memory loss.  This chair is perfect for her and she loves all the compliments she gets!  It is stylish, comfy and very easy for her to use as the control panel has only an "UP" or "DOWN" option.  It seems well made, it is easy to move around and it looks sleek and stylish.  I also picked this chair as it is designed for smaller spaces/small apartments.  It would not be appropriate for an extra large adult.  Just be sure to check the posted dimensions before ordering.
