Everything works well enough, even the brake locks. And the seat makes a good nightstand, put stuff in pouch to move around. Pouch is big enough to hold a tablet and a couple medium books, or a medium purse. But it doesn't have a lid, and the seat covers it instead, which means it will not completely keep weather out. So just use your own pouch or bag outdoors and put it inside this one. The handlebar height is good, handlebars at middle of range for 5 feet 5 inches, and the seat and handlebar width is good for slim-average builds. It fits through 27 inch doors, and the rubbery wheels run smoothly and quietly. They don’t get ahead of us on flat surfaces, but they run so smoothly that if you need very strong grip on the ground, they might get ahead of you. We havens tried hills, gravel, grass, etc yet. The handlebars wiggle a little, but just side to side, not twisting or up and down. They are shaped to hold easily, and are rough plastic for nonslip gripping. The brakes work fine, just squeeze while holding the handles, but they need a slightly stronger grip than we have for a full and lasting stop. This might be easier for you. The brake locks work too, just press down. Both brakes might loosen a bit with use, so the tightness might be a blessing after awhile. It steers easily and only needs an extra foot or two on each side to turn around. The wires barely stick out at all, and loose twisty-ties will keep them right up against the bars for very tight spaces. The seat and backrest are thickly padded but hard to me, mainly used for perching, quick rests, and carrying things. The instruction manual is pretty good, easy to understand, but small print. It even has how to set your best handle height (standing straight, at bend of wrist), and how to hand-adjust brakes if tight or loose. It was easy to put together, and the handlebar washers are curved to fit snugly against the metal poles. If you have trouble with them, check that they fit snugly because mine arrived backwards on the screws. But turning them around made them fit perfectly. One thing though, it was hard to tell back from front, and not easy to see in the tiny drawing. So the backrest holes in the main body are lower than the handlebar holes. We haven’t tried folding or lifting, too heavy for us, but we are very weak. The folding strap is thicker than the string we found on a different brand, but still not thick if you have problems with grip. The solder is smeared on the joints, not sure if any got inside them, so surface solder might risk cracking and breaking with heavy weight, hard use, or use over a long time. This is luxury, but we wish it had a solar-battery headlight for safety. The color is a pretty, deep blue.
