My mother is 5'0" and 150 lbs...would this chair be too big for her and would this work for her? Thanks! Eileen

Depends how long her legs are torso are. My mom is a few inches taller and this chair was great for her. It is a smaller chair - width wise. really light and really great / easy to transport my mom around.

My Dad is taller but about the same weight. This chair is light but feels more sturdy than cheaper chairs we've used. Everyone that helps him loves this chair!

As a matter of fact, my mom loves it!!!She's about the same height and weight.

My mother uses this wheelchair, she is 5'1 approximately 140 pounds and fits comfortably. It certainly is not too big. She was actually used to a wheelchair that was larger but did not fit well in her condo.

I think it would be fine. It's also pretty light for lifting it in and out of the car.

No, There are no thick cushions so you sit rather low and her feet can touch easily. It's very light and easy to handle. Be careful because it will tip forward because of the front wheel being to closed to rear tires. I always set the brake if I need to lean over for any thing

Your mother should be fine in this chair. It is lightweight, easy to maneuver and seems to have plenty of room. My dad is 5-6", about 130 pounds and did well.

I am also 5'3" and my height was not a problem to fit in the chair. The problem is I am skinny. I weigh about 100 lbs. I feel the chair was too big for me because the back rollers are either too far apart or too deep for me to feel it.

Absolutely! Great for my Mother (89 yr old), 5' max, 120lbs. Works beautifully.

I weigh one hundred pounds. Other family members have used the chair, but none of them are overweight. I would not rely on this chair for someone over 175#. Just a guess. The chair is sturdy, but not hefty. Depends on the user. It is in the family room. No problems.

I bought this chair for my stepfather and he is not tall. It is fine for him. It is a normal size chair, not too large and not too small. I have sat in it myself and it is extremely comfortable. My husband is 5'11" and he would not have any trouble sitting in it.

My little one is 17m now and barely 28" She's been using this chair for a while now (way before her first birthday) and it fit her perfectly from day one. Give it a try. I think I posted a picture from when she first used it.

My mother weighs about 180# and it has works great. I am not sure maximum weight. I Love the chair!

I bought it for my daughter who is 4'5" and 60 pounds, but my son occasionally sits in it. He is 5'7"" and 155 pounds. It seems to work fine, although he has never used it for an extended period. The chair is well built, and packs well in a car trunk or an airplane.

My mother is 200lbs and I do not trust it to hold her weight. The unit itself is wide but the seat is almost child-size. Too small for 200 lbs.

I am 5'1" and 350lbs and this is the best chair I have ever had. I think it would be great for you. I have to keep it at the lowest setting so I can touch the floor. The seat raises up much higher.

I weigh 135 and have no problems fitting in this chair, as I stated in another review the back is a bit low for upper body support but otherwise, it's a lovely chair. Make sure when you get it to tighten the legs with an L bracket every few months though.

I bought this chair for my husband, he is 5'10" and is about 300 lbs. the chair is very wide. He loves it! He is not as tall as your husband but he can sit for hours in it and he has back probls as well. It was worth the $ for us!

I am 5' 8" and let's just say I am about what you weigh. Being that you have a few inches height on me you might find it more comfortable than I have. The back pushes you forward some and I find myself "fighting" with it. In all honesty when I have to replace this chair I will not be buying another like it. I need a straight back situation but this is too forward. I hope this helped.

i think it is a little small for such a tall person. my sons are 6'6 and weigh 190 and it is a little snug. the chair is nice though. hope this helps you.

I was going to order this chair and stopped when I saw this post. I am 5'2", I never heard if a chair that doesn't adjust for someone my height. Is this true? Thanks

I am 47, 5'2, and 120 lbs and I love mine and think its perfect for me. I am also moderately fit and think this would be ideal for you! Good Luck!

My dad is also 6ft 5" and this chair works great for him. My dad is 315 lbs and no problem with this chair.
