My mom is 4ft 8in tall and weighs about 110 lbs. Can anyone tell me if this chair will be large enough for her? Thank you.

Yes, if she is "straight" in build and not wide in her bottom. The seat really is 14" wide. You may have to adjust the wheels to the taller setting to accommodate her legs, but that can be done, simply and in less than 30 minutes.

This is a great chair. We use it for my grandson who is about the same size and weight.

It is probably large enough if proportions are normal. The seat is 14 1/2 inches wide and 13 inches deep. Seat height is adjustable. You would probably need the higher setting - about 16 inches from the floor. It fits my small adult sister with fairly wide hips for her size (4ft 6in and 80 lbs). Hope this helps. Mahlon

It will not be tall enough. My daughter is shorter than that and it is almost too short for her. her knees have to bend up to fit. However most of the peds wheelchairs are so expensive and she does not use it all the time so we ae making it work. The PT was trying to sell us an $1,800 wheelchair which she would use maybe 5 times a month. Crazy

The chair is for sure great quality. But I don't think that a 300lbs person would fit in it. I have the one that has armrest on it and I just fit perfectly on it. I'm 170lbs and I think the max capacity is only 200.. Thanks. I hope you won't take my words offensively...

I am 6'4 250 and bought the chair for my wife who is 4'10. It did not fit her and is now mine. I love it.

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 am a large woman (300 lbs) and it has no trouble supporting me. Now and then the legs need to be tightened back up, but other than that it is a great chair. I use it as a desk chair and since I work from home 4 days a week, it gets quite a bit of use! I have had it for almost a year now and it has held up to daily use VERY well!

Sorry, I had to return the chair. The seat as too deep for my mom as she us only 5 feet tall. Wanted to let you know they were terrific about returning it...very pleased.

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.

It is very small. My mom is 4'8" and 100 lbs, and it works for her. I think you would find it to be too small and uncomfortable.

I would say you probably would want something a little taller in back. My wife and I are both under 5'9" so it is fine for us. Very nice chair. Hope this helps.

My mom is the same height and the height works great. What does not work is that the seat is too big. She is very small so she can't sit evenly. This is a very nice chair for someone larger

It depends on how semi it is. I'm overweight, but not obese. I have a bit of room but if I was heavier, it'd be a tight fit. It'd also depend on where the weight is carried. If it's carried in the hips and sides, I'd recommend another chair.

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'm sorry but the chair is not with me now and I am not sure when I can check. I can tell you that it is the normal size chair in every way. My mother is about 5'5" 145 lb and has plenty of room. I have normal doors and it goes through them if that helps.

My Mother is 5'2" so I would assume the cane would be far too tall for you too. You can always buy it and try it and if it doesn't work out, send it back.

I think it may be too narrow. It is perfect for my mother, who is 85# and 4'10".

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.

My mom was about the same size. The smaller 16 inch was perfect for her. At 5 foot 5 inches and 165 lbs. even I could sit comfortably in it. It beats the large instituional wheelchair she had before.
