How well does the chair perform outdoors without the large back wheels? Thank you.

It performs better in my opinion. Easier to maneuver in establishments. The only value to the wheels I can see is if the person is using them to maneuver. If not then the transport mode is a great option. If I was going off roading, i.e. parks or into grass I would probably put the larger wheel on just for stability.

I use it without the large wheels going to and from doctors etc and have no problem on pavement or sidewalks. Have not tried it in grass or dirt that way though.

this chair will go up and down hills great. It takes more battery power so the battery may not last as long as advertised. I really haven't tried it on grass, but it does just fine on my carpeting. The chair has more than enough power. My husband is the one who uses it and I would recommend it for ease, size and weight. It has 4 speeds, and I recommend paying attention to them.. Makes a big difference

I have not tried using it without the wheels. I move it around my house, raising and lowering it where needed, and love it.

It does have brakes that lock on the back wheels, it's good outside; if in soft/spongy grass it doesn't roll well.

We have it sitting on the front porch and it gets late afternoon sun. The color has not changed but even better it has withstood some very strong winds and stayed upright. It has survived a few days on the beach and folded without a problem. My husband is a large man and he fits well with room to spare. I wouldn't worry about purchasing this chair. It joined an older model that is still in great shape after four years. The cover faded a little but it is still dark blue.

Hey sorry I haven't been cheking my emails lately. The chair itself is durable, just make sure you tighten those screws. As for using the chair outside where there is water, personally I won't do that. I bought this chair for aesthetic reasons for a mid century home in Palm Springs. Again, I cannot tell whether this is durable outside, but for inside use, it is not bad at all.

it is very good to handle, yes the wheels turn very easily and it is not a heavy stroller. i can give a very good for the wheels.the zipper ,is a good quality one but you have to attach it in the right place to shut that window so i can say it deserves a good for this item.

not super well, the wheels can slip a little bit, however, I simply put some grip tape that you can buy here on Amazon or at a local hardware store and it solved the problem. It works great outdoors on the sidewalks though without the tape

Too heavy? It's not a light chair. If you are going to be carrying it on a nature hike, then yes it is too heavy. If you are taking it from the car to a picnic or outdoor event, it's perfect. The durability thing is a big part of it. I've been very happy with how the chair holds up.

It's only good on smoot surfaces - no gravel no little ridges. Wish I had gotten one with regular wheel chair big rear wheels. My 300 lb husband has good arms and could have moved himself around and/or helped me push on rises.

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!

The back (larger) wheels are quite sturdy. They are steel wheels with rubber rims. They are mounted on a single 1/4" steel axle that passes through the whole cart. I generally move the cart by lifting the front wheels off the floor and pushing or pulling the cart to its new location. No issues in either direction.

The chair is very comfortable and we'll worth it for the price. I have not measured it but don't see an issue with a tight back.

The seat is quite comfortable. The wheels are 10" wheels and work well in the grass and off pavement. The ride is very comfortable.

Between the front metal frame it runs a little over 19", measuring in the middle the width is 20". Have had ours for about a year and would not trade if for another. Handbrakes make it easier for me to control on inclines. Large wheels make it easier to move. My son had to borrowed the chair, managed to use it and he weighs over the limit of 300 lbs.

Have been using my Rhino for a couple of months now and I'm very pleased with it. The well constructed frame work has been able to support my 230 frame, but the best feature of the chair is the adjustable back support system. To me that is what sold me this chair and it is very comfortable.

I do not have a specific answer but can tell you this chair is well built and very sturdy. It is not on wheels which is something to keep in mind. I find it difficult sometimes to maneuver as I lack the strength in my legs to push it back from my sewing table. Despite this, I like the chair - very comfortable with excellent back support.
