My wife has Parkinson's, 5' tall 160. She needs to keep walking, but most doctors visits etc. exceed the distance she can walk. The wheel base for this is long making it hard to turn. The frame flexes when she is being pushed, the back rest strap catches on the frame while trying to collapse for transport. It is very light, not comfortable for long periods of time sitting. A large person would fit, but you will get a workout trying to push them. I returned the item and went back to a transport chair
