Combined with its stylish silver vein frame and matching front riggings, the Veranda combines style and durability at an affordable price.
Comfortable, smooth ride, padded armrests; this one beats any rental wheelchair! And the price is right.
We liked the Invacare Veranda so much that we just got another one for my mom.
Also, if the person riding can reach under the seat, then the under-the-seat organizer (by Case Logic), is a good idea to have as an accessory.
A 3' x 4' rug draped over the lower edge of your vehicle trunk can help while getting the chair in/out without damaging your car.

The design is overall quite good - the frame is more robust than in other wheelchairs of this price range. However, two components make this unsuitable for long-term use: the seat back and the footrests.
The seat back is nylon cloth without any rip-stop - it tore off the chair in the first week of use. The seat bottom is reinforced to prevent this.
The swingaway footrests feel flimsy and bent slightly outwards where they meet the frame (but not to the point of being unusable) after a few weeks of use.
The wheels give good traction, and the wheel grip is textured plastic - much better grip than smooth metal.
Casters flutter at high speeds - only noticeable if you're used to pushing your wheelchair fast.
