Okay guys need some help here. I've been using a bear of a wheelchair for the past ten years anytime I have to go somewhere that requires a lot of walking (grocery shopping, the mall, Lowes) And while I haven't had many issues with my chair I do think I can do a bit better than the $100 hulking invicare special. Especially now that it has creaked its final spin (the seat is worn, the casters and wheels are chipped and the hand rims are veritable hand slicers)

So my DH has been looking at the ultralight weight chairs, narrowing the field to a toss up between the Quickies and the TiLites. Both offer reclining backs, elevating leg rests, pop off wheels, folding back and both are within a pound of each other as well as within $100 difference between the two. The Quickie only offers a 2" seat pad, while the TiLite offers up to a 4" cushion (but honestly, have sewing machine can easily make a cushion as thick or thin as I want) and both look compact enough to maneuver around the house if providing I remove the hand rims, and possibly take off the leg rests to get in and out of the bedroom (ranch style home with very narrow hallway 34" wide which is only 2" wider than a standard door frame)

My current wheelchair can go down the hall but there's no way to negotiate it into any of the bedrooms. The real kicker is I need to decide soon, my DH wants to take a trip to Disney in September and it takes about 6 weeks to get a customized chair. In addition to the fact that I'm currently without a chair, mine is simply dead to the point of being all but unusable excepting dire need.

Does anyone have one or the other that can give an idea about the comfort of those chairs? The ratings and reviews really don't help in figuring out which chair would be more comfortable which at this point is about the biggest difference I can imagine would arise. Otherwise if they're both comparable in comfort, I'm down to color acid green or black cherry, which still doesn't help me decide any easier since given a can of spray paint I can easily make it any color I like.

My first chair was bought as a cheaper solution to renting (never thinking I'd need beyond an 8 week casted period) this time I'm looking for all around comfort and compact.
