I'm not sure, but I think LittleQuad is talking about transfers from
the front, instead of the side. Is that right LittleQuad? I'm like
you Brien, and do my transfer to the bed from the side. Which means
no need to remove footrests. However, to transfer to toilet and
bathtub, I do my transfer frontwise, so I have to remove footrests for those.

I transfer into a power chair. With the armrest all the way back
and behind the cushion, there is no obstruction to sliding

Here is the url for my chair notice the footrests are not in the
way at all

Those of you who transfer, I'm assuming you are in manual chairs?
What kind do you use? I am obviously not going to be able to do it
into a electric wheelchair. The legs are like 8 lbs each!
Thanks
