Description
With a tight turning radius of only 19.7" and 8" solid drive wheels, the Drive Geo power wheelchair is a great choice for both indoor and light outdoor power chair use. It is also a great value with an adjustable angle and height footplate and a comfortable height-adjustable seat with flip-back, adjustable-width arms included in the price. It also has a convenient built-in timer that shuts down the chair if it has not been used for 30 minutes, saving battery power for when you are ready to go. Need the controls on the left side? No problem. The controls can easily be moved to the left side.

Excellent buy for the price.
Reviewer: Robert F. from Champaign, ILEnd User Desc: 64 year old male. Severe right side stroke has made it difficult to walk distances longer than roughly 150 feet without resting.
Strengths: Compact, and has tight turning radius.
Weaknesses: Assembly of two base pieces is tricky. Would recommend contacting manufacturer customer service, where good, clear instructions on this step are available. User manual is very poor.

Reviewer: Celia F. from Kiowa, KS (caregiver)End User Desc: The user is my 96 year old father. He is unhappy with the Geo chair because it doesn't respond as fast as he would like. He runs into things.
Strengths: The Geo chair fits through doors and is usable in a home.
Weaknesses: The joy stick controls are hard to use for slow thinkers or old people that are too stuborn to change their way of thinking.

This product has significantly improved the quality of our lives.
Reviewer: Ruth W. from Oxford, AL (caregiver)End User Desc: User is 66 yr. old man (my husband) with multiple back problems which make it extremely painful for him to walk more than a few feet at a time.
Strengths: The main strength, as far as I am concerned, is the weight and portability of the product. I am a 62 yr. old female with minor back problems, but I can easily disassemble the chair and load it in the trunk of our car by myself, and then unload it and reassemble it. This has made us much more independent since we don't have to rely on having someone to help with the handling of the chair.
Weaknesses: The instruction booklet was not very helpful. We still haven't figured out how to raise the seat, but my husband has gotten adjusted to the height as it is, and is satisfied with it. Would be better if the back was higher.

Nice lightweight wheelchair for the price.
Reviewer: jane scott W. from Columbia, CT (caregiver)End User Desc: 86 year old mother needs something lightweight to tool around the assisted living, hopefully light enough for her daughters to take apart for shopping
Strengths: Ease of use, turning radius, not too orthopedic looking.
Weaknesses: Wish they would figure out how to make a lightweight wheelchair that was EASY to put together at the store. Like by one person in the parking lot. This is not quite it yet.

Good Affordable Powerchair
Reviewer: Phoenix C. from Omaha, NEEnd User Desc: 40 year old female, inflammatory arthritis, mild COPD, birth defect in legs, fatigue, CVID, painful to stand for more than 10-15 min.
Strengths: The chair's top speed is reasonably fast - a moderately fast walking pace, so I can easily keep up with my husband. Easy to transport in the back of our car. Husband doesn't even need to break it completely down. Handles small bumps well. Very maneuverable, can turn around in lightly occupied elevators.
Weaknesses: For semi-active users, a second battery set/charger/battery case are a good idea as the battery wears down pretty fast. So if you want to go windowshopping, then buy groceries the same day, you'll need two batteries. Limit the max speed to one or two dots at first - there's a learning curve in driving it. Steering stick works best held between base of thumb and hand, not held in fingers, to prevent slipping. Arrived assembled too tightly to be adjusted, so I am stuck with non-adjustable foot rest, seat height, etc.

Quality Function Price
Reviewer: Rex J. from South Jordan, UT (caregiver)End User Desc: I purchased the Geo for my bother. He is 57, a hemipalegic, an amputee, hard headed, and independent.
Strengths: The Drive Medical Geo is a great electric wheelchair at a wonderful price. I purchased the Drive Medical Geo to replace the Pride Mobilty Go Chair. The Go Chair lasted around 18 months then the controller went out. The Geo Chair cost less than the replacement controller for the Go Chair. This has happened to me twice with Jazzy products and their costumer support was nonexistent. As a test I called Drive Medical and was able to talk directly with a technician! SpinLife was very reliable and quick in getting the Geo Chair to me. No worries there at all.
Weaknesses: None experienced.

Light weight, easily transportable
Reviewer: Lois L. from Shakopee, MNEnd User Desc: I am a 65 year old female who has had Rheumatoid Arthritis for 20 years.
Strengths: It's light weight which enables one to put it into a van(car trunk) without a ramp.
Weaknesses: The hand control is not adjustable enough. Would like to be able to turn it in toward my body (in front of me) since I cannot extend my arm straight out, rather than only straight ahead.

Works well for the price, don't know how long it will last.
Reviewer: Andrea S. from Wichita, KS (caregiver)End User Desc: 39 year old female diagnosed with MS, no use of legs, minimal use of right hand.
Strengths: It seems to be the most portable of the electric wheelchairs. It's easy to take apart into four pieces and put back together again for transport. Also even though we were told that it wasn't to be used for everyday use, so far it seems to be holding up. The seat is much more comfortable than the Go-Chair. The turning radius is good and it's pretty easy to maneuver.
Weaknesses: We have only had the chair a couple of months and the battery has already started to lose the ability to fully charge. Still, if you don't have funding to cover the cost of an expensive electric wheelchair, this one seems to work well for the price.

Comfort, I sit like a queen on a throne, like a cat on a pillow.
Reviewer: Mary D. from Alpine, WYEnd User Desc: I'm 75 this Christmas. I have MS and wear out quickly.
Strengths: I can turn around in the hallway, make the bed, open the refrigerator, wash my hands, carry my coffee into the next room as if I had use of my legs. To easily go from the kitchen to the computer, to the bed room, and to the bathroom has been the joy of my life.
Weaknesses: Please do something about the LED lights. I never adjust to this light in my eyes. Finally I put tape over it. Now I punch the buttons blindly, but at least I can see at night. I never found the instructions for assembling it so the seat is wobbly and I can't figure out how I can free wheel.

| Seat
Depth1 Measure from the most posterior point of the body to the inside of the knee, minus at least two inches. Some prefer more leg overhang to make room for their hand when lifting their leg. Back Height2 Measured from the seat base to the top of the chair back. Power wheelchair riders need upper back support, particularly for the moment of initial acceleration. Hanger Angle3 Determines how far the toes extend away from the body, measured from the horizontal. A tighter angle allows the electric power wheelchair to turn around in less space. Depends in part on ability of the knee to bend towards the perpendicular. Seat Width4 Determined by the widest point of the body from knee to hip, plus an inch to ensure room to move. Consider bulk of clothing, particularly a heavy winter coat, if relevant. Front Seat to Floor5 Measure the leg from the back of the knee to the sole of the foot. Then subtract the thickness of the cushion when it is compressed. Next, add a minimum of two inches for footrest clearance. Electric power wheelchairs are almost never foot-propelled by the user - so excluding the additional two inch footrest height for propelling is very rare. |
