Footrest was excessively difficult to move up and down. Color shrouds were not sent with chair. I was not informed they were out of stock at the time of sale.

Small, maneuverable 

The product design was changed from previous units to include plastic skirts in front at the bottom . These skirts catch on the ankles of the user when trying to transition into the chair from a walker. They are part of the body of the chair and cannot be removed

The charging plugin.

robert r. from darien, il

has very difficult walking, even with forearm crutches.

It is attractive, and comfortable..

The batteries do not hold a charge long enough to take the bus to the store to get groceries and back. I doubt taking the charger with me would work, because I don't think a store would let me sit around plugged into their power.

kay m. from vancouver, wa

I am 75 years old, with arthritis in my knees, which prevents me from walking very much.

Portable and Easy to assemble and disassemble. Speed is good.

The seat is a little high. But I suppose this was to accommodate the storage. The foot landing is not big enough. The back of the seat needs to be tilted a little back for comfort. Wish the battery hold a little more charge.

mouhanad a. from connellsville, pa

I have polio in the right leg and suffered left ankle fracture. So had to use a power chair till I recover. It helped me return to work quicker.

The strengths are that for the most part the chair is easy to assemble and disassemble. I love the color of my Go-Chair. The best parts of the chair is the fact that I can assemble and disassemble it by myself. I can drive it right up to the hatch of my SUV and then start loading it in piece by piece.

I gave this 3 stars for meets expectations for these reasons. The seat can feel very loose or wobbly as you are navigating the world. Sometimes the seat comes off with ease when you are disassembling the unit and other times it is a real struggle. It does take up a bit of room in a hatch of an SUV, but that can be solved with a cargo shelf or cover.
