Go-Chair

Small turn radius, compact yet easily and comfortably fits a w 230 lb man

Learning curve of joy stick, battery time. It seems to run out too fast.

Easy to maneuver, stability makes my granddaughter feel safe and comfortable

Manuel says battery life 13 hours. Ours has never had more than 6 or 7 even though my granddaughter shuts the chair off when she is sitting i it and not moving.

It's pretty

Too heavy to disassemble and lift for a small person. Won't fit in door ways. Too bulky

david v. from milford, pa

Too bulky for a small person to disassemble and put in a car. It's too wide for doors. The weight is too much for me a small person to pick up.

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.

Size and comfort

Not having an onboard charger with easy access cord to pull out and plug in. I need assistance to charge my chair.

mary a. from spring hill, fl

Need to use a walker at all times; my new go-chair helps a great deal getting around my home.

Everything!  I just love it.

Need instructions on removal of paint on arms from running into moldings from early on use.

henrietta m. from murfreesboro, tn

I love it. So easy to get around. I have paralysis in my arms and that pain is very much less now that I don’t have side wheels.

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.
