Dualer Powerchair

Size and height raising.

Not well put together and needs more adaptability with ways for a disabled person to lower and raise armrests plus a way to raise and lower foot platform.

Age 61, has MS and can't walk or stand.

Light weight and stable.

No real weakness, but must charge batteries every day.

Disabled Vietnam Vet, 73 years old. Loss of use of both legs, cannot walk at all.

Like the feature that you can move the seat height up and down.

You cannot raise the footrest because it hits the shroud. Seat height is taller than I would like.

I am a 73 year old male who has had polio since age 3.

It does what the catalog ad and salesman said it would do.

When I was told that it had several large parts, I assumed they would come packaged separately.--My fault, I guess, for not asking. Assembly was somewhat imposing because the verbal instructions had poor picture explanations, and I had to guess at what parts corresponded to their names in the instructions. Next time spend an extra effort on better instructions, or have a video or web-site to better explain the assembly.

Mildred, my wife, is 84, and can't rely on just using a walker any more. She wants more independence, so we got her the powerchair

It gets me around inside and outside. I can raise and lower the chair for reaching items. Very comfortable.

None found yet.

donna m. from jerrfersonville, in

I have degenerate spine and hip disease. I used a walker for years until I could not walk without excruciating pain.

Size and the ability to rotate seat so you can go in either direction.

Could be narrower so it would have a little more clearance in standard doorways.

Loss use of both legs.

Being able to raise and lower so it can be used to eat at a counter, and getting into cabinets, and reaching items in closet. Versatility of the seat. tires not needing air. Free wheeling feature is great at times. Leather seems of good quality and should last.

The charging each night. Is there an alternative to this, maybe charging once a week or two. The mesh holders, one on each side are to low for reasonable use. Should be up on arms if possible.

She is physically handicapped and can not use manual walkers. Her movements from one place to another are dependent on her power chair.

The chair is easy to manipulate even through bedroom doors. The ability to turn the chair around and drive straight out of your position is great especially for parking in a tight place. Being able to raise the chair helps working in the kitchen or anywhere else there is a counter to be used. My husband is thrilled with his chair.

It does require some strong help to unpack and put the chair together. Raising the seat into place is particularly heavy work. The manual, especially the pictures, make the simple job of putting the chair together more difficult. We called for technical help and ended up having to have a service call to get it together right - good thing we purchased the extra warranty - but now it works great and had the manual been better we would have not had the problems.

My husband has a hard time walking and will be using the chair to get from one end of the house to the other a number of times per day.
