Too big for use indoors
The lifting seat is convenient for reaching high things or for socializing in establishments with high tables perhaps. It is also good for driving to be able to see over the dashboard.
The specs say the lifting seat sits at 24” from the ground, which is true at the back of the seat; however, the front of the seat sits at 26”. So this means you cannot pull up to a dinner table or a desk. The large foot plate keeps you from being able to get close to cabinets in the kitchen, so if you’re trying to use the lifting seat for cooking, you have to put the foot plate up and let your feet dangle. The toggle for driving also makes the function of the wheelchair feel wobbly,

This chair does have a higher ground clearance.
I am really struggling with the big wheels on the front.

I have osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, 3 degenerating disks in my back, and I am bone on bone in both knees.
Don't like the seat and it rides very rough
Seems to be strong
Rides to rough and I am to far from the ground to reach things on the floor

Seat height. Ability to go higher to reach things.
Sensitive movement controller.
rose d. from yardley, pa
83 year old .The Gemini fits my needs it has one major fault. The controller is sensative, difficult to get it adjusted to less sensativaty.
Was not what I expected
Large and durable good for outdoor use
Not good for indoor use in a normal size house. Might be ok in a very large house. I had to return it.
james c h. from commerce, ga
Very nice. Had lots of features.
A chair for people having transfer problems.
The adjustable height allows easy transfer usimng a transfer pole-no more pulling yourself up from a low chair. Also the extra width of the chair accomodates a big man.
The sesitivity of the controls takes a bit of learning-many mini-crashes when in small spaces.

He is a 74 year old man who has completely lost the use of his right leg and has quite arthritic shoulders. He weighs over 325 pounds.
Very capable heavy duty chair
Capacity, speed, battery life per charge, suspension, comfort.
The casters take a bit of getting used to. There are times when you have to stop and try to realign the front casters before proceeding. The joystick is also more sensitive than I expected.

68 yr. old diabetic with partial foot amputation, facing fusion surgery, making ready for long term non- weight bearing recovery.
Seems to be a good product.
Nice ride
Can be a bit too high for a standard table or desk.

This chair is wonderful outside!
The battery system lasts longer on a charge! The seat is very comfortable.
Since I needed larger tires, I had to get a wider power wheelchair. This chair is more difficult too get through doorways and the canopy is great, but catches on door frames. If it were not for the back tip-proof wheels the entire chair would have gone completely over on my back a couple of times by now (VERY SCARY!)!
marco b. from bellingham, wa
A double amputee of a below the knee amputation & amputation on the right foot, back tothe heal!
The standard 22” wide seat makes it difficult to get around...
Ground clearance (4”) - power lift on seat.
The 22“ wide seat is too wide for most people.
rodger w. from windsor, co
I am a 78 year old man with Parkinson’s disease who recently had shoulder replacement surgery. This surgery meant that I could not use my walker.
I am pleased with my chair.
Strong and well built.
It has a sensitive joy stick.

I am 83 years having an above knee amputation on my right leg. My Gemini is just perfect for my needs. I use it to grocery shop across the street.
