LiteRider Envy LT & Envy

The chair is not for me. I feel I'm going to slide out of it. Needed a seat belt. It has a lot of power.

No weakness of the chair. It's just me scare of it. A brand new chair I rode only in my apartment. We have to try to sell.

Easy to maneuver. Turns on a dime. Easy to charge battery. Compact. Fits nicely in small apartment. Gives great independence compared to manual wheelchairs. Saves time and strength going places. Makes a person feel like part of the human race and not so isolated.

The only complaint was that the seat was too hard. Bought a gel foam cushion from Spin Life. Problem solved! No more complaints!

My brother is very pleased with his new wheelchair. It gives him lots of freedom in the large assisted living facility. Needed a cushion for the seat.

Ease of joystick use and maneuverability. Disassembles easily to load into our hybrid Toyota Prius. Also, long battery life and ease of recharging.

My main complaint is that the footrest is simply TOO LONG. It could be 4-5" shorter while still comfortable, and would make the chair easier to navigate through the home. A minor issue that makes daily use somewhat inconvenient, is finding a place to put a cup holder. Armrests that flip up prevent mounting most commercially available cupholders, and finding a secure position elsewhere is a challenge. The same applies to finding a handy place for a cellphone.

I am 71 years old, with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Walking at home is more difficult, so the LR Envy is a huge help, plus I am taking it elsewhere

Turn radius with shorter wheel base

The seat is short in length.

Small size and turn radius is very good compared with other products considered. For small houses such as ours, it would be better to have a tighter turn radius and shorter over all length to enable 90 degree turns from rooms to hallways.

Turn radius and overall length. An elevated seat feature would be ideal to enable kitchen work, which is limited due to fixed seat height.

User is a 67 year old wheelchair bound female. This chair was selected because it is small enough to navigate around the house.

Solid construction, good battery endurance, efficient turning radius.

The standard seat is actually superior with regard to comfort. To avoid removing the heavy battery just to charge it, plug the charger into the receptacle on the armrest beneath the joystick.

The different speeds.

The seat is not deep enough and the seat belt is not long enough.

candice v. from kalamazoo, mi (caregiver)

Was told it would make tight turns into the bathroom, it does not. The user of the chair is a large women and the seatbelt is not big enough.

good design,easy to operate

foot support is difficult to raise or lower. lever to engage or disengage the free roll somewhat difficult to use.

86 yr old woman with bad knees

Compact, fits through the doorways of my home, ease of use, battery lasts long after one charge

Seat is wobbly, wish the back was a little higher, don't try to bend over to pick something up off the floor while in the wheelchair, will tip over. Don't recommend going up hill or down hill, not stable. Going over flat, smooth surface is fine.
