Jazzy Carbon

Very comfortable and easy to set-up. Folding makes it easy to transport, while lifting arms makes for access to adjacent structures.

Slow setting is too robust. Does not brake on demand, making learning to steer difficult. No sense of control.

The Carbon is not only very light lightweight, it is also very easy to fold up and stow in the back of my car and pickup.

Out of four other power wheelchairs I have had, and currently have, this is the worst joy stick controller I have encountered.  Sometimes the brakes are too jerky and at other times it will coast before stopping.  It often takes time to accelerate and occasionally turning is a wait and see type of game.

I’m a 66 year old male who has a neurological disability and have been using wheelchairs for years 14 years.

Easy to lift in and out of car.  Easy to fold and unfold.

Foot rest could be longer so feet could be wider apart.

Age 80, have MS and can't walk well, also have balance issues. Needed something that would get me around.

High quality. Easy to manage and use. Light enough for me to lift.

It would be nice to have a beverage holder made for this chair.

I'm in my late 60s. Due to my back, I can no longer stand for more than 10" at any given time. I can also no longer walk for any great distance.

The Jazzy powerchair has made it where he takes his dogs out for walks and enjoys the outdoors with his family and friends. We have a loan closest for our patients who need special equipment like powerchairs. The day he came out to pick up the Jazzy powerchair from our loan closest. Wish you could have seen his face. He had the biggest smile I had ever seen. With ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) a lot of our patients start to loss their ability to walk, talk, and speak. The ALS patients start needing help with the independent living skills.

dawn n. from las vegas, nv (caregiver)

We purchased two chairs for our ALS loan closet here in Nevada.

Strengths are, easy foldable, light weight, user friendly, excellent quality. Using this chair makes my husband feel like he has regained his independence.

At this time, only owning the chair for a month, cannot describe any weakness.

andrea r. from waterbury, ct (caregiver)

My husband is not capable of walking long distances, that is why we purchased the Jazzy Carbon Folding Power Wheelchair.

Lightweight at about 43 lbs High quality with excellent finish Relatively easy to use after some practice operating the joystick controller Good battery life and would get a 2nd battery Able to disengage motor to allow manual pushing by caregiver if needed Very tight turning radius especially useful in tight spaces such as inside the house

Needs a closure fastener which would make easier to lift and carry without the need to make certain doesn’t open Doesn’t climb well unless on the sidewalk or similar firm surface Not good on grass  Could use a rear foot bar to step on when manually pushing to allow raising front wheels to get over a raised surface such as some door thresholds
