The best one I liked the most was the one with the tracks that allow the user to take it up stairs. That opens an awful lot of doors for a disabled person. Have no idea what was so great about no.9 though?
My new Q-700M will be under my butt in about a week. Mines everything except vertical. It's one badass chair. I've been in a Quickie Pulse 6 for the last 5 years, crap Jazzy Select previous 5.
You'll love it! Stay out of the water though, and call sunrise medical and ask if your PWC will come programmed to stop if the joystick is held in the same position for 60-90 seconds. A safety feature that should be, can be programmed to stop happening. My first week was a nightmare for this reason! Great afterward.
My quick q-500 with tilt, recline, elevating leg rest and lift, will be delivered tomorrow. I can't wait. I have a pride fusion at the moment two years old had nothing but problems with it. HOwever the deterioration of my condition in that two years now calls for something specialised and custom built. Make all the difference to my quality of life and independance as I am sure you understand, yourself. I trialled 3 different ones before deciding.. 2 sunrise medicals and a quantum edge. The quantum was crap.
@@DJOsocialOnline I'm happy for you Deejay! Remember this - any issues whatsoever, even two plus years down the road, Sunrise Medical (Quickie mnfctr) are but a call away, and they have sales reps all-over USA...any issues, call 'em! They've come through in a big way RE; the wire/ cable to the paddle-switch joystick with the 3.5" color-display R-Net joystick as my '18 qm710 stopped working, preceded by three warning codes that the joystick(s) flashed.

Took delivery of my Sunrise Medical Q-500 on Wednesday. Power elevating foot plate, power recline and tilt and it lifts me 12 inches in the air so I can reach things living alone. It's a bad-ass chair for sure. WE have a scheme in the UK called motability. Where when there is a medical need you can lease a power chair (or a car) for 3 or 5 years and the insurance covers all repairs. You basically pay for the cost of the chiar over tthe lease period. You never own it but it's an affordable way to be able to get what we need. You can't get a chair with more than you medically need because the scheme is govt run. It's taking a quarter of my income however it will allow me to keep living independantly and possibly save my spine from complete devastation by being able to stay off my feet in my flat as it's small enough to get around everywhere. IMHO and listening to my dealer too, Sunrise Medical is hard to beat. My manul chair was a Quickie custom built, and in the ten eyars I had it it never needed a repair. Power chair for me was something I never wanted but I can't use my hands to do much with any longer, so it became something I had no choice over.
Wheelchair designers must think of the difficulties disabiled people may have. Not everyone is stable, and not have difficulty even to get into a wheelchair. The foot rest in the majority of designs are in the way which makes it difficult and unsafe for the user. They need to be assisted to get into the seat as the foot rest usually protrudes out. It should be retractable and I can only so far find one which has this but is a new model and is very expense. I know there are other manual wheelchairs with foot rest which can be flipped to the side, but we are talking about electric models. Please can someone take note and start thinking of disabled people who generally have weaker and unstable legs. Thanks.
You would think they would design around the people who use a a wheelchair not the people who don’t. Easy on and off, places to grab, seats that don’t destroy your butt after sitting. on them for an hour. High maneuvering and off road capabilities. Low weight with long battery life and able to take a hit with out shattering. Definitely water proof for easy cleaning.
I do not have a choice. Make sure if u get a chair, ensure it has as many capabilities as u can afford. Otherwise I found I needed different chairs for different terrains. J.
I just got the Magic Mobility X8 Extreme 4x4 chair. I live at the beach so this gives me the maximum mobility outdoors. My regular chair is a MWD level with great indoor and street use. Between the 2 chairs I have the most freedom of movement I've had in my life. The steering of the 4x4 takes getting used to, especially going backwards.

Is that what's actually going on here? It seems to me being disabled is not a requirement for recognizing excellence in a w/c. Also, there were disabled people in this video....so I guess I don't see a prob.
@@Bix12 The person who put this video together has little idea that these products are for very different usage scenarios. You have got: * off-road outdoor chairs (the Magic Mobility X8), which are useless indoors as they are nothing like maneovurable enough * high-end modular outdoor-indoor chairs that can be configured for practically any need, but are at the upper end of the price range (Quickie QM7 - which in Europe at least has now been superseded by the Quickie Q700, Quantum Edge 3.0, Invacare TDX SP2) * indoor focused chairs that are towards the lower end of the price range and likely lack the seating options needed for more disabled users (Pride Jazzy Air 2, Golden Literider Envy) * supposed go-anywhere solutions that, in practice, are outrageously expensive and may not work as well as the manufacturer's promo video (Scewo Bro) - I wouldn't want to trust the stair climbing system, as if you fail to make it all the way you're trapped, plus if the system fails whilst on stairs (even if just by one track losing grip) then it could result in loss of life. I've been dropped down two stairs in a wheelchair with near fatal results. * a high speed outdoor personal mobility aid that is legal in the Netherlands but does not qualify as a powerchair or mobility scooter under the law of most countries (Scoozy) * systems that have clearly had a lot of design input, but which are difficult to relate to the everyday mobility needs of disabled people (the Whill seems to be "bike share meets wheelchair", whilst the Delta Autour looks highly impractical in practice). Of all these, the Delta is the one that seems the most ridiculous. All that bright white plastic is soon going get scuffed up and cracked from narrow doorways, lifts and everyday wear and tear. 3.2mph makes this a slow chair - it's really indoor focused. Having the power button and speed controls on one arm rest with the joystick on the other isn't intuitive, doesn't allow for easy reconfiguration based on the preferred hand of the user and doesn't deal at all with a user who lacks full use of both hands. The model in the video seems to have full upper body function, but even she struggles with the clumsy tilt-up arms. If you are relying on your arms to support you whilst sitting, you don't want them fully tilted away at a table or desk - it's more normal to have a flip back controller for this scenario. I very much doubt any disabled person would put that handbag in that location - it would be far too easy for a strap to get snagged and go through the wheels or just get caught on something. For an indoor focused chair, it's long and not therefore very manoeuvrable - contrast it with the Golden which has a very compact base. I can't see how you can call this a top ten of electric wheelchairs. It's ten manufacturer promo videos of products that are in no way comparable with each other, put together by someone who seemingly doesn't understand these subtleties. You could, for example, configure a Quickie QM7 (or Q700, the replacement model) for any user who doesn't need a standing function in their chair (there is a standing version, the Q700 UP), but you couldn't configure a Golden LiteRider for someone with limited to no upper body strength. What isn't here at all is the kind of chair that the majority of powerchair users use, which is the bracket between chairs like the Golden Literider Envy and chairs like the Quickie. These chairs are lighter and cheaper than the Quickie, but have much better outdoor performance than the Golden. Whilst there is always a place for innovation in wheelchairs, what matters most is safety, fitness for purpose (both user and environment), robustness and reliability.
I bought two nice wheelchairs for my wife and I (both 78 years old), In most of the reviews on Amazon, everyone seemed to think it was not a problem, to pick up 56 lbs folded chair and simply put in the trunk of our car. (5 years ago, maybe?) Has anyone come up with a means of getting your chair in the trunk without killing your self. If anyone out there is willing nti give me some ideas on how to load and unload your wheelchair from your car trunk... Any help, Thank You.

whoever said these are top 10 chairs have not bothered to even speak to many disabled people as all of these are for diffrent situations and really only 2 are a all in one type and thats tdx and ilevel from pride but even then the makers wont listen to us who are in chairs full time or 90% of the time..
Likewise. I am obese, due to Parkinson's and a very bad, arthritic back, when you are virtually immobile, it's impossible to exercise. For my weight class, even basic power chairs start around $7000 with no bells and whistles. I am a relatively tall man at 6'3", but weigh in at 485lbs. My goal if at all possible is to get a chair with a 600lb rating so as not to shorten the life of the motor due to over-stress. Not to mention seat size and length between seat and footrest; I have long legs that I can only lift a few inches of the floor. These start at about $8500 and increase from there.

I have recently trialled a Quantum Edge and found it just dreadful. Poor battery, it wobbled to the extreme that with poor hand control I felt unsafe, poor performance. Ended up ordering a Sunrise MEDICAL Q500 which outperformed it at every turn.
@@williambayh1574 Curious if you extend that warming to Pride power chairs too? Since they are the same company. My first power chair was a Pride and I had nothing but trouble with it.
@@DJOsocialOnline I'm aware that Quantum and Pride PWC's are manufactured by the same Company. And, both PWC's are junk regardless the model. Though, post injury accidents (c4,5,6 sci originally - 1980) have confined me to loaded PWC's for the last twenty years; I bought a used M51 Pride to resell - it was junk, I sold it for what I paid $200. Lol
I'm on the other end. I have a cheap Jazzy and an Edge3 and haven't had a bit of trouble with either one. I'll be getting a new Quicky in a couple months and I only hope it holds up as well as the Pride machines did. I would have been happy to get another Quantum but the insurance company said Quicky is what is available now.@@williambayh1574
www.magicmobility.com.au/ there are many different prices, depending on what you choose. they are an Australian company - they might even help you with the cost. contact them using the address i provided. good luck!
Hii all the wheelchairs are awesome. But I just need you guys to think a little more cuz there are people who are disabled upto 90% or more. Such people cannot climb up the chair. So I request you to consider making a wheelchair with hydraulic system which enables to person like me who cannot climb up without an escort can sit down on the chair and the hydraulic system helps to get up and then we can go outside live our life. If any of you guys make such kind of wheelchair please let me know. I am eager to see the world outside on my own.. please consider my request
I suggest you consider a 'Sure Hands' lift. I have one by my bed, one by the bathtub. My daily PWC (Quickie Q700 M) has an elevator that makes transferring into hotel beds easier with a transfer board.
These chairs are cool & utilize technology but, I think they are out of reach for a lot of disabled people. Your typical disability person doesn't have the resources for a wheelchair that cost as much as a nice new or used car. Also, most chairs on the list are very heavy. It's very difficult to carry a heavy wheelchair with around with you. It also requires extra equipment & help to move it around. I opted for a lightweight portable power chair. Insurance didn't cover it.
I beg to disagree. You are correct about the prices being way up there but when you get to the specialised chair stage it's because there is a need and it is an absolute neccessity in many cases at least. It is taking a quarter of my income every month to pay for it, believe me if another option I would not be having one liek that
@@Bix12 I have known disabled people be able to lift up a heavy chair (around 56 pounds in weight) and put it in the boot/trunk of thier car. Their disability was legit. Spina bifida. Don't judge books by their covers. :-)
@@DJOsocialOnline as a disabled person confined to a wheelchair, i believe i can speak with a bit more authority....however, i'm not doubting you, i'm just wondering what percentage of us do you think can toss around a 56 pound wheelchair? It's almost like not being physically impacted at all...
@@Bix12 I am a full time wheelchair user myself. And I have seen i up close and personal with people who have different disabilities to me. What does percentage have to do with it?
I’m having some health issues with my joints, but we had a family trip planned for New York City. This ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxuxJwamLFanm476LC5WPeTouyyU1GXomC was perfect! It’s lightweight enough that my friend could carry it up or down stairs when we needed to. (I can walk very short distances) It was comfortable for me to sit in, I would say if you’re super tall it might be a little cramped. I’m 5’1” and the foot rests were the perfect height. This may not be the best one for long term use, you get what you pay for, but for something that fits our budget that gives me accessibility while we deal with my health this was amazing.
@@rebekahlovitt9540 that means your wheelchair was ridiculously overpriced. So is the 37,000 dollar one. Mobility aides and other medical necessities should be completely covered by the goverment like it is in countries with a healthcare system.
@@rebekahlovitt9540 US Durable Medical Equipment bills are massive inflated by the system. Comparing the price of a Quickie wheelchair in the US and the nearest equivalent Quickie in the UK is eye-opening.
Do wheelchair companies actually get feedback from disabled people? I find most are lacking in many ways, such as we can't reach counter tops when in one. They're heavy, can't reach shelves in stores. The few that may address these issues are way out of reach price wise.
In america, disabled people can't even save more than a few thousand dollars or get married or our income is taken away. Imagine being rich enough for any of these. Also a majority of them wouldn't even work practically, and at least one is not legally considered a mobility aide and therefore you can't take it on aircrafts.
You forgot permobil. They make better wheelchairs then everyone on this list. There's nothing more reliable than a permobil F5 or a permobil M3. My permobil M3 can outrun any of these wheelchairs
Per Mobil sucks! Returned mine to the company that sold it to my insurance company. It literally started falling apart immediately. Plastic add ons that just clipped on fell off. The part that was attached to the main control panel that raised the legs, elevated the whole chair base, etc fell off and was hanging by the wires. Yes, it was fast, but very jerky and difficult for even a long time power chair user to operate. It's footprint was much larger than my old Quantum, which was my biggest complaint. Long story short, that company had to take it back, return the nearly 40K to my insurance company and repay me the $1,500 that was my out of pocket expense that wasn't covered by insurance for the lift feature (which by the way was the only good thing about it).
@@vickiestapleton4419 I was just at a wheelchair evaluation last week. My last and current chair has the seat lift and I to had to pay for that part because the insurance wouldn't cover it but now Medicare has changed that rule and the new one will come with the seat lift at no added expense. My only concern is that it's going to be a quicky this time. They seem to be good machines but like everything else, I won't know until I get it.
This is falls advertisement. These chairs actually don’t drive like this. When you elevate your chair, the speed degreases tremendously. My normal speed is 6mph, but as soon as I elevate it decreases to 1 and even .5mph. It’s very impractical for walking around with someone at a normal speed. The other thing is these prices are false. If you bought these chairs with your own money, you might pay a maximum of 35k, but for people who need insurance because this is a medical device that will need maintenance, the price gets jacked up. My first chair was 50k and the chair I have now was 80k.
Not saying you should do this but usually there is an exposed contact switch somewhere under the seat or as part of the lift system which if you bypass or disable (can be done using a plastic cable tie to keep the switch permanently closed) you can then travel at normal speed while seat is elevated. I did this on a Quickie salsa m2 to disable both the lift and tilt speed restrictions. You can also bypass the controller and wire a switch directly to the actuator so you can lift and drive at the same time as many chairs don’t allow this.
Several of the USA power wheelchairs with elevators can drive up to 4mph in it's highest position, such as the Quantum. Quickie, Permobil and Invacare models.
Key factors: battery range, reliability (= simplicity, not too many sensors, no undersized components, reliable electronics), robustness and outdoor use (large wheels, elevating seat option for shopping or attending events, standing for patients who can, for example for restrooms). Everything else is a marketing lie. The American market is terrible for wheelchairs. Twenty years ago, we had more choices in Europe. It's nothing but a shame.
Awesome tech but very expensive & the lack of any utility value built into the wheelchair make this a very impractical machine! For that reason I would never consider buying one of these!😩

Other than using a ramp on a van with fold-away seats or with the back 2 seats removed, I don't see how you'd be able to get them in a trunk
where I can order the scoozy wheelchair?
Saludos desde Honduras 🇭🇳 me encantan sus productos me llamo julio César Salguero que tengan un lindo día

Hello! who is Permobil?
They are a Swedish power wheelchair manufacturer that does sell their products to many continents.
Hi. Could you send me more info about de scoozy? It cost U$S 2771? Really??
Que cuesta la silla
No. 7 is a Jazzy Air by Pride Mobility
whoever said these are top 10 chairs have not bothered to even speak to many disabled people as all of these are for diffrent situations and really only 2 are a all in one type and thats tdx and ilevel from pride but even then the makers wont listen to us who are in chairs full time or 90% of the time..
I am handicapped and poor, I want one like her
Likewise. I am obese, due to Parkinson's and a very bad, arthritic back, when you are virtually immobile, it's impossible to exercise. For my weight class, even basic power chairs start around $7000 with no bells and whistles. I am a relatively tall man at 6'3", but weigh in at 485lbs. My goal if at all possible is to get a chair with a 600lb rating so as not to shorten the life of the motor due to over-stress. Not to mention seat size and length between seat and footrest; I have long legs that I can only lift a few inches of the floor. These start at about $8500 and increase from there.
@@jeivens1964: Sorry to hear about your physical condition, man. I hope you get that powerchair that you were describing about soon.🖒
@@jeivens1964 I would approach disabilitiy charities see if they can help you financially or provide you with the chair you need in full.
@@jeivens1964 there are power wheelchairs for the bariatric client that can be funded by Medicare if you live in the USA.
Why do we have crappy ones in Australia?
Cause it is too expensive to ship all the good ones from OS for such a (comparatively) small market I guess.
I need a one wheel chair please i'am marocain
You should have had the Omeo....used to be called the OGO.
Yup. I've seen their videos. I wonder why they changed their name, though.

How did Whill get on this list when it is not considered by insurance companies or DME's as a 'wheelchair'?
I have recently trialled a Quantum Edge and found it just dreadful. Poor battery, it wobbled to the extreme that with poor hand control I felt unsafe, poor performance. Ended up ordering a Sunrise MEDICAL Q500 which outperformed it at every turn.
You chose wisely! I have a q700 m for two years now - both are great chairs. RUN, WALK, OR ROLL AWAY FROM QUANTUM PWC's!
@@williambayh1574 Curious if you extend that warming to Pride power chairs too? Since they are the same company. My first power chair was a Pride and I had nothing but trouble with it.
@@DJOsocialOnline I'm aware that Quantum and Pride PWC's are manufactured by the same Company. And, both PWC's are junk regardless the model. Though, post injury accidents (c4,5,6 sci originally - 1980) have confined me to loaded PWC's for the last twenty years; I bought a used M51 Pride to resell - it was junk, I sold it for what I paid $200. Lol
I'm on the other end. I have a cheap Jazzy and an Edge3 and haven't had a bit of trouble with either one. I'll be getting a new Quicky in a couple months and I only hope it holds up as well as the Pride machines did. I would have been happy to get another Quantum but the insurance company said Quicky is what is available now.@@williambayh1574
Address please sir
Everybody like it, loves it but not everybody are rich to get one.
Hello! How many dollars is the No. 10 wheelchair? Can it be shipped to Beijing?
www.magicmobility.com.au/ there are many different prices, depending on what you choose. they are an Australian company - they might even help you with the cost. contact them using the address i provided. good luck!
How is #9 only $2,000?
I have prayed to God for a mobility scooter I hope my God will provide me with one as my walking any distance is getting very difficult
Me too
Hii all the wheelchairs are awesome. But I just need you guys to think a little more cuz there are people who are disabled upto 90% or more. Such people cannot climb up the chair. So I request you to consider making a wheelchair with hydraulic system which enables to person like me who cannot climb up without an escort can sit down on the chair and the hydraulic system helps to get up and then we can go outside live our life. If any of you guys make such kind of wheelchair please let me know. I am eager to see the world outside on my own.. please consider my request
I suggest you consider a 'Sure Hands' lift. I have one by my bed, one by the bathtub. My daily PWC (Quickie Q700 M) has an elevator that makes transferring into hotel beds easier with a transfer board.
Most of these at least the sides lift away so it's fairly easy to transfer just like it would be for a manual chair.
These chairs are cool & utilize technology but, I think they are out of reach for a lot of disabled people. Your typical disability person doesn't have the resources for a wheelchair that cost as much as a nice new or used car.
Also, most chairs on the list are very heavy. It's very difficult to carry a heavy wheelchair with around with you. It also requires extra equipment & help to move it around.
I opted for a lightweight portable power chair. Insurance didn't cover it.
How can a disabled person carry any wheelchair around with them - regardless of weight? Shouldn't the chair be carrying them around instead?
I beg to disagree. You are correct about the prices being way up there but when you get to the specialised chair stage it's because there is a need and it is an absolute neccessity in many cases at least. It is taking a quarter of my income every month to pay for it, believe me if another option I would not be having one liek that
@@Bix12 I have known disabled people be able to lift up a heavy chair (around 56 pounds in weight) and put it in the boot/trunk of thier car. Their disability was legit. Spina bifida. Don't judge books by their covers. :-)
@@DJOsocialOnline as a disabled person confined to a wheelchair, i believe i can speak with a bit more authority....however, i'm not doubting you, i'm just wondering what percentage of us do you think can toss around a 56 pound wheelchair? It's almost like not being physically impacted at all...
@@Bix12 I am a full time wheelchair user myself. And I have seen i up close and personal with people who have different disabilities to me. What does percentage have to do with it?
Thanks Allah (god) for everything you gave it to me. 🤲🤲🤲
3:56: The coach in an electric wheelchair does not motivate the athlete enough, so it is better to switch to an active wheelchair.
Do you you mean a self propelling wheelchair? Not everyone can use them.
This is the third wheelchair that shows going upstairs and not one of them shows going downstairs. One has to wonder why!!
Scoozy, $2771 really? I checked out these last week and they were about 3.5x that in £
Muy hermosa silla pero no podría comprarla ni en 20 años
I’m having some health issues with my joints, but we had a family trip planned for New York City. This ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxuxJwamLFanm476LC5WPeTouyyU1GXomC was perfect! It’s lightweight enough that my friend could carry it up or down stairs when we needed to. (I can walk very short distances) It was comfortable for me to sit in, I would say if you’re super tall it might be a little cramped. I’m 5’1” and the foot rests were the perfect height. This may not be the best one for long term use, you get what you pay for, but for something that fits our budget that gives me accessibility while we deal with my health this was amazing.
Yes they are
These "prices" are a load of BS
Nice products. But I don't have money to buy, can you please help me for one for free?
the scewo is amazing but 37.000 dollars is a lot.
kader mika it really isn’t. My chair was $80,000, and it doesn’t do any of that stuff.
@@rebekahlovitt9540 that means your wheelchair was ridiculously overpriced. So is the 37,000 dollar one. Mobility aides and other medical necessities should be completely covered by the goverment like it is in countries with a healthcare system.
@@pippinlatham4857 What does being covered have to do with the price. My daughters wheelchair was covered but the vendor still received $57,000.
@@rebekahlovitt9540 US Durable Medical Equipment bills are massive inflated by the system. Comparing the price of a Quickie wheelchair in the US and the nearest equivalent Quickie in the UK is eye-opening.
@@muyfelices the OP of this thread said "37.000 dollars is a lot". Meaning they were paying for it themselves.
I've seen painters wear white coats .
Do wheelchair companies actually get feedback from disabled people? I find most are lacking in many ways, such as we can't reach counter tops when in one. They're heavy, can't reach shelves in stores. The few that may address these issues are way out of reach price wise.
It has no head rest

#3 is outrageously priced. $37,000. I didn't see enough to justify that tag.
Scott Miskowiak that’s outrageous could buy a car for that
This price with ridiculous 31Ah batteries.

In america, disabled people can't even save more than a few thousand dollars or get married or our income is taken away.
Imagine being rich enough for any of these.
Also a majority of them wouldn't even work practically, and at least one is not legally considered a mobility aide and therefore you can't take it on aircrafts.
पैसा कितना है
You forgot permobil. They make better wheelchairs then everyone on this list. There's nothing more reliable than a permobil F5 or a permobil M3. My permobil M3 can outrun any of these wheelchairs
Per Mobil sucks! Returned mine to the company that sold it to my insurance company. It literally started falling apart immediately. Plastic add ons that just clipped on fell off. The part that was attached to the main control panel that raised the legs, elevated the whole chair base, etc fell off and was hanging by the wires. Yes, it was fast, but very jerky and difficult for even a long time power chair user to operate. It's footprint was much larger than my old Quantum, which was my biggest complaint. Long story short, that company had to take it back, return the nearly 40K to my insurance company and repay me the $1,500 that was my out of pocket expense that wasn't covered by insurance for the lift feature (which by the way was the only good thing about it).
Thanks for info, CORPUS F5 is a standing wheelchair. I have made a compilation video at the following link:
ua-cam.com/video/F0GFv2QOm6U/v-deo.html
@@vickiestapleton4419 I was just at a wheelchair evaluation last week. My last and current chair has the seat lift and I to had to pay for that part because the insurance wouldn't cover it but now Medicare has changed that rule and the new one will come with the seat lift at no added expense. My only concern is that it's going to be a quicky this time. They seem to be good machines but like everything else, I won't know until I get it.
This is falls advertisement. These chairs actually don’t drive like this. When you elevate your chair, the speed degreases tremendously. My normal speed is 6mph, but as soon as I elevate it decreases to 1 and even .5mph. It’s very impractical for walking around with someone at a normal speed. The other thing is these prices are false. If you bought these chairs with your own money, you might pay a maximum of 35k, but for people who need insurance because this is a medical device that will need maintenance, the price gets jacked up. My first chair was 50k and the chair I have now was 80k.
Not saying you should do this but usually there is an exposed contact switch somewhere under the seat or as part of the lift system which if you bypass or disable (can be done using a plastic cable tie to keep the switch permanently closed) you can then travel at normal speed while seat is elevated. I did this on a Quickie salsa m2 to disable both the lift and tilt speed restrictions. You can also bypass the controller and wire a switch directly to the actuator so you can lift and drive at the same time as many chairs don’t allow this.
Several of the USA power wheelchairs with elevators can drive up to 4mph in it's highest position, such as the Quantum. Quickie, Permobil and Invacare models.
@@paul-ld9vh I just know that my chair normally drives 7mph at it’s normal speed, but when it elevates it drops severally to 2mph.
$2500 to 3500
Difficult to understand......
Key factors: battery range, reliability (= simplicity, not too many sensors, no undersized components, reliable electronics), robustness and outdoor use (large wheels, elevating seat option for shopping or attending events, standing for patients who can, for example for restrooms). Everything else is a marketing lie. The American market is terrible for wheelchairs. Twenty years ago, we had more choices in Europe. It's nothing but a shame.
X8 BUT THATS TOO SIMPLE
Damn that's expensive, I rather make a electric wheelchair from a $100 hoverboard
Awesome tech but very expensive & the lack of any utility value built into the wheelchair make this a very impractical machine! For that reason I would never consider buying one of these!😩
