I got this for my husband who has lost about 75% of his mobility. He uses it to get around our home. He is quite pleased with it.
After resisting for some time, my husband agreed that his life was being limited by his decreasing ability to walk distance without pain. So, the IQ-8000 was purchased and has filled the bill. Movie theaters, airport terminals, malls, ADA-rated parks; all had been closed to us and now are on the ticket again.
The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars, the chair design would be improved with a lock mechanism when in the folded position. At 60+ lbs., it takes both of us to lift it. Trying to put the folded chair into the trunk or back seat is awkward when - unless you lift it just right, the chair will start to unfold as you are trying to move it into position.
The Comfy Go IQ-7000 is a reliable tool to increase my wife’s mobility. The chair is well made, and easy to operate . A wonderful assistant.
I purchased the Carbon Fiber lightweight chair because my husband had a stroke 3 years ago, and he is paralyzed on the right side. We had a vacation plan to the Caribbean, and the other wheelchair we purchased was too heavy for me to handle. I called this company, and from my first communication with Israel, I immediately noticed their fantastic customer service. Israel was invaluable in helping me identify my husband's needs and my own personal struggles with other wheelchairs. I needed a lightweight chair to lift and put in the back of my car without breaking my back. When you have to take the wheelchair in/out of your vehicle several times a day, having something that weighs 27 lbs was the answer to all my worries. My husband loves this chair. During our trip, driving through airports and taking walking tours, the chair performed amazingly and offered worry-free driving hours with the two lithium batteries. He drove the chair straight to the plane's door and then transferred to the aisle chair provided by the airline to get to his seat. This chair is perfect for traveling!! Once he was seated, I folded the chair, took the two batteries and the joystick, and brought them with me inside the plane to avoid damage. The airline employee then tagged the chair, took it down to the plane storage, and brought it back to us after landing. The chair is very easy to maneuver and easy to put together. I highly recommend this Carbon Fiber Electric wheelchair. It has been a lifesaver, giving my husband some independence and freedom to move on his own, and for me, it saved my back!! Thank you Comfygo!
I just recently received my wheelchair and it is nice so far. Easy and simple to use.
