I recently bought the Phoenix because I need assistance in walking longer distances. Big box stores became impossible for me to walk to my CIDP disease.
I have ridden it around the neighborhood a few times and also went to Costco with it. It handled both jobs well and barely used any of the batteries' capacity.
The two batteries give you so much distance that I'm confident I will have much more than enough for anything I will be doing. At my current rate I will only need to charge every week or two.
It is also easier than other wheelchairs to load into a vehicle since it is so lightweight. I'm sure I will get better at loading and unloading it as time goes on. I looked at a few other chairs that were 45 to 50 lbs and I would really hate to have to load something that heavy regularly. I'm sure I would throw my back out doing that.
I am very happy with the purchase and look forward to many years of use with it.
Mijn eerste elektrische rolstoel moet alles kunnen! In huis en vooral buiten!
In huis had ik de buitenmaat van de rolstoel verwisseld met de kleine rolstoel, zodat ik niet in de badkamer kon komen ! Heel erg , maar mijn fout! Buiten rijdt hij lekker, maar de belofte , dat hij kleine oneffenheden op de weg goed aankan, vind ik niet juist. Op hard aangewalsd grind gaat het redelijk , maar op vers gelegd grind raakt hij in slip , en anderen moesten miij weer vlot maken. Misschien is het nog te vroeg om commentaar te geven , en geef ik over een week toch 5 sterren.
I came to the Abilities Expo in Ft Lauderdale for the express purpose to solve a problem and Comfy go came to the rescue.
I already have a "lightweight" chair that I've been using for several years. In the last 6 months I've fallen 3 times lifting in or out of my vehicle. 50lbs just wasn't lightweight enough.
After many laps through the expo hall I found Comfygo. The staff were delightful and led me to this ultra lightweight chair.
It is perfect, lightweight but still very powerful and stable. It is exactly what I needed.
Saved me about 70k, I didn't have to buy an accessible vehicle.
Thanks guys, you were great.
Once I received my Glide Care G-5 my feet have thanked me! It keeps me from having to walk very much. I use it for all my appointments. I love the turning radius. Since our mower has a joystick, this was easy to drive/move around various obstacles and people. I just wish I had a cupholder and cellphone holder. I thank the company in Louisiana for getting me started!! Many thanks to this company Glide Care for the lightweight electric wheelchair!! People love it!!!
