Personal Opinion:
This chair can be adapted in so many ways and there are lots of different features that can be added onto it at a later date. However certain features like lying completely flat are only available on the Ergo version, which is sadly £7000 more than this chair.

I enjoy the comfort of the spider trac suspension and the fact it can handle uneven terrain. The gyro control is also a great feature as it makes the chair easier to control.

The chair is narrow so can fit through regular doors and also has a smallish turning circle.

The chair cannot be dismantled to fit into a small car. The chair is very heavy. It is crashed tested so can be used in a vehicle.

I don’t like the fact that to get the feature that allows you to raise the seat and go at regular speed would make the chair double the price. It can be quite inconvenient to have to crawl along when chair is raised.

The main drawback of this chair are the cost. It does come at different prices, the Pro which I have, starts at £7000. The next one up, the Ergo, starts at £14,000 and the UP starts at £21,500.
