Personal Opinion:
This is my daughter Suzanne, who has a rare condition called Lissencephaly and needs full support in her wheelchair.

The benefits of using this wheelchair include that it’s very easy to push via powered attendant controls. It tilts back, providing excellent seating that maintains good posture, and features a brilliant rollercoaster headrest that offers strong support. Additionally, the batteries are easy to recharge and last a long time.

The drawbacks include that you cannot hang bags on it, but I can attach her suction machine since she needs it all the time. Also, I cannot find a waterproof hood that can be clipped on to protect her head from wind and rain. However, I love the Bundlebean Cosy, which is a flamingo fleece blanket with a waterproof lining. It covers the entire chair, which is brilliant.

I really love the chair because it provides fantastic support for my daughter. It has also made a massive difference for me, as I used to have to push my daughter manually, but the powered attendant control has changed that. It took some time to get used to it, particularly when switching from a manual wheelchair to this powered one, but now I find it very easy. Overall, I would recommend this wheelchair; it does everything I need for my daughter, has made our daily lives much easier, and the chair itself looks really good.
