Personal Opinion:
It’s a great chair that enables me to tilt back, recline, and raise one or both legs using the joystick. The armrests flip up to facilitate easy transfer, and the legrests can be easily removed.

I had the electric elevating legrests replaced with articulating ones to ensure they lengthen as they raise. Attendant control has also been added so my PAs can operate the chair if necessary.

The only drawback was the wheels spinning on uneven ground, so I had to get off-roading tyres, which helped.
