Olivia Bennett –
Got this for my dad and he loves how light it feels compared to his old chair. The carbon fibre frame makes it much easier for us to lift in and out of the car. Remote control feature is a nice bonus when helping him move around at home.

I needed something light enough to carry on my own, and this does the job. At 15kg, it’s manageable and easy to fold for transport. I use it daily, and it hasn’t given me any issues so far.
