Hi,
I am planning to buy a power wheelchair after my new work insurance becomes available on January. So, shall we talk about power wheelchair you have experienced?
First of all, I am C5/6 complete.
Currently, I have a Quantum 6000Z and this chair is about 7 years old. Although the chair is old, I have used it once or twice a week until March, 2015. So, my total driving distance is about 2000 miles. My powerchair has tilting and power leg rest features.
What I don't like are
1. middle driving wheel: Provide small turning radius, but I feel much shock on a small uneven surface.
2. Had to replace casters 3 ~4 times: bearing worn out easily.
3. Lubrication leaked from a gear box to electric coils box which is located at a back side of mechanical gear.
4. 6" caster seems small. I would like to have 7" or bigger.
I am thinking about ordering a front wheel driving Permobile power wheelchair, but the price would be a concern. ( I may not need to, but I feel sorry to my company....)
I would like to have tilting, power leg rest, and seat elevation features. Reclining will be nice to have....
Would you share your experience with your power wheelchair? Also, any feedback will be very helpful.
