Hello,
My mom is disabled and no longer able to walk due to health problems. Being that she is now wheelchair bound, we are looking into getting her a power chair. (electronic wheelchair) Do any of you have any suggestions on what is good? What to stay clear of? Things to look for? This is all new to us and we are a little overwhelmed with the options. Thanks :) Posted on 08/24/09, 07:08 pm |

hello, while I am not an authority on wheelchairs I do know a little. There are many styles available, if you are purchasing new, locate a local and reputable source, they should be able to advise you accordingly. If buying used you can often find them on craigslist if you have that. One thing that may be important will be a "center wheel drive" this allows for a very hi degree of mobility with a joystick conrol. best of luck.
