Personal Opinion:
It’s a practical powered wheelchair, as it can fit in a car boot so is good for shopping.
However, the chair itself is not very comfortable to sit in for a prolonged time. It also struggles to navigate curbs and any ‘lips’ to go up. Although it can go across dry mud and uneven ground, you will just feel all of the bumps which is uncomfortable. Finally, the battery does not last very long.
