So far I have tried a permobile and an Invacare storm. I like both of them, but my vendor told me that for permobiles are sometimes not as reliable as Invacare. He said that Invacares are the leaders in power wheelchairs. According to him permobile and quickie are still playing catch-up. It�s not that I don�t trust him; I just want a more influential point of view and they figured a little input from all of you guys would help me out. For all I know he could be getting a kickback from Invacare. Nyree

good and what's bad)?
Manufacturers change with each production year. So do
their products which includes wheelchairs. Someone may design a
cheaper part on a successful production chair and mess up a beautiful
thing. So remember that only Big Mac's stay the same from one side
of the country to the other. Wheelchairs vary. Know what you
are getting a try one out before you make the plunge. Best Wishes and Happy

<< Hello everybody,I know I don't commune with you guys
very often, mostly because my schoolwork is very demanding and I find that
the discussion group combined with school is overwhelming. But, I
have a question for you all. I'm supposed to be getting a new
wheelchair and I was wondering if switching from an Invacare would be
appropriate. Currently I had an Invacare Rangers x storm
series. Different people have suggested that I get either a quickie
or a permobile. I just don't know which way to go. I haven't
had any trouble with my Invacare, but if there is a better power chair out
there please let me know.
