Yes, and they said it would take longer to get the chair. Nicki

They were halted for a couple years, so I waited but they are at least in operation now. Julie From: Nichole Rohling [mailto:zoocr...@windstream.net] Sent: Monday, June 19, 2017 12:40 PM To: quad-list@eskimo.com Subject: [QUAD-L] New Chair Need your opinions and input please I have been injured almost 19 years (Thought it was 20 but I was wrong) and I am getting ready to get a new chair. This will be my 3rd chair and and my 1st two were Invacare Action Arrow Storms. They are no longer making this chair L I hate change! I went to an evaluation appointment and was told the chair I want (Invacare Torque 3) is considered a Group 4 chair And it would be difficult to get. They recommended a Permobil C350 or Quantum Rival. They told me that an Invacare plant had been shut down by the FDA ( I think that’s right) and their concern is if I got the Invacare they might quit making parts for it. I feel they probably make more $$ off the other two chairs (I just really have trust issues with them) . I have had incredible luck with my Invacare chairs, obviously since 2 have lasted 19 years. What would you recommend? Nicki
