I agree with Pam. I also have the Hugo, and think I paid about $100 for it at Sam's Club. It's great, as I can carry things around the house with me. I can function so much better now that I have it. I have found so many uses for it. I can set the table with it, clear the table, and sit while I cook. I load it up with things that need prep work on it like my cutting board, vegetables, garbage bowl, individual bowls for after I prep, etc to the table, and then load it back up to take to where I need it. I load it up with dirty laundry and then use it for the clean laundry when the load it done from the dryer. Then, once it's folded, I take it to where it needs to go. It's the only thing I can get in and out of the car on my own, although, it's not as easy as I wish it were. I need to work on my torso, as I feel I have weakened quite a bit. I use it when I go to my doctor's visits. Although I have a manual chair and scooter, I cannot use those on my own from my vehicle. The family keeps insisting that I get a thing for the back of the van so I can be more mobile and get out on my own more, but I guess I'm vain, and don't want to ride around town with it on the back of my van. Once I'm out, it doesn't bother me to use my wheelchair or scooter, I just don't like my picture taken in it. I need to get over it as it's been almost 8 yrs since I've gotten TM, and can't seem to come to grips with that part of it. At this point I really don't think that I'm going to wake up and know that this has all been a bad dream. I hope that you all have a good day today, and a better one tomorrow. Big hugs to all, Barbara A in Auburn, CA
