Hi All,

Anybody here have a Permobil Powerchair ? How is the reliability and

support? Reliability issues?

Are you happy with yours?

I am thinking of getting one for the seating features,(elevate, maybe stand).

USAtechguide shows many poor 'Reliability' reviews on most models
except the 'Street'. I don't want the 'Street'.

I want a Front Wheel Drive with only 4 wheels on the ground, for indoor mostly w/ some
outdoor use. I already have several outdoor chairs.

Thanks in advance

I have a C300, love the reclining backrest..... But I hate the front wheel drive..... Battery charger went bad within the first year and you better keep the batteries charged or they will go bad? I like my old Quickie P300 electronics and speed better, but it had no shock absorbers.....

Jim,

Thanks!

What is your range?

Are the batteries smaller than NF22's in AMP HOURS?

Does the C300 have 4 wheel shocks or just rear?

Will the C300 accept an external charger?

I have fast outdoor chairs, 3G Arrow, two Quickie S-646's one is the SE.
I am looking for elevate or stand on a RELIABLE power base for in my home. A Permobile provider, (with a great service reputation), is close to me here for service if needed.

thanks
john

Don't know about the range or battery size, it has an external charger and rear shocks.....

I wanted the C500, but insurance didn't want to spend the extra 2 grand?????
Kinda stupid when they forked over 37 grand for this piece of crap....
