I'd like to purchase the lightest weight possible, affordable chair. Before you stop reading, yes I've done my research. No, I don't expect insurance (US) to cover it. I'm not looking for medical advice. I need to be able to load, unload this sucker from the passenger seat of my car (2 seater, no trunk). Which is probably easier than a trunk. I'd think. I'm looking at Paiseec Q5 or the Zip'r. Both are budget, I know. But not as bad as "Amazon specials". I am ambulatory, so it's literally just for coming, going to my car on my bad days at work and maybe the occasional carnival or something. I'm not super concerned about comfort, per se. But I can't walk far with my crutches and this will definitely save me some spoons, I think. Recommendations? (Pls don't recommend anything heavier, I'm on my own with maneuvering it).

Me Sousa Shamoozeepoop (or whateber name mamma makes up for me today). Tonite Big boomies outside. I try run to Big sis rum. She tells mamma I needz to go outside. I like, noooooo! Den I go back to mamma. She doo a protek. I herd mamma say dey uzta take me to boomie tings (fareworkz?) But stopped a few yeerz go. I don't member. Allz I no is I fraid now. And mamma doo a protek. And petz and gib me kind mumbles. Boomeez stop now but might start again. I stay close to mamma. I soo Big boomeeze?

Hi there. Diagnosed with rare autoimmune shituation about 2 years ago. Made my way from wheelchair to arm crutches (so far). But I get bad days, and I'm looking for a prop to help me when those happen. Like right now, I'm going thru a relapse and could really use the extra support. I'm looking at the Zipr lightweight power chair (carbon fiber). It seems to fit my needs. Almost entirely paved sidewalk to get into work, slight incline. I don't need to use it at home, though maybe during the occasional shopping trip (though since some stores don't have scooters and I don't go out much). I would not sit on it all day, but is soooooo far from the parking lot to my building at work (no workaround, it's how it's laid out, already have a placard so already as close as possible). I need something super lightweight. I need to be able to load and unload it by myself (and in a tiny car). I looked into insurance covering (and my Dr said he'd approve after an eval). But those are heavy big devices which are not my use case. Anyhow, I think i found one from a reputable dealer, the Zipr carbon fiber power chair (28 lbs, total). Does anyone have any experience? Again, not spending all day every day on it, just looking to get from point A to point B back to point A again, mostly on flat cemented surfaces.
