Foldable Power Electric Wheelchair for Adults, Strong and Durable Construction Powered Wheelchair, Motorized Wheelchair for Mobility Needs.

This is proving to be a great electric wheelchair. It has been godsend in help my wife deal with mobility issues she’s suffered from over the last few years.The chair came well packed in a box that was about 2’ x 2.5’ x 3.5’ - even though there was a picture of the chair on the box, I wasn’t sure it actually fit inside. :-). No worries, the chair was folded down and fit (along with packing) with no problem. Sliding the wheelchair out of the box, I was actually able to unfold it immediately without having to refer to the instructions. The listing states it has an easy-fold design…that’s an understatement!! It takes less than 10 seconds to fold or unfold this wheelchair - couldn’t be easier.

The chair was shipped pretty much assembled. I had to attach the joystick assembly to the right arm, plug in the battery connector, and maybe attach the bag (I think the bag came separate - it was so easy to attach, it doesn’t stick out in my memory). The wheelchair was ready to use 5 minutes after I unpacked it.We have a 200’ gravel driveway that leads from the gated road access and winds down to the parking area near the house. The gravel makes a walker pretty much useless, so you’re left with either a manual wheelchair or a cane, neither of which are ideal options. This electric wheelchair navigates the driveway and the attached natural areas with ease. Parts of the driveway have a slight gradient - I’d guess around 4% or so. No issues. There is no noticeable slowdown when going up the “hill”, and no increase in speed coming down. The electronic brakes are great - release the joystick and the wheelchair smoothly stops, even coming down the “hill”.Using it on a smooth surface is even easier. It just glides over pavement, hardwood floors, tile floors, and carpet with ease.Controlling the wheelchair is very intuitive. There’s an on/off button - it does what you’d expect. There is another pair of buttons - up and down - that adjust the forward speed of the wheelchair. There’s a horn button, which my wife enjoys way to much. And there’s the joystick. Push it forward to go forward; pull it back to back up (complete with beeping sound); push left to turn left; push right to turn right. Maximum forward speed is about 5 MPH which is a little more than most people’s average walking speed. We keep the speed set on 3 (on a 1 to 5 scale).You get into the chair from the side - each arm can raise up vertical, allowing you to sit down in the wheelchair and turn to face forward. There is a seatbelt, although my wife doesn’t use it. There are also two small wheels on extendable arms that can be pulled out 3 or so inches to the rear to ensure the wheelchair does’t tip over backwards. We only use these when we remember to extend them, and haven’t experience any issue at all.Starting with a full charge, the charge indicator (a bar of 5 LEDs) dropped only one LED after 3.5 hours of both of us working outside, with my wife traveling up and down the driveway more than half that time. We have used the wheelchair for several doctor visits, and have not noticed any noticeable drop in the charge level. We’re looking forward to longer activities that give us a feel for how long the battery will actually last. On that note, there is a sliding lever on each of the two back-wheel motors. These levers are very easy to get to, and they switch from electric to manual mode (or back) quickly and easily. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to push as you would a manual wheelchair.As I mentioned, the wheelchair takes less that 10 seconds to fold up. It is a little heavy at 60lbs, but I find it fairly easy to pick up once folded and place in the trunk of the car. Admittedly, the flat shelf on the trunk does make it easier to get it out. If it gets to the point where it too heavy for me to handle, we’ll simply get a trailer hitch carrier to use.In terms of value for your money - I really have no basis for comparison. There are electric wheelchairs that are less expensive, and those that cost a LOT more. Other than the fact that some are lighter, I’m hard pressed to see major differences between this wheelchair and those that are significantly more expensive. I will say, in terms of the difference it’s made for us in our lives - this wheelchair is well worth the money.

I did an extensive research on foldable wheelchairs and landed on this one. Here is my review.This is basically The W5521 electric wheelchair that you will commonly see on the market with different stores slapping their names and reselling them. It is a solid option for those who prioritize travel-friendly features. Similar to its counterpart model, the N5513A, the W5521 offers a more robust frame and larger wheels for better ground clearance and increased weight capacity. However, there are some trade-offs to consider.In terms of specifications, the W5521 measures 42.9" x 24.4" x 40.2" and has a seat size of 19.7" W x 16" D. It has a top speed of 3.75 MPH and a maximum range of about 9 miles per charge. The wheel size is 7.9" in the front and 11.8" in the rear, with a maximum climbing angle of 12 degrees. The chair weighs about 60 pounds and can support a maximum weight of 330 pounds.This wheelchair offers a slightly larger seat compared to others and an improved ground clearance, allowing for better maneuverability over various terrains. However, the larger size and weight of the chair make it less travel-friendly compared to the lighter model. The turning radius is wider, requiring more space for turns and potentially leading to more 3-point turns.The top speed and range are modest, suitable for urban environments but may be limiting for longer excursions. While marketed as an "all-terrain chair," it falls a bit short of being truly rugged and may struggle with obstacles or uneven ground beyond a moderate level. It is suitable for use in yards or campgrounds, making it a good choice for RV travelers. Hiking trails beyond easy difficulty may pose challenges.In terms of comfort, it provides reasonable support for short to medium-duration sitting. The seat is padded with block foam and has a breathable mesh material for added comfort. However, it is disappointing that the chair doesn't offer more padding, considering its target audience of heavier users. The seat height is 19.7", measured from the seat to the footplate, and the seatback height is 21.3".In terms of extras and options, the company doesn't offer many accessories specifically designed for the W5521. However, the chair does come with built-in seatbelts and anti-tippers as standard features. Additionally, the aftermarket provides a wide range of accessories that can be added to enhance the chair's functionality.Portability and ease of use are strong points of this wheelchair. It collapses easily with the touch of a button and is highly portable for travel purposes. It is user-friendly, with a simple and intuitive joystick control that can be hooked on either side. The arms can swing out of the way for easy transfers.In a nutshell,Pros:Highly travel-friendly with fast-fold feature and airline friendlinessManageable weight for loading into vehiclesSimple and intuitive to useReasonably comfortable for short to medium-duration sittingCons:Modest top speed and rangeFalls short of being a true all-terrain wheelchairLacks adjustability for individual customizationRelatively higher price compared to bigger brand alternativesOverall, this electric wheelchair offers several advantages, including travel-friendly features, ease of use, and decent comfort for shorter durations. However, its limitations include modest speed and range, limited all-terrain capabilities, lack of adjustability, and a slightly higher price compared to other brands. Ultimately, the suitability of the chair depends on how well its measurements align with the user's needs and preferences.

This chair came preassembled and ready to go right out of the box.It came folded up but was easy to unfold, and fold back up for storage or transporting.It fits in my trunk of my sedan with ease, but might be somewhat heavy for some people.It has a noticeable beep when turned on.There is a horn button that makes the same pitch sound as when you turn on the chair.It takes about two hours to charge but so far it seems to keep its charge very well.There are multiple modes for speed. press the button to the desired speed and use the joystick to move around. The higher the speed you have set, expect more torque in whichever direction you’re going. There is a seatbelt if needed.Once you let go of the joystick the brakes are engaged, you can also pull the joystick back towards you to brake harder. The stopping power seems more than adequate and has the ability to cleanly maneuver tight spaces.There is a Velcro pouch on the back of the chair and a small storage bag that attaches via Velcro to the undercarriage of the chair under the battery for added storage.The instruction manual is self explanatory and easy to understand.The seat cushion itself is comfortable for multiple hours and can be removed if need be.This chair feels STURDY and all of the welds look very well done and clean.The wheels appear to be well built and sturdy with three different options to adjust the back for different angles of terrain.There is also a manual mode where someone can push the chair. This disengages the brakes, and disengages the joystick.This chair handles sidewalk, asphalt and most common terrains easily and safely. It also handles uneven grass well, but I would not recommend taking this onto a grassy slope or steep grassy hill.Overall this seems like a Good chair for a small outing around the town or around the house.It seems like it was very well built and like it will last for years.

Note: this is an update to my prior reviewsAfter discussions with customer representative on how to fix the wheelchair, and a joystick replacement, we got the Power Wheelchair to work! So happy!Our elder family member used it while outside, going on paved road, rocky areas of our front and back yard, grass, etc. The wheelchair felt stable on these surfaces, although it is not as smooth a ride on the rocky areas, as it is on paved areas.The larger, thick rear wheels help this wheelchair to move over small obstacles (bumps in sidewalks, the raised area where the sidewalk meets our driveway).Our elder felt comfortable sitting in the thick, cushioned seat (and the back has decent cushioning, as well).Our elder found it easy to maneuver while using the joystick, even though it took some time to learn to gauge how fast/slow to go because the joystick is very sensitive (that is, moving the joystick slightly to the right/left/forward/backwards and the wheelchair responds nearly instantaneously).On the controller, the Speed up/ Speed down button can be adjusted so that the wheelchair travels at five levels (2.5-mph, 2.8-mph, 3.1-mph, 3.4-mph, 3.7-mph).note: when moving backwards, I hear beeping sounds (I could not figure out how to mute the sound).The user manual gives good descriptions on how to install and fold the wheelchair, how to use anti-tip wheel adjustment when going on a slope, how to properly charge the battery. On the other hand, a number of the pictures/diagrams are not as clear as I'd like.As for battery replacement, the manual does not give information on how to buy another battery, nor could I find this information on the product description page.Overall, this is a high quality wheelchair, with the option to use in the Electric or Manual mode, and it's a great way to help our elder move around. Now, we don't have to sit around,waiting for a store's electric cart to be available for use.---------------------------------------------------This is an updated review to the one I posted a while back (see old review below).After talking with the company, and trying to unplug and re-plug the connections to the joystick, which didn't work, they sent me another joystick.Once I got the joystick, I removed the screws and metal bar of the old joystick, and applied it to the new joystick, plugged everything in, charged it. But, the joystick wouldn't turn on, and I can't get the power wheelchair to work. See new video I made.--------------------------------------------------------This is our first time using a Power Wheelchair.I followed the instructions in the Owner's Manual to charge this wheelchair, following the instructions on page 10-11.Then, I sat in the wheelchair, fastened on safety belt, and pressed the power switch button on the controller. It briefly lit up. I moved the joystick, but the wheelchair did not move.What I like about the wheelchair:-- since I cannot figure out how to use this in the Electric Mode, I am using it in the Manual mode.-- the seat cushion feel very comfortable-- assembly was easy-- there is a compartment behind the backrest, with a hook-and-loop, where we can put items in - such as mobile devicesLastly, I could not find information in the manual for a phone number to call for assistance. No email is provided.Overall, this is a sturdy wheelchair, and at least, we can use it manually.

First, I want to point out something that could be easy to miss. I missed it originally, and thought I either had a bad battery or a defective chair, but it turned out to be something simple. In the back of the wheelchair, there are two cables that need to be snapped together. There's no yellow or red labels to make them stand out, so they can be hard to see after unpacking. But if you look at my picture, you can see them. So be sure to connect those before trying the chair.Once the chair is powered, it's very easy to use. There are 5 settings for speed, and I do notice quite a difference between 1 and 5. Both start slowly and build up, so even if you are on speed 5, if you only go seven feet forward, it's going to seem like speed 1. I find the chair to be very comfortable to sit in, and also easy to get in and out of, whether sliding right in, or lifting the arm for more entry space.I'm also a fan of the construction. The welds look very impressive. When I collapse or expand the chair, the operation is smooth. I expect it will last quite a long time, and probably outlast the battery. Thankfully, if you search the internet for "DMEGC 24V 10AH Lithium Battery For Wheelchair", you can find replacements for under $100.
