Hi all you Pals! my husband is interested in getting a new chair and I was hoping to get some feedback from all of you who use one. He originally got an Invacare--but found it uncomfortable and difficult to use. so he bought himself a used Redman which is a standing chair. It is a great feature, but the company is not the greatest service and the chair has broken several times (the actuator which is the major and very expensive component). It is also bulky and ugly, but surprisingly comfortable. He is still able to bear weight on his legs so he loves the standing (and so do I for transfers).
He is looking at the Redman again, but also found the Levo. anyone have any comments on either chair?
What about other brands that don't have the standing feature? I am not sure how much longer the standing will be even possible so I would be ok with out it (but it is his chair...) I know several here have said they have Perimobils which I think have very good chairs as well. most important to me is quality, service and comfort.
thanks ya'll!
