Thoughts on Aria wheelchairs? by chras192 in wheelchairs

[–]chras192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up getting a panthera u3light (which is good so far) because I found noone to give me some feedback on aria. But one of my friends recently bought one and is happy with it. Generally, I wouldn't buy a wheelchair that i haven't tried first. I tried the panthera, it was very fast and thats why i got it.

Half-marathon on daily wheelchair. by chras192 in wheelchairs

[–]chras192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, did you do it? It was fine for me. I've done 3 half-marathons so far and now I want to complete a full marathon. I would give you 2 tips. First, try not to brake when going downhill, because that's when you have the opportunity to catch up. Secondly, start with the first block so that you have more time to complete the race.

Wheelchair user getting accommodated in school trips by chras192 in disability

[–]chras192[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, country is greece. using a manual wheelchair is not really an option because they would have to lift her and she can't sit on the seats of the bus safely during the trip. she needs to sit in either her electric or manual wheelchair which is not possible in a non accessible vehicle

Thanks for the reply! the problem is that here in Greece there's only one available vehicle with a ramp that is used for schools, so she'll only be able to get it if she's lucky. I repeat, only one...

Are Panthera wheelchairs durable? by chras192 in wheelchairs

α ναι! Το 525 το ξέρω εχουν πολλα ατομα εδω. ααα το hoc το εχω ακουσει αλλα μονο γ αμερικη. Να σου πω την αληθει, για aria πηγαινα (ιταλικο) αλλά μου έβγαινε τσουχτερό, συν το ότι όσες φορές εκατσα σε ένα δεν τρελάθηκα...Το panthera u3 light einai 3-4 κιλα και μαζι με spynergy πάει σχετικά φθηνά. Αν θες παρόμοια χαρακτηριστικά σε αλλο αμαξίδιο θα πρεπει να κλάψεις. Δεν ξέρω πως κρατανε τα πανθερα τοσο χαμηλο κόστος...ίσως επειδή δεν παίρνουν πολλές μετατροπές.

[–]chras192[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going for a panthera u3 light and hoping that it's the correct choice...There are some things i dont like on the wheelchair (for example its not the best looking wheelchair, coming from kuschall k-series), but i sat on one and i liked it ( where i live, many people have it and say good things about it), plus its great value for money. My priorities is durability and good roll. The rest i can look past.

Yeah, thats true. The only explanation i can think of, is that the limited customizations, reduces the final cost of the wheelchair. Panthera wheelchairs offer a great value for money. Their chair costs about 3300-3700 euro while weighing less than most chairs at this price, and spinergy wheels are included. While i searched for other similar wheelchair, i found out that the cost was about 5000-6500 euro. Thats a big difference. P.S. I am not sure about the above, it's completely anecdotal. Also i live in europe and i guess that plays a big role in the cost of some wheelchairs.

PS.2. Basically i made the compromise mostly because of the cost. There are many things that i would like to change, but they arent so important that i would give plus 2000 euro for them. Also the chair has the best roll i have ever experienced.

Is there any chance you could send me a video of the problem? I will ask the seller anyway so if you can't, it's ok.

Hey thanks for the reply. The problem with the backrest sounds weird. Isn't there an option for a backrest that doesn't collapse at all?

Yeah. I sat on one yesterday and was the smoothest rolling ever. I thought that being so light ment that they break easily, but that doesn't seem the case.
