Things to consider
-
All mobility scooters carry a weight restriction so this is one important factor when making your decision.
-
What will your frequency of use be?
-
Will you usually be alone when using it?
-
Are you able to carry/lift take it apart unaided? Will you need to purchase ramps or lifts to assist you?
-
Large scooters and mid range scooters cannot be taken a part and put in a car boot, so although the bigger mobility scooters are more luxurious and usually have a much greater maximum weight capacity if you want to go on holiday or use occasionally for shopping, meeting family and friends, a large scooter would not be suitable for your needs.
-
Boot scooters and folding scooters are superior when it comes to flexibility and using at your convenience, but they usually have a much lower weight restriction and do not provide the comfort, speed or distance the bigger scooters provide.
