Replacement Vicair Air Cells are as you'd expect. The reason for 5* is due to the excellent service - no fuss and they arrived the next day (which in the current climate is even more appreciated).

Good quality sheepskin, great for protecting against pressure sores, washes nicely and will also tumble dry.

These black heavy duty ferrules, are much larger & stronger than the originals and so are very good replacements for the originals.

I’ve purchased these “non spill” cups before, only to discover they don’t work. This one does, you can turn it upside down and you only get a dribble from a little air hole. Going to buy my mum another

Excellent product, took a around 1 hour to set up in the correct position. Works well once attached which is easier the more you do it. Very happy and a good battery life

This is very easy to use and has become a great help to me, as I have recently had to have an operation it arrived in time for me to arrive home and use it to help me get about slowly at the moment.
I would have been really struggling had I not ordered this walker when I did.
I am really glad I bought it.

Nice chair, probably should have bought the adjustable height version but does the job without looking too hospitaly.

Really pleased with my purchase including the swift delivery.
I only wish you could buy packs of 25 too but really happy to be able to revive my wheelchair cushion.

The chair seems extremely well made and designed. It is I think unique in the market. Expensive but it does what it sets out to do and does it extremely well.
It collapses easily and is easy to move around. A carer can easily push on the handles when locked in position to assist manoeuvring.
The rear wheels have some springs hidden in them which allow a carer to push down on the back and raise the front up by a cm or so. Just enough to ge the small front jockey wheels to clear a small shower lip - but only a max then of maybe 2cm in total. Tricky to do if self propelling I think. It really is designed for flat and smooth floors. There are also little locking buttons which engage on the hand wheels and seem quite effective.
ActiveMobility were the only company in the UK which had any stock. So well done you.
We have bought this to remove the stress of unknown toilet/ showers when on holiday or even on day trips (wife has MS with much reduced mobility). It is compact enough to go into a medium ish bag and go into the car or hold on a flight. Not yet sure if we can take it into the cabin on a plane in addition to the wheelchair though (or even if we need to)
The removable commode padded seat (which it comes with) is unfortunately just a bit too deep to allow my wife's feet to comfortably reach the footrests when 'abluting'. Even though they are adjustable. However by omitting it the problem is removed and the base of the seat is comfortable enough. Also the padded seat does not fold up into the chair and has to be carried separately anyway.
The optional full seat pad is useful as it makes it look less like a commode if used beyond just in the bathroom. However for whatever reason the seat does not clip on to frame like the commode cushion. It has tendency to slide a bit until the person is sitting on it when it then seems fine. An issue but not a major one
The carry case is not in stock anywhere but may get one just for flights. Unfortunately that looks as if it is not designed to take the padded seat cushion or the commode pan which will have to go separately.
So some minor issues but my wife is hugely relieved to have it as part of her kit and is not dreading unknown hotels etc quite as much as before

I was so looking forward to this device as I have arthritis in my thumbs, but have been disappointed so far and still have to ask my husband to open jars for me.

I have found this support very helpful for the arthritis that is in many of my toes. They give support to under the toes when it can hurt to walk every step so I am happy to recommend them. I have tried the gel type ones but I find these are much better.

Very pleased with this Aluminium Walking Stick Stool. I took it on a WW1 'Walking The Somme' guided holiday where we walked & then stopped frequently to learn about the location. It was comfortable to sit on & easy to get up from with my arthritic knees, by pushing on the metal handles. It was also easy & light to carry or use as a walking aid. I also liked the fact that there were 3 different heights to choose from & so I was able to buy the shorter 32". When I phoned Active Mobility to ask for more info before purchase, I was able to get the size of the seat & the weight as being under 1 kg.

Good quality padded bag - easier to lift my triride in/out of car. Website very easy to use. Customer service is excellent, and customers are always kept informed regarding status of orders/deliveries. Would definitely use again.
