We went to a 3 day convention at a huge arena. Put this chair on high gear and it did 10 flights of ramps to the 5th level like it was nothing! I'm a big girl but it kept up! Love my chair!
Opening and closing it is a breeze. The operator's manual has pictures to show you how to do it, and it's easy and comfortable.
I was really impressed when I received the Zinger Chair. It came already assembled and it was so easy to unpack and start using right away. I love the fact that it has a backup alarm, and I also appreciate how easy the brakes are to set once you park and need to stand up. The brakes are out of the way but easy to reach. It really has a lot of power in high speed so you can get though grass pretty easy. I would recommend this chair to anyone who is looking for a durable, well-made, light-weight and easy to use power chair.
Only problem with the Zinger is you have to use both hands to guide it. Also, I tried to buy a cup holder for it but nothing fits. Had to get a side pouch to put inside the scooter for extra items I want to carry and a pouch on the back of the chair attached by s hooks. I would rather have had easier controls on top of the arm to maneuver it around. It was not easy for me to get used to. It is also heavier than we thought it would be. My husband had hernia surgery last year and has a hard time lifting it into the car. I can't lift it at all due to back issues. He would rather use my Pride scooter and lift so he doesn't have to lift it. Am disappointed in the chair although I will use it for traveling by air. I understand you have to remove the battery, put tape over it and carry it onto the plane before boarding. We will have to request extra time to take care of this before they load the Zinger in the baggage section.
I have been going to Rennisanse Faires for over 35 years, mostly on grass and dirt. When the AR & OR took my walking away from me I thought I would have to give up going, Wheelchairs are not usable, electric scooters are not made for grass and dirt, let alone mud. The Zingerchair however lets me do all the Faires. We have used it on grass, it doesn't do well on wet grass thought. It got thru mud that didn't have standing water. Rolled over gravel just fine. I have taken it to museums, casinos, concerts, country fairs. I even got to play chase with my grandkids. I will be taking it when my kids, grandkids and I go on our yearly family vacation in December, Looking forward to that! Now I just need to get the cup holder and see if I can order a spare battery. Thank you so much for giving me back my freedom
My brother Lew has been amazed by the power and flexibility of the Zinger. Having it will help him maintain his independence and enable him to keep appointments on time. While he is ambulatory, long walks drain him. The Zinger fills a need like no other motorized chair we've found.
I don't need it often, only when I am doing a lot of walking or going to conferences/fairs. I look forward to taking it on vacation with me.
Nice and light.
Power controls in difficult location. Must turn head and look down to confirm reading and setting. Also, engaging the braking system needs to be reevaluated so as not to cause a person to bend over to engage.
We love the chair. We took it to mohonk mountain house. It performed well. Even on slightly loose gravel. Well done
What impresses me the most about the Zinger is the durability of the chair's motor and battery; I use the chair every day on a 1.5 mile course that i use to walk my dog, or should say run my dog now. The chair has sufficient speed that my dog has to trot to keep up with me. There are several significant incline grades and the chair climbs them without a problem. It is truly a remarkable example of extraordinary engineering both the construction and the motor. Steering the chair is a snap; it can turn on a dime. Lastly, the chair almost folds itself, just pull the locking strap and pull... it's done.
It has greatly improved my ability to move about more freely, increased independence! No assembly was required so took out of box charged the battery and was able to practice maneuvering!
The Zinger is just what I was looking for. It's very portable, easy to operate, goes plenty far and fast! Great purchase that will solve problems for me.
My father 90 yrs old wanted this chair so bad. He has a 3 wheel scooter that he was using for getting groceries at the store because their chairs are too slow for his taste. We purchased the zinger chair and he has loved it because it has a great back that lets him recline and the handles make it fun to use. We get stopped by so many people in the store I am always talking about this chair to everyone and I printed out a page from their website to carry around with me so I can show them and let my voice relax :)
Answer: This is a legit company. They have very good customer service. I received the Zinger Chair earlier than promised.
Answer: Replacement parts took months for me to get an extra battery and rear wheels need to be replaced every 6 months
Answer: Always on back order takes months to receive your product
Answer: Definitely no, the chair is too heavy to lift despite the companies claim
Answer: It does have a lever, but it's kinda inconveniently located under the chair. You have to kind of force your hand through to set the break
Hi Nina. We're so glad your dad loves his chair. Rather than having to print out pages from our site, we have something called the Zinger Ambassador Program. We will mail you cards that he can give out (he'll write his name/zip code on the back). If one of the people he gives one to purchases a Zinger and refers to the program, not only will they receive a $100 discount, but we'll credit YOUR method of payment back $100. You can do this up to 23 times. If you'd like to sign up, just give our Customer Service Dept. a call at 877-421-3724. Thanks for your review!
