My wife recently got one, and had found it liberating. Her condition has caused both balance and stamina issues. We used to bring both a walker and a wheelchair everywhere we went. Her Zeen has made a major improvement in both our lives.
Oof. US$3980. I’m glad it’s working well for you though.
Imagine if public spaces and businesses just had adequate seating at different levels instead. A few cheap barstools (or normal chairs) scattered around would make a world of difference to so many people.
Thanks for the suggestion.I quite like the idea.I still feel that you need to be very careful with it in order not to fall by leaning forward too much (or sideways). The front wheels should extend further ahead of the patient I think.
They demo’ed that it should catch you falling forward, and the seatbelt will hold you. I’m not sure about sideways. Obviously, we haven’t tested either as scenario.
It’s biggest limitations are hills and off-road. It can go any place a normal unpowered wheelchair can go. My wife has used the Zeen on grass… possible but exhausting!

Yes, it’s pricy!! 😖
More seating would absolutely help many. It just depends what challenges life has thrown their way.
