ok ds has had a appontment with eqtpservices today and i now got brain blank on the one they have ordered wanted t google it see if can find out bit more

is lightweight and umbrella folds the back can recline to ,you can add variousbits for head control etc ,the foot rest is in 2 parts that you push together and unclip when ou want to fold,has swivel wheels on,

does it ring any bells foranyone or can you point me in direction of website where can see various ones see if can jog memory

bump

otto bock eco buggy, sometimes called a shuttle buggy? (depending on supplier.)
or Ormesa Clip? (not light weight tho

I'd be interested in knowing which one it is and what you think of it, Phoenix.

Waiting for an appt too as unhappy with the stability of our Maclaren Major. Looking for something similar for everyday,in & out the car so reasonably lightweight and easy to fold ....... but more stable. Any advice or suggestions appreciated.

thank you all
looking at it think yout right riven.

Reiver from testingit and pushing it seemed very stable but remember i tested it indoors
the order will go in 1st of April hopefully have by end of may, what i liked ,is the fact that folds with footplate in place unline the major

do you know if there any kind of raincover i can bbuy for it thank you

Thanks riven

will go get when it arrives ,ds does not like rain on his face ,but withschool run staying home not a option

How did you find it for your Dd,push etc ,though know problems lot more severe

yeah i did wonder andasked about one ,butthat was their preferd one for now though once hes at school there going relook at itconsider other options to give him more independance ,,though think he would struggle to movehimself round due to that it affetcs his arms to but was lessof afight than i was warned to expect from other local parents

thanks Riven that is defintley the one been ordered for ds ,atm as I dont drive and where I live the buses are non wheelchair friendly well till we hit he main town anywayeed something that folds ,this I hope should work better thanthe major as he kept slumping and leaning in

But once passed driving test will get them tto rethink wheelchair

Helpful info - thanks Phoenix & Riven. The folding footplate sounds a more practical option. Don't know what we'll be offered yet but it's useful to have some info in advance.

when are you due to go back reiver?,we fallen lucky as will go througgh in April as they get there new budget

No appt date yet - sounds as if your timing was good! Just trying to look at possible options so I know the pros and cons if given a choice (wishful thinking?).

Hi

Can anyone confirm that the Argos Universal Rain Cover (£16.99) fits the Convaid CX12 Cruiser?
