“Sadly my mother died towards the end of May. She enjoyed using the chair and it allowed her to safely pick up things off the floor. It allowed her to interact with the dog. I have been using the chair as an office chair on the days I telecommute. I helps that I am about the same height as my mother.”

“I recently acquired a Vela chair and I love how it has helped me to be more independent with meal prep, especially in the kitchen. I also use it to sit on while eating dinner. The individual attention I received to help order the correct chair, as well as getting financial assistance was amazing. I was helped by one staff member on-site the entire time and still can get assistance post-purchase and delivery. Best chair for independence.”

“I have MS and am only moderately disabled. Mostly I just get very tired from standing. I love to cook, and I keep my new VELA chair in the kitchen so I can cook sitting down. I prep at the counter with the chair all the way up, reach things in lower cabinets with it down, and be at the stovetop with it halfway up. And I can whizz around in between without getting up and down. Plus it's super comfy and restful to sit in. It is a real energy-saver for me.”

“Best chair!! I love it! So helpful for me. I have MS and peripheral neuropathy. I love everything about it. The easy locking castors make the chair so easy to get in and out of. This chair was very pricey and took about 2 months to get, but well worth the $ and time waiting.”

“I was born with Becker's Muscular Dystrophy, and started to have troubles getting up and down from a low seats in my late 30's. I could not use the tilting lift recliners as I needed to be able to lock my knees to get up. So I scoured the internet for chairs that do not tilt when lifting and found the Vela chair. They were in Denmark, but only worked with Enable Me in the States exclusively. I purchased the vela independence chair. I have had it for many years and I do not think I would still be mobile today if I had not. Everyone I have spoken to here have been top notch and are passionate about Enabling their customers to have a full life with the help of their products. I would highly recommend Enable Me.”

“The Independence Chair is just what my mother needed. Her illness (Inclusion Body Myositis) weakens the arm and leg muscles to lift herself up from a sitting position, so the vertical lift function of this chair gives her independence in getting in and out of a chair on her own. Also with the caster wheels, she can easily move it around the house. She is average height, but we ordered the taller 300 mm actuator, giving a 12-inch range of lift, rather than just an 8-inch range. This made all the difference in her particular case. She could go low enough to easily fit under her computer desk and the dining room table, yet also high enough to not have any trouble standing up from the chair. We received the chair just 8 days after we ordered it even though it shipped all the way across the U.S. We assembled it in just minutes, as it comes in just 2 main pieces. The chair is high quality and has given my mom freedom to sit and stand on her own. I would highly recommend this chair to anyone with mobility issues. Enable Me has been a great company to work with and were very helpful in answering all our questions. We are so grateful for this product.
Laurie – thankful customer”
