The Independence Chair is a lifesaver for my uncle. Darcy walked us through picking out the right chair. CEO Mike Laky followed up to make sure we had the chair adjusted just so... when my uncle thought he was sending it back...now that it is properly adjusted my uncle is very happy to have it.

Fabulous chair that works perfectly as expected. I purchased it for my 92-year old father to help him move around at home. He was reluctant to use it at first, but it has made a huge difference in his ability to maneuver in his home on his own. The chair is quality-made of materials that wear well and it is very comfortable to sit on. I was surprised to see how high the seat could be raised and how low it could go down. Everything is adjustable on this chair and it makes it extremely easy to use. My father's home is carpeted with a medium pile. We placed a chair mat over the carpet at the table where he eats. The mat really makes maneuvering easy at the table. Otherwise, the chair moves fine across the carpet and around the house. It easily fits through doorways and goes around obstacles. The house was built in the 50's, so it was not designed for any handicapped access. The chair is truly a difference maker and my entire family is happy with the purchase that enables my father to live his life where and how he desires.

Itā€™s wonderful to know that, despite his initial reluctance, the chair has helped him regain independence and maneuver comfortably in his home. Your detailed feedback about the chairā€™s quality, comfort, and adjustability is incredibly valuable, and weā€™re so glad itā€™s working well even in a mid-century home with carpeted flooring.

The chair lives up to the very ambitious set of promises set out in the marketing material. The brake function especially impresses me: when it's on, that chair isn't moving unless you pick it up!

The vela independence chair was ordered for my physically compromised client. It is exactly what he needed. It allows him to be independent, but safe in an office environment. It has allowed him to stand on his own without having to be lifted from a chair. I highly recommend it.

The Vela chair enables me to function in a near normal manner. Considering I am enabled to prepare MY favorite omelet as I want, use the kitchen dishwasher with ease (like getting the soap from under the sink), as well as up to the microwave, and, access the bottom freezer drawer et al areas unavailable till the Vela. When I am in the kitchen, I use my chair in conjunction with a small 3 shelf cart for transporting stuff between areas, Then there is the sock drawer, doing laundry, accessing LP records and my turntable WITH EASE. Because of these and all the unmentioned successful RE-ENTRIES I have appropriate multiple reminders to RECHARGE the battery. And, I use the Vela chair for exercise. I have the handle accessory which enables me to push the chair between the two tile floors (office and kitchen) across about 37 feet of carpet. Why did I not have this mobility device 12 years ago ? Well, so be it. I Have it now thanks to the wonderful folks
