Review of the Image Gt Mid Wheel Drive Power Wheelchair With Captains Seat (2800GTBL-RCL)

We have included the Image Gt Mid Wheel Drive Power Wheelchair With Captains Seat (2800GTBL-RCL) in this review for the benefit of those who need just a little more help with mobility than the scooters give.  There are many other models on the market but it is difficult to find owner reviews on many of them.

We were able to locate a few reviews by owners of this power wheelchair.  Owners give it an overall rating of 4.6/5, calling it “excellent value”, “good well built”, “excellent quality at a third of the price”, and saying ““for the price it seems good”, and “exceeds my want for a good power wheel chair”.

Power Source:

A big plus to this power wheelchair is that it has an onboard battery charger and a cord.  This makes it easy to plug it in to a wall socket to recharge wherever you go. Lugging around a separate charging unit doesn’t even come into the picture. One owner would have preferred that the charging plug be located to the side rather than under on the housing under the chair, but it wasn’t a big issue for her.

Speed:

About 6-7 mph initially, but slows down to about 5-6 mph after about a minute at full speed.  This is a pretty good speed for a chair.  You can really zip around in this beauty.

Length of charge:

The owner who reviewed this power wheelchair had never gone for more than a 2 mile run and was surprised that his chair still showed a full charge after that. This power wheelchair would appear to hold it’s charge well. Though we don’t know the exact length of time that it will go, with an onboard charger there would never be a problem.

Adjustability and Functionality:

This power wheelchair has more features than many others, making for maximum comfort level for the rider, as well as increased functionality in tight spots. The arms are fully adjustable for height and distance apart, and also tilt up to full vertical when necessary. The seat and seat back are also fully adjustable for height and tilt. The seat can rotate for ease getting in and out, or for an easy fit at the dinner table if there’s no room for the foot rest. The foot rest is spring loaded.  A person who can’t bend down to lower it and raise their legs up to it would need a little help in placing their feet on it.  It is ideal though for someone who still has some flexibility.

A number of owners commented on the ease of use and the ability to turn in small radius, though one commented on the steering being “very delicate control” and didn’t like the plastic shroud versus metal. Another owner found going up ramps could cause the drive wheels to lose their traction when the front casters leave the horizontal plane. According to him though, a bit of a running start solves that problem, so it isn’t a big issue.

Summary:

Overall, owners are pleased with the Image Gt Mid Wheel Drive Power Wheelchair With Captains Seat. It would appear to be a well made, sturdy machine that provides a comfortable ride, is easy to use, and convenient to recharge. “I can get around much better”, says one owner. We would recommend this power wheelchair to anyone who desires the freedom of mobility that a power chair provides.
