Hey Brian, not sure if you remember me but you helped me get through a tough time in Jr High and you were kind to me when you didn't have to be so thank you for that. I'm happy to see that despite having 30 strokes, you're doing well and your family has stuck by you. Keep up the great work on these videos. 👊 My oldest daughter suffered two massive strokes in 2017 and it's been a long process to recovery for her and I've shared your videos with her.
Hi Justin, I am sorry to hear about your daughter's strokes. Life can be challenging at times. Stories like yours are the reason I am doing this channel. Keep in touch, best wishes to you and your daughter.
Very interesting and informative video. I am getting a Permobil M5 fitted for me to try out in two weeks. I can’t wait. My current powerchair is causing me so much pain and grief. I hear the suspension and stability on these is amazing.
I am so glad you liked my video! I hope you really love your new M5, if it is anything like the M3 I know you will love it! Wishing you the best, Brian
thanks so much for posting. my wife has just been assessed for one of these chairs. She took to it like a duck to water :). Thanks for showing me the features, sir. i loved your video, Brian; subscribed :)
I am glad you liked my video. I hope you and your wife find it useful. If you have any questions feel free to drop me a note. I would be happy to answer any questions you have. Brian
Thank you for a personal perspective in the M3! Gathering info as an M3 might be my choice in a few months. The M5 takes too much space, though a little better ride outdoors for that reason. Permobil now offers bigger batteries (group 24) for longer range of travel and seat operation in the M3. The Quickie power wheelchair (oops!) is in the shop and I'm atop a back-up 2014 Permobil C500 with 2,888 miles. A chair I've never had a bad experience mechanically speaking. Permobil quality is in a Class of its own, still. I wish you all the best, Brian.
William, you are so welcome! I also found the quality of Permobil power chairs to be excellent. I greatly appreciate your feedback and information about the new batteries. Best regards, Brian
Great video. I recently purchased my son a Permobil F3 off EBAY and when I finally got to test it, it felt odd to me since it's front-wheel drive and it pulls you around, whereas his old chair was rear-wheel drive and pushed you around. I wonder if I should have gotten an M3 since the drive wheels are further back. Good luck with the chair, I hope it lasts for many years.
Hello Marvin, I got my Jazzy Passport through a medical supply store that is authorized to sell Jazzy products. I have insert a link to the website where you can find more information. www.pridemobility.com/jazzy-power-chairs/jazzy-passport/ I hope you find what you are looking for. Let me know if you have any more questions. Best wishes, Brian
I've seen some Permobil chairs that were over $80,000 USD. I acquired a Permobil F3 that was only a few months old, and got it for $400. I have my eyes on another, M3 V2 for $300.
If this is for a Samsung Galaxy smart watch just say "hi BIxby turn blue tooth on". It will go to the blue tooth icon, an just slide the selector to ON. Hope this helps, Best Regards, Brian

thanks for sharing. I love my Permobil and have had a few mid-wheel drives. They work really well!
Glad you like them!

Thank you so much for your video it’s been very informative.
You are more than welcome, I get a lot of satisfaction out of making these videos. Positive feedback makes it all worth while. Best wishes, Brian

Great to see you again Brian.

$38,000? Wow! I’m waiting on a power chair. A quickie 700..
Good video young man keep up the good work one question I picked up a per mobile M3 for my brother can the chair itself go up and down
Orlando, the chair has a lift function available. It is available for an extra charge when you order the chair. I didn't chose to order that option.
It shows a feature where you can go up and down but the light is not on. If so how can I get it to work
38k wow Uk that same chair is 9k would be cheaper to buy in the uk and ship it over
Thanks for the thorough review! Can it still drive when the back is reclined flat and legs elevated, like you're laying down?
That is a great question! I think maneuverability, for safety reasons, is very limited, best wishes, Brian

Hi Brian. How much maintenance do you have to worry about for things like the drive train and motors?
I haven't had any maintenance to date. I look forward seeing you again.

Actually its best too charge every night if your using it daily but hey your choice just saying new batteries arn't cheap
Seconded! Good battery hygiene with this type is to keep them regularly topped off
