-JEANNE- I have a SONIC three wheeled scooter and wish i had gotten

a four wheeler instead because the three wheeler tends to tip over

if on some uneven surfaces- JOHn B.-- In PLS-

should get a manual or power. I'm thinking power since I don't

think I can propel myself too far, and my husband had open heart

surgery and has CHF, and also had back surgery does'nt need to be

pushing me around. So I think the power may be the best way to go.

Or maybe a scooter? What advantages does one have over the other?

They both are expensive, are there any I should stay away from?

Which brands are better, hold up the best. Something heavy duty but

easy to transport and also to get around in. Are reconditioned ones

a good investment? Is renting or leasing a good idea? Let me know

your opinions. Sorry It's taken me a little while to write back,

been busy around the house with spring projects. Legs got tired

today, came in made some lunch was cleaning up afterwards, holding

on to side by side door on refrig. after putting something away,

turned to reach for my walker, freezer door popped open, I lost my

balance and fell down on floor, not to much damage, sore left hip

and left elbow, scared my husband who was in next room, scared me

too. The moral of the story " DON'T USE REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER DOOR

HANDLES AS GRAB BARS " !!!!!! HAZORDOUS TO HEALTH!!!!!!
