LITH-TECH MOBILITY Reviews 1.153

Once again I can praise Lith -Tech Mobility for their helpful and prompt service. I feel it is important to receive good aftercare when purchasing such a specialised and costly item as a power chair.

Toby, Will, & Paul, were a fantastic help with all of their advice and professional knowledge of the Lith-Tech range of chairs, and which one would be most suitable for myself, being a first time buyer/user.
Although I decided on an excellent second-hand SC-x XL, from a friend, which I am pleased with, so far, I was not 'pressured' to purchase a suitable chair from Lith-Tech directly, which gave me a good feeling about how this genuine firm operates. Toby is a veritable 'font of knowledge' with all of his many videos on YouTube, which give potential purchasers, and users virtually all they need to know about the many powered, fold up wheelchairs that Lith-Tech offer, as well as what to avoid when looking for a suitable chair of any kind. Also a big 'thank you' for the various accessories that I ordered from the company online, they arrived less than 24 hours after ordering!! Top marks to all at Lith-Tech, buy with confidence.

It took me a lot time and very careful consideration before I felt ready to purchase my first power chair. After getting somewhat overwhelmed as I discovered more and more brands online, I finally chanced upon Lith-Tech, and I am so glad that I did. Here’s just a few reasons why I would highly recommend buying a power chair from this company.

1. Toby’s videos. They really do take you through everything. I felt like I knew how to operate a power chair, and more importantly, how to safely navigate the hazards I would likely face while out and about in one before I’d even sat in one of the chairs.
2. The ordering process. I live too far away from a Lith-Tech showroom to realistically visit one, but that wasn’t a problem. The telephone consultation was excellent. I spoke to Will, who was supportive, patient and very knowledgeable about their products. We went through all of my requirements before he suggested which chair he thought would be right for me, including any beneficial modifications for my particular needs.
3. Ordering and delivery. Absolutely first class. Everything was straightforward. The chair was delivered on the date I requested and the communication throughout was excellent.
4. The chair itself. I’ve only managed 2 short trips on it so far. Mostly around our garden and up and down the rather bumpy pavements near our house (this is where the aforementioned videos proved invaluable). The chair is incredibly comfortable, easy to operate, and feels very, very sturdy. Even on my first time in it I felt far more confident than I had expected, and I’m sure that is down to the quality of the chair. I just feel safe in it.

I can’t wait to venture further afield in it, and really put it through its paces, and hopefully regain something of what I have lost over recent years. My partner said that after a few times around the garden, I looked up smiling and said, ‘It’s brilliant’…and it is.
Thank you all at Lith-Tech.

Good customer service they called after I placed the order to check it was correct and to ensure the vat exemption form was sent as well. Item did what I needed it to do

Great customer service and speedy delivery.

New deeper seat for the wheelchair. Very comfortable, good quality and gives great support. We are also delighted with the electric wheelchair. Very portable and manoeuvrable - used around the house and easily goes in the car boot and our camper van.

Great service and great product, with courtesy call before the order was placed to confirm make and model of chair.
Again thank you all for the fantastic products you provide to make our grandsons life more accessible.

Thankyou so much., had a phone call to ensure the ramps were right for us before being sent out. Received the following day from ordering

Now *that* is a powerchair!

I've recently lost my mobility due to spine and pelvic injury and this is the third powerchair I've purchased, what can I say, third time is a charm.

There are many similar looking models around, and the first chair I bought was one for £1099, a reclining freedom elite chair from E**ch Mobility. It had on paper very similar specs as this chair. The motor was nice and powerful and juicy, but unfortunately the frame just couldn't really handle it. It was very heavy and the frame quite soft. The handling was nice but it arrived damaged and missing parts and was clearly a return which hadn't been safety checked. So that was sent back.

I then tried a almost identical looking model which had an auto recline function, also costing £1099 from Gl**er Mobility. The chair on paper had the same specs as this chair. The brakes were a disgrace, there was a big delay which meant the chair would slide and loose traction. The handling was very poor, and the speed inconsistent. I couldn't safely use it alone, defeating the purpose of the purchase. The motor was worthless, it couldn't even handle ordinary pavement slopes and the battery was even worse. I took it out the length of my garden and lost an entire bar. The speed never reached its advertised speed and it meant on inclines there was nowhere to go for acceleration, which was dangerous. Their customer service was appalling and I genuinely worry for any disabled/elderly people who bought the chair. So I returned it.

I then looked into Lith Tech, and was immediately impressed by the indepth, real world tested videos to help improve user ability. The design of the chair is engineered to a far superior standard and doesn't require little outriggers at the back. On paper it had all the same specs as the two previous chairs.

Upon purchase I received a call from LithTech to ask me a few questions about my mobility situation, needs and understanding of the product. I was glad for the call and even the chance to customise the chair, it showed responsibility and also care for their clients.

The package arrived promptly and with thoughtful instructions for the driver, which I thought was a nice touch.

Immediately, it was obvious the chair was head and shoulders above the other two. It was much lighter and more sympathetically designed. Even the curvature of the footrest when it's stored upright to avoid bumping your shins. I can very easy drop my shoulder and switch from electric mode to manual mode independently. The frame is of an excellent robust standard. The seat is extremely ergonomic and beautifully designed. It is so intuitively made. The handling and responses are superb and the instant locking makes me feel very safe and able to travel with independence across many terrains with ease.

The battery life is akin to the old Nokia bricks, I just can't understand it. Ive been in hospital for a few days, it's transported me in and out several times, I've even raced my daughter down the carpark and tested it on hills and grass. I went for a stroll yesterday up and around the neighbourhood and in and out of my garden many times. I am STILL on full battery.

Beyond all these important comfort and safety boons, is the fact she is a punchy little monster! The motor is a beast, and it is great to be able to achieve a great speed at times. It is hard not to feel vulnerable as a wheelchair user, so being able to floor it and outpace even a teenager is definitely good for my peace of mind!

I can traverse so many places I have wanted to and been unable to explore for many months. It's given me my life back and my independence, I truly feel safe in this chair and that it's reliable.

I would say to any one perusing powerchairs to just avoid cheaper alternatives, they really aren't worth your health or your money! Lithtech make their chairs with the user in mind and seem to be all round good eggs.

10/10

Communication was excellent, customer service was personal and friendly.
Lovely team, went above and beyond to help

Will and Toby were very patient and helpful. They were professional, courteous and kind. I'm very happy with my electric wheelchair. Thank you

Was initially wary of spending so much on a product I could see or have a demo of but all is well. Those I talked to at Lith-Tech were straight forward and explained anything I asked about very well. The videos on You Tube were a great help and very informative and useful. As an engineer/designer, I can appreciate the quality of the product and now know why Toby is so pleased with what he has produced. I am now a proud owner of an excellent product and my wif and dog are now accompanied on their daily walks. I still have my mobility scooter for various reasons but my favourite is now the Smart Chair 1 XL - good name - it really does excel !

Was called to make sure we had ordered a suitable product. Fast delivery, excellent service.

From ordering to delivery was seamless! The answers to my questions, advice and recommendations were faultless!
I rang Lith Tec to query about their foldable power wheelchairs. The Lith Tech SC-1 power wheelchair was recommended for me, with slight alteration to the front wheels (I only use outdoors). This was the best advice EVER!
I ordered over the telephone and received my chair the next day! (Previously I'd bought a foldable mobility scooter from a different company. It didn't suit me at all, making me feel vulnerable and unsteady. Unfortunately, this knocked my confidence a lot).
My Lith Tech SC-1 has given me even more confidence and independence than I had before I bought the previous mobility scooter. Now I even go out unaccompanied, which was unheard of before!
I can't recommend this power wheelchair enough. It's given me a new lease of life!

Delivery was quick. Quality of chair cover is good.

] I cannot fault the product. It is well worth the money. I am truly satisfied with what I purchased. Thank you for all your advice. Thank you 11/10

Great service, we came for a demo. Bought a chair. Then ordered a ramp etc via the website. All very efficient, prompt delivery as described

Fantastic service, so helpful when choosing which wheelchair was appropriate, I will definitely buy from this company again. Thank you for your help
