Update 10/2018 - Many Flights with the Navigator and it's a joy to travel with. Fitting in normal trunks, the NAV travel well under all conditions from private to UBER Huge. The latter being ONLY unsuccess because the Yukon was jacked up. I have a small CURBSIDER that lifts chair into my SUV - perfect. Bolts and plastic covers are due for replacement and tightening. Also, the plastic covers etc need to be replaced. DO NOT wash seat cover on normal cycle - it will fall apart. Gentle cycle ok. Overall Awesome purchase and I would do it all over again!!
The chair arrived 4 days early and I had it unpacked and working within 10 minutes w/o reading a single instruction in the user manual. The chair was well packed and shipped via FEDEX - quality delivery. The chair is sturdy and well-built. The rear-wheel solenoids are very responsive and, with the speed control, the chair adapts well to both indoor and outdoor use. The Li Fe battery is shockingly small and lightweight for the advertised range and I will be putting battery life and durability to the test so stay tuned for more endurance input.
The seat cushion and back are "OK" - I wish the foam was a bit thicker on the back but the seat is reasonably comfortable and wide enough for my 250 Lbs. I will look at putting some memory foam in the seat and back cushion so extended periods in the chair are more comfortable.
The chair folds and unfolds with ease and I'll be experimenting with how best to load and unload the chair in my SUV and rental cars. Overall marks are very high and I recommend the chair to anyone who needs a great chair that can travel.
Loads of room, well constructed, easy to operate - this is a great power chair. I'll keep you posted on durability and endurance over the next few weeks.

Customer Review: Forcemech has given me my life back!

Freedom. Sturdy frame. Easy controls. Cushions aren’t great.
Let me start by saying I love this chair. I have Ehlers Danlos and POTS and between the two I can’t do anything that requires prolong standing or walking. This chair has given me my freedom back. The controls are easy to use and understand. The batteries can be charged two different way which is convenient. The wheels are nice and big and I’ve had no problems in grass, light gravel, tile, hardwood, carpet, vinyl, blacktop and a baseball field infield and outfield. The frame is very sturdy and well made. The cons are that the chair is heavy at around 60-65lbs. It folds up easily but the foot rest constantly falls down and there’s no way to lock it into a folded position. The folded position also makes it hard to pull. You have to bend over which makes your posture wrong and could hurt your back. We carry it in a van and it just fits through the side door with the seat stowed away. It doesn’t fit in the back without folding the back seat down because it has to lie flat or it bangs into the back window and tries to unfold. The thickness of the padding in the cushions is subpar and I can feel the edges of the straps through them. After a while it is uncomfortable. I will be adding more padding or making new cushions soon. With all that I would still buy it and I love it flaws and all. Oh and I do wish the manufacturer’s website was more informative. I’ve been trying to find out prices and how to get extra batteries and a cup holder. It would be nice to have contact info or questions answered here on Amazon.
