Mobility Shop UK www.mobilityshopuk.com

I bought a mobility scooter from mobilityshopuk.com and im glad i did as i was going to buy one from the daily mail only to find out that the men who brought a scooter to show me wanted to charge £4000, luckily my grandson was with me so he looked on the computer and found mobilityshopuk.com who had the same scooter for £2400 saving me £1600. They brought it round and gave me a full demonstration explained how to charge it, i could'nt believe my luck! This company gave me what i wanted with great service.

I recently purchased a new karma wheelchair from mobilityshopuk.com. I was sure I needed a 16in chair but due to their thorough assessment it turned out that I needed an 18in chair. I placed my order on the tuesday and to my astonishment it arrived the following day in perfect condition. This new chair is far lighter and easier to manage and has features my old NHS chair didn't have.

I have recently purchased the Pride Celebrity X 4-Wheel electric mobility scooter from Mobility Shop UK, and so I thought I'd write a review on it - mainly about my research into buying this product, and our experience so far with the scooter.

Now, before I get going, I want to point out that I bought this scooter for my mother and not myself, so I have asked her about her experience with the product, and I will pass that along at the end of the review.

My research: Why did we choose this scooter?

After hours and hours of research we decided on the Pride Celebrity X4 because of the following reasons:

1) It is quite modern looking (for a mobility scooter).

2) It has simple auto-latching lock-up for easy assembly and dis-assembly (as the one who is assembling this is essential).

3) Deluxe seat (why not let her ride in style).

4) Easy to dismantle for storage and traveling (Palming her off on my siblings - Just joking)!

I also found that the Celebrity X was very well priced. I looked around a lot to try and get the best deal:

£745.00 - www.mobilityshopuk.com **

£749.00 - www.youreableshop.co.uk

£748.00 - www.mobilityone.co.uk

£749.00 - www.mobilitybuddy.co.uk

£775.00 - www.mobilitypricewatch.co.uk

We bought my mum a metallic red one, which she seems perfectly happy with.

My Mum says...

She has found this mobility scooter easy to use. It is great to drive and she loves the freedom it has given her.
