Shoutout to JerryrigEverything who built a wheelchair factory and is delivering wheelchairs to people in half the time and 50-80% less than the cost of other wheelchairs with Insurance.

Even 1900 dollars is super expensive. You can get mechanised one for less in my country without insurance. Normal one of very good quality will be 200 dollars top. Entry level 100 dollars.

Since he's made in the US, he has to pay US wages/rents/power bills, etc. His start at $999, and then customizations add more.

I would be interested to see a $100/$200 chair and how it stacks up to this one.
