  • Battery is easy to drop out for the plane. Customer service was first class when I had a quick question. Sunrise Medical have clearly put thought into the design. Perfect bit of kit for travelling, can't fault it.

  • Battery is easy to drop out for the plane. The chap on the phone took the time to make sure I ordered the right one. Best money we've spent in a long time.
