Summary
Harbor 89512 uses a Superhandy portable mobility scooter for occasional restaurant outings, finding it comfortable and easy to use. The scooter weighs 35 lb, or under 30 lb with the seat and battery removed, and they cannot lift it themselves. Hypermobility makes their joints, especially in their hands, bad enough that downward slopes are difficult, and the scooter has only a hand brake. They added an alarm and pull the battery out slightly as security measures. They give no account of their ME/CFS onset, symptoms or course.
