Arnie – The perfect companion for travelling with a wheelchair
Christina M.:
I have been dependent on a wheelchair since 2021 and traveling always presents special challenges for me. With the Arnie, I have finally found a solution that makes many things easier for me. What is particularly practical is that it is easy to attach and flexible - I attached it to the push handles of my wheelchair because it makes it easier to pull the suitcase.
Arnie is a real asset when travelling. I was able to transport my hand luggage (approx. 8 kg) without any problems, even over uneven paths. The case can be easily pulled around corners, and uphill is no problem either. Thanks to the fixed connection in combination with movable parts at the front and back, the case always remains stable behind the wheelchair - even during quick changes of direction or tight bends. Driving downhill or quickly around corners also works without any problems, the case remains safe and well guided.
For larger suitcases without a motor, however, it becomes a bit more strenuous, especially on inclines or longer distances. Nevertheless, it helps me to be more independent and I really appreciate that.
Tip: When you attach your Arnie for the first time, it's best to get help to ensure that it sits firmly. After that, you can simply leave it permanently attached to the wheelchair. This saves time and the hassle of having to readjust it.
Conclusion: Arnie is the ideal travel companion for wheelchair users. He offers a simple way to transport luggage safely and makes everyday life much easier. Especially when travelling, he makes many things less complicated and gives you back a bit of freedom.
