If you work or play in downtown Winston-Salem then you have likely seen the Bird electric scooters…read moreparked on the sidewalks. They are everywhere in downtown, including 4th, 5th and Trade Streets. You can also find them in the West End, Hanes Park and along some side streets. If you haven't been on a scooter in a while, or ever, it can take a few minutes to get use to. Meaning balancing, turning, stopping, etc. When you get past this, I will say these are a hell of a lot of fun. These damn things will go up to 15 miles an hour. Operating it is basic, steering wheel has a button on the right is to go, break on the left and a bell. A few notes - They do not go up steep hills very well - You are technically not supposed to ride on the sidewalks but I see people doing it all the time. - Be courteous to people walking. These are very quiet and folks walking may not hear you come up on them. Don't be a johnson and blow by folks! - There is no cupholder for your beer. They need to rectify that on the next model. - Use the Bird app to rent. It is easy to do. Bird app tells you the battery life and can help you find available Birds. - You can only rent one at a time, so if you have multiple people then they have to use their own smart phone to rent one - Unlike the bikes for rent downtown, you don't have to take the Bird back where you rented it. Just leave it in an appropriate and safe place (not blocking businesses or sidewalks) when you are done. Again, these are fun as hell. Recommend, but just be safe with them. How it works - Download the Bird app to your smartphone - Open the app to find the nearest Bird scooter - Scan the barcode on the scooter - Select start to ride - Select payment method (Apple Pay accepted and cards) and scan your drivers license - Note, you only have to select payment method and scan your drivers license the first time you rent one. It remembers this the next time. - Hop one and take off - $1 to start and 20 cents a minute - When done, select End Ride on the app and leave the Bird scooter somewhere safe on the sidewalk The app does have instructions on how to use the scooter and how to park it when done.

Life changing!

They helped change my life with the NICEST mobility scooter! I even got a lift so at the push of a button it's so easy for one person to load and unload the scooter. Life is too short to not use everything available to keep moving and doing the things we love. Thank you so much!

What began as an internet search for a bariatric lift chair eventually led me to No Excuse Medical…read more I'll explain: Upon selecting the chair that I wanted I then set out to get the best deal. I received quotes from some of the major distributors and immediately read their reviews. Shockingly in their reviews at least two of the people that submitted reviews had mentioned No Excuse Medical and the very favorable experience they had. Having nothing to lose, I decided to give them a call. Not only did No Excuse Medical match the lowest bid I was able to obtain but also saved me a considerable amount on a 5 year home warranty I purchased. Also, and most importantly they had my chair at my home within 7 days! I can't say enough good about my experience with No Excuse and would HIGHLY recommend them.

Fantastic dealer! They thoroughly explored all options for power lift chairs and guided us through…read morethe process of selection. They maintain an excellent selection of chairs assembled, powered and ready for customers to try.

I cannot recommend Brian highly enough. I called him to fix my adjustable bed before I had surgery…read moreand was required to sleep in a reclining/sitting position. After listening to the 'symptoms', he advised me to first contact the company to see if they would send parts before he made his initial visit and charged a consultation fee. Saving me money even before I officially became a customer. The company sent the more commonly 'breakable' parts. We scheduled an appointment based on the delivery date and I arranged for my husband to be home to help move the king size mattress. The day before the planned repair, my husband's work schedule changed and he could not be available. I called Brian to see if we would need to reschedule but he said we'd keep the original appointment and he would find a helper. He arrived promptly the next day and worked through trouble-shooting the electronic parts sent. Unfortunately the problem turned out to be one of the motors which is rare. He called the company and arranged for the motor to be shipped to my home. It arrived at 2:00 PM the day before my surgery. I called Brian and he said that if I were able to call after I got home the next day from surgery, he would work me into his schedule. I called him around 11:00 and he came at 4:00 and had my bed working in 30 minutes and I could use my bed the night of surgery. Brian is dependable, reliable and provides extraordinary service.

I explained when I needed it delivered to my hotel exactly. it didn't arrive, I called Brandon was absolutely rude, said " I couldn't read your mind about when you wanted it. what do you expect." I told him it was on the order exactly. He agreed to deliver it. We drove it to the bus at the curb. it never started again. We left it at hotel, asked Brandon to come. He came, replaced battery , I asked him to wait 15 minutes until I got to hotel to demonstrate how to use it. He refused. He responded to my complaint "This ain't no valet service. I can't stand around here. The next morning (it remained plugged in all night). It ran long enough to put on bus, but when we got to Black Mountain it wouldn't start. Following his instructions my bus driver removed and reset the battery to no avail. I asked Brandon to come get it and bring another cart. He says he returned to hotel and it was working fine. I said obviously we need instruction on using. He refused. So I paid for 2 days, never got to use it. He agreed to refund half (one day) rental. I think it is time to call American Express for assistance. I don't recommend this business.
