If the docking gizmo had an anti-theft lock it might be worth investing in. It's just too easy for someone to run up and pinch your bag. And unless the cup holder is adjustable to make it level, you can't use it for beer glasses. They didn't think that through, did they? 🤦You're better off getting a strap that's designed to prevent it being cut and putting the bag across your front. The intro would've been fab if you'd been dressed up by Jess K-F in vintage clothes. And Where's that beach with the nice accessible walkway - can you send it up to Hertfordshire for me? 😜

How did I miss this video! Sheesh! The white bag is my favorite, but I went to the site and they are sold out. 😮‍💨

i’ve been looking for something like this FOREVER! i’ve wasted so much money on trying to find a good bag to fit on my chair and this is perfect. thank you so much for sharing this!! 💕💕

Best regards, Jurek (73) from Poland, temporarily residing in Greece. I contracted polio in 1959, and I have only been using a wheelchair for 2 years and learning how to use it. I wish you joy in life

Thank you, I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user with fibromyalgia. I’ve recently realised I need to use a chair more regularly in order to regain some quality of life. Thank you for your videos, extremely useful.

I heard about this company a few months ago. What a great idea! Definitely a luxury item...but it’s going on my Christmas list! Thank you for showing what can fit in the bags!

Eeek! I've just ordered the Classic Ffora Set, in black with nickle details. I remember discovering their page last year when they were unable to ship to the UK and I fell in love with the designs as although they're made for wheelchairs, they don't look 'medical' and are actually fashionable! 🙌 Which is something that I rarely find👏 So I'm very excited to finally be able to own one! 🙌💕

Putting us first by overcharging? Kind of feels like they are taking advantage of our needs and just charging so, so much. Honestly hate it when companies do that

Exploiting your own community is NOT COOL. 🤦😤

I originally found your channel because I was looking for the perfect wheelchair friendly bag. My first video was with the little backpack. I would love to sew something that people would like and I’m learning how to sew with leather. But these are awesome! I don’t think I could top them!

@cbryce9243

Жыл бұрын

Did you get to making anything yet? That would be cool if you could sew something specifically for wheelchair users. A backpack seems awkward to me and it throughs the center of gravity off. I am interested in buying something that goes under the seat. But none of them are large enough. Something like Velcro or large snapes to hold it on and a safety strap just in case it falls off and for easy access. As an artist that uses sharp tools, I want a tool bag that won't damage the sharps, something that will be handy to grab when working on my art. Backpacks are hard to reach.

I'd probably put the docking station vertical if going to be using it for beverages!

Ooh, these would be perfect for my walker...but cost as much as the walker. LOL If I was a regular wheelchair user, I would totally get them!

That's fun, I did not know this was a thing 😶 I always DIY my accessibility hacks, because companies that design disability friendly accessories are expensive!! for my bag I either use a small clutch from moleskine (it is a hard "cover" meant for your phone) or a bum bag secured behind my legs. For water bottles, a regular water bottle holder that you would use on a bike will work 😊

Thanks so much for sharing. These look great, and I was excited to see that they actually do a bracket for the Whill CI! The Whill CI doesn't have a typically cylindrical frame, so I was stumped on where I'd get a cupholder. I was starting to think I'd have to use zip ties, but this is so much classier.

This is fantastic, I will show this to my brother Thank you, hope you're doing well great video!

Oh defo need that cup holder what an amazing product love it love the video aswell

Sounds like something I might ask for my birthday!

Your dog looks so thrilled....lol

I have been looking for a cupholder designed for wheelchair users. This is great. A matte silver design would be great for when it inevitably gets scratched. I will definitely be buying this product. A insert that has a bottom to it would be good for smaller drinks too.

Thank you for this video. I just purchased a few items, I really wanted the white active bag but they’re sold out. I will definitely be watching the website to get one.

Omg what a adorable outfit!!💖

I'm so glad you did a video on these! A friend showed me their site and I've really been wanting to get like ALLL their stuff. I'll definitely shoot you a tag on insta or something if I do with my thoughts!

Great accessories! Just what I was looking for for my new Helios H2

Have been looking for something like this as other holders get in the way when transferring thanks Gemma

Interesting concept. But for most of us it just to much and limiting. I use two bicycle water bottle holders on each downtube. 5 bucks each. So water bottles and coffee tumblers, etc, will fit perfectly. But looks perfect for those that need a sleeker clean look.

Super cool outfit! Love it! I'm also likening these bags.

The bag looks great. Cup holder wise though I have a normal bike cup holder that I attached with zip ties.

happy you found something that you can make work on your apecial chair im in a normal chair it doesn't fit many i have tried

I am about to email them to see if it can be attached to the top of the footrest or even armrest bracket of a powerchair. Thanks Gem! Looks incredible x

So cool! I was wondering if you've done a video on what type of wheelchair you have and the process of choosing the right one?

Well I know what I’ll be asking for for my next birthday! 🎁

After trying many cupholders and not getting on with any of them (for various reasons) I recently bought a Ffora cupholder and it is honestly 100x better than any of the cheaper versions I tried. Yes, they are expensive but I will no longer be buying a new one every couple of months. For me, the best thing is being able to easily remove the cupholder from the attachment dock when I'm not using it so that it isn't catching on doorframes/plants and getting in the way (or broken) when getting the chair in/out of the car. P.S. if anyone else has a chair not listed on the website if you email them they will help you find the right attachment for your chair their customer services were really helpful.

What cups fit in the cup holder?

Magnetic bags, this is genius!

The cup-holder looks good..as long as you get the cups that fit...

Love the look of cup holder my go to bottle is a systems 750 ml not sure if it would fit

Gem that cup holder is very similar to mine, the one I’m taking to Florida this August, we are going to vlog our holiday so hopefully you will see it 👨🏻‍🦽✈️🇺🇸

This is genius!!!

Even as a non wheelchair user I think magnetic bags are genius

That bag would be great for Disney!!! You could use that strap to make it into a bum bag too! I have an under chair bag but find it a bit tricky to get my legs out of the way. And the cupholder...

I was wondering if you can comfortably tuck the clamp and bag under the seat of the chair to keep the chair slim! I wonder if it could clamp onto the tubing that’s parallel to the ground too! I like this for safety reasons too :) thinking of getting one for my local Pride festival in October!

keep safe and keep well and happy

Just ordered the clamp, cup holder, and an active bag while finishing up listening to the video. I went for the nickel clamp, black cup holder, and a black and nickel active bag. This is the first system I've seen where I like both the attachment system and the style of the accessories. Yes, the essentials bags are a touch pricey, but they're leather. They would always be a spurge. The active bags and the rest of the system I feel is pretty reasonable.

I like the white purse

Hi ! My husband is in a wheelchair and we actually didn't know these types of bags and we are very interested by them. We went to their website but it seems they only deliver in the US as of today. We live in France right now and we saw that you live in UK. How did you get them and do you know if there is a mean to obtain them overseas ? Thank you so much for your videos, we just recently found your channel and they are pretty funny and ... relatable for us :D

Idk if it would work for your chair since it folds, but on mine I have a net underneath that holds all of my things

A problem with canes and walkers is that you can’t hold a cup and something else like your phone. One idea would be a bike cup holder that you put on your cane but that would be really awkward to use. BUT with this you could attach the mount and then add the cup holder when you need it or put it in your bag when you don’t!

Seriously £199 for the whole system, I think they are overcharging for the products because they know they have very little competition. They are a great idea and would make life so much easier but even with your 10% discount it’s just too expensive.

Gutted to find out it only fits manual chairs, A power chair has such limited space and doesn’t have a foot rest poll permanently attached

Sold out on most items. Sad....

jaw drops at price - they are nice, really nice, but it feels like a huge price tag for being disabled friendly, it's disappointing the attachment system isn't included when you buy a bag

bum bags, theyre great, theyre strapped to you so don't fall off and cheep and work well

Doesn't look big enough for me - I have a monster of a diabetes kit to lug around with me too

Don't keep any valuables in that..looks very easy to steal?

so great to have a girl wheels dm me

Just ordered the cupholder and tumbler! ^^ I had to wait for a response for several months (the active bag got sold out 🥲), so I recommend writing them on Instagram instead of an email first, but with a small fee they'll deliver to the Czech Republic as well, so it's worth asking if you're from the outside of the UK or USA! 🙈 ( Well, I'm hoping it'll arrive safely, but hopefully it will haha)
