Great Rant! Send it to IKEA — you have nothing to lose, or gain, except maybe guilt-induced meatballs! — When I am Queen of the Universe I shall decree that every retail establishment with more than 10,000 square feet establish an ongoing relationship with durable medical equipment suppliers. No insurance company will pay for used equipment. DME folks often get wheelchairs, rollators, canes back when the insured passes on. In my world, the stores pay a monthly fee for the DME suppliers to maintain a steady supply of user-quality mobility devices. (The ones stores have now are absolute bottom-of-the-line, super-uncomfortable, super-unergonomic.) Everybody wins, and potential customers will have a chance to test-drive the equipment and learn what they want. —
