  The lift chair showed that the cord that runs from remote to chair would get extremely hot. Unplugged and notified ************ which sold it to me. They said remote should not be getting hot. Was told that if it continued since ************ had been bought out by ******************* that I would have to contact Golden Technologies. I contacted was put through *** and they stated that I would have to purchase a new remote for $160.39. Stated that chair was purchased in June or July of 2022. They stated that serial number was for a 2020 manufactured date so 3 year warranty was not available. Was told that if didn't like response to contact Golden Technologies. I did. Treated even worse. Pharmacy wont help, *** wont help, and Golden Technologies wont help yet I have a $3000 lift chair that is in the reclined position that will not close. Told me if I didn't like price to look online and purchase aftermarket remote. Good Luck. All I want is a remote that works for this chair so it can be closed and used without a heat problem in the cord. (Fire hazard from what I was told by a firefighter). Just want the remote that wont cause my house to burn down and it works.

  Purchased Golden Lift Chair April 28, 2022 from Pill Box Pharmacy in Plantation. Chair was defective and was exchanged on June 27, 2022. Recurring problem reported again on Aug. 26, 2022.Told to contact Golden: objected since they were the ones that sold me chair. Supposedly ordered new chair and delivered such chair on Oct. 17th, 2022 with my paying delivery charge of $100!!!Lift chair continues with same problem of lack of filling in recliner as well as threads debilatating since onset. June 27, 2024 sent email to ******* Golden and still have not heard back. I will not Pill Box Pharmacy because I don't know what chair they brought that does not have a serial number. I am 79 years old and live from social security income and having paid ******* for a chair that would help me with my physical ailments was quite a sacrifice. I have been sold and exchanged a lemon!!! It has been years that I have been battling to get an adequate chair. I don't know what other resources I could use. I cannot afford a lawyer and don't have any monetary resources. I am hoping this might give me some resolution. Thank you.

  On 1/26/2024 I received my $2,400 Golden Technologies mobility scooter bought from Spinlife. Within a week it was blatantly obvious there was a problem with the power delivery system. We had new batteries shipped to us on 2/6 (where my daughter had to change out the packs for me - required a screwdriver and actual maintenance to get them fixed). Did NOT fix the issue at all. By 2/28 a service technician had been out 3 times and still couldnt figure out the problem (he determined it was the upper dash console and ordered that part then). On 3/9 my family went to *********** thinking it would be fine because my mobility scooter had finally been fixed! Not the case at all!!! After 7 hrs and 8 miles (and 2 hrs spent charging at lunch) it started to act funny by randomly dying and the battery beeping at us but then jumping back to fully charged. Very confusing when the model we picked and spent extra money on was supposed to last up to 18 miles in a day so 8 miles is not even close!! We didnt know what to think so we left the park, of course it completely died on us in the parking lot and my daughter had to push it!! Not okay at all. We got home and assumed we must of not charged it properly the night before (how stupid of us!!). We went back to ****** on 4/20 where the day was even worse than the previous experience! After 3 hrs the scooter died and wouldnt turn back on. It eventually did turn on and we made back to the entrance for it to die and have to be pushed to the car (AGAIN!!!). By 4/26 I was told I needed to ship the scooter back to Golden so their technicians could take it apart and determine the fix. Golden wont send us a new unit even though it is VERY obvious that this is a lemon! Box was supposed to be shipped asap and it has now been 2 weeks with no box or call with an update. I am heavily mobility impaired and on federal disability because of it so buying this scooter on a fixed income was incredibly hard and took months to save for!

  Both of our Golden MaxiComfort PR535 lift chairs came with defective under-cushions which makes both chair seats list to the left. We bought these chairs on 9/15/21 before our house was built and have sat in these chairs and used them gently since they were delivered in June, ******************************************************* Even though the chairs listed to the left, we continued to use them without calling about the problem because we had many other more pressing problems dealing with our new house and our many medical problems. Repair man, *********************** from Southern Mobility came on 4-22-2024 to fix them and learned that the problem was the way that the lower cushions were manufactured for both chairs.. We paid $5,823.68 to Southern Mobility in *******, **, their vendor, for two lift chairs. Southern Mobility contacted Golden Technologies to pay for the repair which comes to $1,116.00. So far, they have refused.

  I have a scooter at my residence in Md and I wanted a second one for my winter home.my mother is 84 and have mobility issues. The scooter arrived in January unfortunately when my daughter and I went out for our first trip, the tiller broke. I have been trying to resolve this sense. Golden tech will not replace the scooter and said they would fix it. However, now they say the part is on back order. Their box has the logo carry on with life. This is not so since my mother has been waiting to get on with life since January. I purchased thru Spinlife who has been helpful but its the manufacturer who wont fix the problem. I called Golden Tech today and said I was not satisfied and was told they cannot tell me about the part and I need to speak to Spinlife. I would think the manufacturer could resolve this quickly by replacing the scooter. There is no date of shipment for the part. Very discouraging situation since we are a repeat customer of the Buzz around scooter. I am afraid it wont be resolved while she is in ******* for the winter months. Please help.

  My mother purchased a lift chair/zero gravity chair from *** ****** ***** in Sayre, PA on 08/18/2022. The chair was manufactured by Golden Technologies. The model # is ****** with serial # **************. She paid $1,400.00 for the chair. Insurance didn't cover the cost. The chair never functioned properly from the beginning. We called *** ****** in nov and they sent a tech out to look at the chair but he said he didn't know anything about the mechanics of the chair. The functions of the chair have continued to worsen over time. The chair does not work as a lift chair and the foot of the chair is stuck in a partial upright position. The back of the chair does not raise to an upright position. My mother is 80 and disabled and needs a fully functioning lift chair. I called Golden tech for several days before I was able to get through to them but was transferred to *** ********* which is a third party warranty company. I was told they would call me back the next day. I did not hear back from them so I began calling them for an answer. Everyday I would have to leave my phone # and a recording said I would be called back. It took them a week to contact me again and then they stated it would be $175 just to have someone come out to diagnose the problem. It would be an additional cost to have them actually come back and fix the chair. I don't feel she should have to spend that money to get a chair that functions as guaranteed. The chair is not even a yr old and my mother is a very petite woman so it is definitely not an issue of abusing the chair. She needs a chair that works and does not have time to keep going back and forth between Golden tech and *** to resolve this issue. I feel the company should either repair the chair at no additional charge or send someone to pickup the chair and issue a refund so my mother can purchase a chair that functions as it should. This chair should ease my mothers life and provide comfort not cause her unneeded stress.
