Product lines
Evolving from an existing family business in 1986, Pride began focusing solely on the manufacture of power lift chairs. By 1992, Pride extended its product line to include scooters, with options and accessories.
Within 4 years, Pride entered the powered wheelchair market with the release of the[citation needed] Jazzy model with a mid-wheel drive. In time, Pride entered the rehab market with its Quantum division.
Pride product lines include the Synergy Seating cushion line, TRU-Balance Power Positioning systems, and the Go-Go Travel Mobility Scooter line.
Software Piracy
In June 2007, Pride Mobility Products Corp. settled with the Business Software Alliance by paying a $380,000 for using unlicensed copies of Adobe, Autodesk, Microsoft, and Symantec software. [1] [2]
