Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The ByteTecpeak Lightweight Electric Wheelchair for Adults sits at number nine in this guide at £529.99 in black. It is one of five ByteTecpeak listings collected for the article, and on the page it is indistinguishable from the blue version sold at the same price: the same 20.5 kg, the same 12Ah/24V lithium battery, the same "500W combined motor power" and the same 4.2 stars from 60 reviews. Only the colour separates them.
The listing disagrees with itself on size, which is the more useful finding here. One field gives the dimensions as 56D x 88W x 88H cm, another gives 78 x 56 x 99 cm — the same chair, 32 cm wider in one figure and 11 cm taller in the other. The rating breakdown is odd too: it lists 100 ratings (67 five-star, 10 four-star, 12 three-star, 11 one-star) against the 60 reviews quoted in the headline. Every figure on this page comes from the Amazon listing as it was collected, not from a test of our own.
How those 60 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.2 stars.
