A Travel Power Wheelchair is a model that can be disassembled for easy portability. This wheelchair will work very well for those individuals who have limited space in which to maneuver, such as apartment dwellers. It also functions well in situations that are outside of the home, such as malls or airports. The seat, base and battery pack of this chair can be removed so that it can be transferred to different locations. Some lifting is necessary when disassembling, as the heaviest part of the chair will be approximately 35 pounds.
A Folding Power Wheelchair is also portable but is designed for more comfort to the occupant, with seating that will accommodate pressure-management cushions and armrests that have full coverage. This type of wheelchair will function well in many environments, indoors and outdoors. The chair can be transported to other locations by disconnecting the batteries, weighing about 35 pounds, and then folding the frame, which is approximately 45 pounds. Even though a Folding Power Wheelchair is portable, it does take a little bit of lifting and strength to place it in the trunk of a vehicle.
A Center-Wheel Drive Wheelchair is perfect for those who need to maneuver in small areas. This wheelchair does not have the portability of other models but makes up for it in maneuverability. It can be transported to other locations with a van that has a vehicle-lift mechanism. The captain's seat of this model has an elevating option, making it very easy to reach sinks, counters and other locations that might normally be awkward in a wheelchair.
A Heavy Duty Electric Wheelchair is designed for those individuals of a heavier weight, up to 650 pounds. This type of wheelchair is available in several models, such as the Folding Power Wheelchair and the Center-Wheel Drive model. |
