choosing the right standard weight wheelchair?

  • Choosing a standard wheelchair is best decided when the user who will be operating the chair measures their immediate needs, including lifestyle activities, the amount of time on a daily basis that the chair will be used, and the situation and criteria of their condition.
  • Different conditions can dictate the type of wheelchair you will need, depending on your needs and level of mobility. Full time wheelchair users may need a different type of wheelchair than part time users, depending on daily activities and lifestyle choices.
  • We have the best standard weight wheelchairs on the market. You can purchase lightweight folding wheelchairsfrom the leading wheelchair manufacturer in the country. We also provide ultra lightweight wheelchairs that are easy to fold and store. Light wheelchairs typically are made from aluminum but sometimes from steel or a combination of both metals, which amounts to their less than standard weight.
