Ugo Atlas Heavy Duty Steel Self Propelled Wheelchair
A strong extra wide steel self propelled wheelchairExcl. VAT: £184.99 Incl. VAT: £221.99
Bariatric or heavy duty wheelchairs are designed to handle the increased weight of an obese or morbidly obese user. The needs of a bariatric user require the wheelchair to have special design and structural features to provide the extra wide seat and depth and of course strength. The overall weight of these heavy duty models tends to increase as the wheelchairs are built using components that can bear the added weight. Comfort is also key as larger users can tend to suffer pain due to pressure more easily. One final consideration when selecting your bariatric wheelchair is the type of wheel and tyre. Slid or PU tyres are often deemed most suitable on heavy duty wheelchairs.
