Chair Scooter
Buying The Right 4 Wheel Mobility Scooter
Advances in Mobility Aids including Mobility Scooters, power lift chairs, and electric wheelchairs have returned accessibility, freedom, and independence to many seniors suffering from mobility issues. With technological advances occurring across all mobility options, the problem now exists where there are now so many quality choices that a thorough review of mobility options and needs assessments is an absolute requirement to ensure that a purchase of a mobility product ends up being the best solution for each purchaser. There is a broad spectrum of user options in both the 3 wheel and the 4 wheel categories. The four wheel category has both a regular standard and a Heavy Duty class of mobility scooter.
The regular standard of four wheel mobility scooters are best suited toward outdoor use due to a much wider turning radius than 3 wheel scooters resulting from two front wheels. Built to heavier standards than 3 wheel mobility scooters, these offer much greater stability, greater top speeds and longer battery life. These mobility scooters are suitable for rougher terrain and inclines due to their even weight distribution and heavier construction. The one drawback to the heavier construction is that these scooters are typically too heavy and bulky for transportation in the trunk of a car and instead require transport via a scooter lift or small trailer.
Heavy duty mobility scooters are designed to carry individuals weighing in the range of 300 to 500 pounds. Like other 4 wheel mobility scooters, the heavy duty scooters are usually transported with a lift or trailer.Typical designs include rear Wheel Drive to sustain heavier weights, well built suspensions, reinforced frames, anti-tip equipment, a variety of seat options, and more power than lighter versions.
Electric scooters are the next generation of mobility options for people with conditions that restrict their ability to get around. With the wide variety of options, consulting a professional is the best way to ensure that the purchase of a mobility scooter meets the needs of the buyer.
