Comfort wheelchairs — how to choose

A comfort wheelchair with a headrest is needed when the user requires comprehensive care. Such wheelchairs have thicker padding, an adjustable seat angle and the ability to provide a semi-reclined position.

Intended use

These wheelchairs suit users who spend a long time in the wheelchair and need greater comfort and support, including a headrest and a change of position.

What to look for

Such features usually increase the weight of the wheelchair, so it is important to consider environmental obstacles: lifting the wheelchair into a car and public transport, moving up ramps, lift access and the width of doorways. Also note the adjustment options (angle, footrests, headrest) and the seat width.

Quality and support

All wheelchairs are CE-marked medical devices. Our specialists will help you choose a suitable configuration.
