Detailed description
The Alerta Bariatric Wheelchair is made with a strong double crossbar frame to give reliable support for larger users. The frame construction and reinforced cross braces help the chair stay stable while in use, and the overall package folds down to a compact size for easier transport and storage. It weighs 14.8 kg, which helps when lifting the chair into a car or moving it around the home.
Comfort is central to the seat design. The chair comes with extra‑thick reinforced upholstery to cushion the user during longer periods of sitting, and a back carry pouch is included in the upholstery for small items. The chair has padded, table‑entry armrests to allow closer approach to tables and extra support when sitting and standing.
Wheels and manoeuvrability suit everyday use on most surfaces. The chair is fitted with large, puncture‑proof 300 mm rear wheels and 200 mm front wheels, which reduce the risk of punctures and cut maintenance. Together with the frame design, these wheels help provide a steady ride indoors and out.
A few features make adjustments and transfers simpler. The height‑adjustable footrests let you set a comfortable leg position, and the seat dimensions offer a roomier seating area with a 600 mm seat width and 460 mm seat length. The wheelchair supports a maximum user weight of 182 kg (28.5 stone), so it is suitable for many bariatric users.
