Avant Self Propelled Wheelchair-Silver

Product details

The Avant Self-Propelled Wheelchair is built around a high-strength steel frame that gives a reassuring feel underfoot while remaining practical to handle. With a weight capacity of 113.4 kg (17.8 Stone) it supports many everyday users, and the unit weight of 15.87 kg (35 lb) keeps the chair light enough for lifting into a car with assistance. The overall footprint is compact at an overall width of 635 mm so it manoeuvres comfortably in most hallways and through standard doorways.

Comfort comes from a comfortable, adjustable seat and a supportive backrest, together with padded armrests that help reduce pressure on the forearms during propulsion. The seat offers a sensible balance of space and support with a seat width of 406 mm (16") and a seat height of 482 mm (19"), which assist with transfers and a stable seating position.

Mobility is straightforward thanks to the large 24" rear wheels (609 mm) that make self-propulsion easier on level ground and the self-propelling design that gives the user direct control. The chair folds flat for storage into compact dimensions of 939 x 635 x 304 mm, helping when loading into a car or stowing at home. Adjustable footrests and a sensible armrest height let you tailor the fit to the user.
