What Does It Mean to Have a Chair that’s Heavy-Duty?

Regaining your independence and living as if it is an adventure means you have a wealth of mobility options. A heavy-duty mobility scooter may be the right choice for your lifestyle.

Defining a heavy-duty mobility scooter

You can easily tell a heavy-duty scooter from other types of scooters. They usually run on larger tires that are solid or flat-free. Other models may also have pneumatic tires. Each tire has durable tread for rugged terrain. Models can come with three or four tires.

Heavy-duty mobility scooters are designed to be more durable and reliable than travel or full-size mobility scooters. They have bigger body frames and bigger batteries. These batteries allow for extended outdoor use.

Owing to their larger size, most heavy-duty scooters can be difficult to move through crowds and tight spaces. However, the larger size allows users up to 500 pounds who have challenges standing or walking for long periods of time to regain their independence.

Selecting the best heavy-duty model

Take weight, height and intended use into consideration when shopping online for heavy-duty mobility scooters. Units must be compatible with your lifestyle and weigh 50 pounds more than what you weigh.

Taller users should have tall seat heights for plenty of leg space on the go. Some models offer upgrades like a rain canopy and a dual seat. Review each unit’s specifications carefully to make sure there is a great fit.

Heavy-duty units are powerful, durable and versatile. They can travel over all types of terrains, off-road terrain included, with larger wheels, a higher ground clearance and reinforced bumpers.

If you love spending time outdoors and want a powerful unit, a heavy-duty scooter is for you. Explore different models from Marc’s Mobility to enhance your active lifestyle.

Marc’s Mobility was created by my Father Marc in 1995 when I was 7 years old. I have grown up in and around this industry and from an early age would clean, drive and repair these units with Marc. I graduated high school in 2006 and headed to Gainesville, FL to get a Business degree at the University of Florida. Once graduated, I moved back to Lakeland FL to help my father grow the business to what it is today.

I have been full-time in this industry for almost 12 years as of 2022. When I graduated college the company was a small 3 member operation. At the beginning, it was my primary role to inspect, repair, and prepare units for shipping all across the US. As we have grown to over a 10 man operation, I now oversee all aspects of the business but understand each and every role here at Marc’s Mobility. I believe what makes us successful is we do our best to treat everyone we interact with as if they were family.
