What type of mobility device is right for me?
Mobility Scooters are equipped with a handlebar/tiller feature that is used to drive the device. A tiller can be adjusted to each user but if you have limited arm strength or it would be uncomfortable to have your arms outstretched operating the scooter.

A Power Chair is operated with a joystick that is comfortably located at the end of the chair's arm. You operate a power chair by small movements of the joystick, side-to-side or front to back. If you have limited fine motor skills operating a power wheelchair may be challenging.
What is the difference between a travel and non-travel unit?
A travel scooter can be quickly disassembled into sections and is designed to be hand-loaded into a vehicle. That said, the weight of each section and one’s ability to handle and lift that weight, should be considered.

Full Size or non-travel units have many other benefits such as higher ground clearances, faster speeds and longer battery ranges just to name a few. However, a vehicle lift or ramp is required to transport these units.

They are ideal for people with limited mobility who need a spacious seat and a powerful motor. A power wheelchair usually comes with a joystick that controls the speed and direction of the chair.

The Benefits of Full-Size Electric Wheelchairs

Full-size power chairs offer many benefits, including:

  • Increased mobility. Full-size power wheelchairs allow people with mobility issues to traverse long distances per single charge.
  • Independence. Power chairs are easy to control, which is great for users who are not strong enough to use a manual wheelchair.
  • Comfort. Full-size wheelchairs are designed for comfort, with features like adjustable seats and leg rests.
  • Adjustability. Electric wheelchairs can be customized to meet the needs of each individual user.

The Major Types of Full-Size Electric Wheelchairs

Full-size power wheelchairs come with a rear-wheel drive, front-wheel drive, or center-wheel drive. Rear-wheel drive chairs are the most common type of power chair. They are highly stable and super easy to maneuver, making them an amazing choice for indoor use. Front-wheel drive chairs are more maneuverable than rear-wheel drive chairs. This makes the vehicle friendly to outdoor use. Center-wheel electric chairs offer the best of both worlds, with stability and maneuverability. They are also easier to turn in tight spaces.
