Choosing the right wheelchair is an important decision that requires several important factors to consider. The perfect wheelchair can make the lives of those affected much more comfortable, easier and worth living. An electric wheelchair – Have you ever thought about it?

Depending on your needs and type of impairment, there are some features that you should pay special attention to in the different variants offered on the wheelchair market.

What questions should you ask yourself? The first thing you should be clear about is whether the user can drive the wheelchair themselves, i.e. has the strength to do so, or whether you should opt for an electric wheelchair. When it comes to moving around with a self-propelled wheelchair or an electric wheelchair, the weight of the wheelchair itself is also very relevant. In addition, attention must be paid to the permissible load face of the device. Another important aspect is the tires, as these should differ depending on indoor or outdoor use.

The alternative to these are the electric wheelchairs mentioned above, where you should make sure to find an electric motor that is perfectly tailored to your personal needs. What criteria should you consider when buying an electric wheelchair? Steering, turning ability with regard to the size of the apartment and drive and type of wheels are other important aspects to enable an optimized driving experience.
