22 Tilt Wheelchairs

 

Focus CR
Question
: What makes a great tilt wheelchair?
Answer: The tilt wheelchair configuration that best meets the needs of the specific client.

With a wide range of wheelchairs offering packages including seating components, we have reconfigured our Manual Tilt Wheelchair Reference Sheet to provide details on these packages.

Newer models added include the Focus CR and the SR45 both using the rocker style tilt in space.

The Focus CR is unique in that it provides an onchair tool to fine tune the centre of gravity for the users and their seating systems. Optimizing the centre of gravity makes the chair effortless to move in and out of tilt. Two benefits include reducing risk of caregiver back injury and the sudden falling sensation for users when the tilt is engaged.

The SR45 is a perfect choice for ease of tilt and maneuverability in tight spaces. The SR45 has 45 degrees of patented and proven rotation-in-space technology that allows for a smooth tilt motion around the user's centre of gravity. SelfCare offers a complete seating package for the SR45 with a Whitmyer headrest and Jay Union Back and cushion for $3,295!

Notes re: Manual Tilt Wheelchair Reference Sheet

Reference prices are package prices using components from the same manufacturer. Your SelfCare representative can provide other alternatives if required. The reference price has the following specifications:

  • 18x18 wheelchair with tilt and standard no charge options
  • full length height adjustable arms
  • swing away footrests & heel loops
  • seat pan
  • anti-tippers
  • brake extensions
  • headrest when a no charge option

The reference price is NOT the base price of the tilt chair.

 

What is Express or Quick Ship? Most manufacturers offer an express or quick ship version which is a package offering of standard features with limited options. If you can make these configurations work, the benefit is usually lower cost.
