Chasswheel Four X DL Wheelchair review
April 12, 2016
Our review of the Chasswheel Four X DL wheelchair - the best wheelchair for an active and versatile lifestyle?
This wheelchair is a high end piece of equipment that could possibly give you an active lifestyle again - we have seen users play a round of golf, go fishing, going hunting and just generally accessing places that they previously thought they never could.
The Stand Up model is one of three available - the full range includes;
- Standard Tilt only model
- Tilt and Lift model
- Tilt and Stand assist model
They all have four motors which power each wheel seperately - while each wheel can steer independently. The split diff axles allow for navigation of higher or rough ground and even larger stones or steps as you can see below;
Steps can be tackled too;
This leading bit of kit is not cheap but considering how it can be used in the real world - it offers real value.
The benefits of the stand assist function as given by Chasswheel are what you would expect too;
- Enhanced blood circulation
- Easier Breathing
- Reduction of spasticity and contractures
- Improves bowel and bladder function
- Bone density
- Lowers risk of pressure ulcers
- Safe movability
With all the build quality you would expect from Chasswheel and the expert help and advice available at John Preston Healthcare this is well worth seeing in the ' flesh '.
