Who it suits
Clients of larger body size who need a wheelchair built for their weight and width from the frame up. The Gusto bariatric wheelchair is made for bariatric use, with a reinforced frame, a wide seat and upholstery that carries the load across the full sitting surface.
For the client, the point is a chair that feels stable and does not flex under them, so sitting and transferring stop being a source of anxiety. A seat that matches their hip width also means the pelvis can settle in the middle of the seat, which protects the skin at the sides and makes a long sit tolerable.
For carers and clinicians, the chair gives a safe base for assisted transfers and for moving a client between rooms, appointments and vehicles. Getting the fit right matters more here than with any other chair.
