Heavy-Duty Wheelchair, Elevating Leg Rests

Engineered specifically for bariatric support and clinical positioning needs, this heavy-duty wheelchair combines a reinforced dual-crossbrace frame with an expansive 22-inch seat width and a weight capacity of up to 450 lbs. The included elevating leg rests feature padded calf pads and infinite angle positioning, essential for managing lower extremity edema, post-surgical casts, or circulation challenges. Heavy-duty vinyl or embossed nylon upholstery resists stretching and provides hygienic, cleanable comfort. Medicare Part B covers bariatric wheelchairs when weight and clinical criteria are certified by your physician. Reliable DME handles all physician documentation, benefit verification, and same-day home delivery across DuPage, Will, and Cook counties.
