Product Description

For bariatric patients, senior citizens, and recovering adults who experience uncomfortable pelvic crowding in standard chairs, the ProBasics bariatric wheelchair 22 inch seat width provides a secure, spacious mobility foundation. Built on a reinforced slide-tube structural steel chassis coated in a textured silver vein finish, this heavy-duty manual wheelchair supports occupant weights up to 450 lbs while maintaining total frame stability during daily home, clinic, and hospital use.

Engineered for personalized seating alignment, this 22" × 18" bariatric model includes pneumatic piston-assisted elevating leg rests that lift smoothly to infinite angles, allowing users to relieve leg edema and support post-surgical recovery. Removable padded desk-length armrests allow occupants to pull close to kitchen tables and desks, lifting off easily for unobstructed lateral sliding-board transfers into beds. A built-in dual-axle system allows caregivers to drop the seat height down to hemi level for foot-assisted walking, while 8" × 2" semi-pneumatic front casters with 3-position vertical adjustments and 24-inch rear urethane wheels ensure smooth, puncture-proof mobility across indoor tile and outdoor pathways.

Who Benefits Most & Practical Applications

  • Bariatric Adults & Senior Citizens: Generous 22-inch seating width provides comfortable pelvic space and prevents lateral hip chafing against side clothing guards.
  • Post-Surgical Orthopedic Patients: Smooth pneumatic piston leg rests elevate the legs to exact angles, helping reduce joint swelling and accommodating leg casts.
  • Foot-Propelling Walkers: The dual-axle system allows caregivers to drop the seat to hemi level so users can touch the floor to walk the chair forward.
  • Dining & Desk Work: Desk-length padded arms slide under standard tables, while detaching completely for sliding-board transfers to bed.
  • Hospitals & Long-Term Care: Non-porous vinyl seating and a powder-coated steel frame withstand high-frequency sanitization protocols.

Simple Setup, Adjustment & Care Guidance

To unfold the wheelchair, place hands flat on the outer seat rails and press firmly downward until the frame opens completely and the padded vinyl seat is flat. Slide the elevating leg rests onto the front frame pins and swing them inward until the latch clicks. Lift the leg rests to the desired elevation; to lower, squeeze the pneumatic release lever and guide the footplates down. To set the chair to hemi height, unbolt the rear wheel axle pins, remount them into the upper frame bracket holes, and adjust the 8-inch front caster forks to level the frame. Always push both manual wheel locks forward before attempting standing or sliding transfers. Clean the silver vein steel frame and vinyl upholstery using a soft cloth dampened with mild soap or healthcare surface wipes, drying thoroughly with a clean towel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a 22-inch seat width recommended for bariatric adults?

It provides two to four extra inches of hip room compared to standard adult chairs, preventing skin breakdown, bruising, and lateral hip pressure during daily sitting.

How does the pneumatic piston elevating leg rest system work?

Instead of clicking into fixed notches, the pneumatic piston allows continuous, infinite elevation angles, letting the user raise their legs to the exact position that relieves knee strain and swelling.

Can this bariatric wheelchair be converted to hemi height for foot propulsion?

Yes, the dual-axle system lets technicians mount the rear 24-inch wheels into a higher bracket hole, lowering the seat so occupants can place feet flat on the floor to pull the chair forward.

How do the removable desk-length arms assist with transfers?

The shortened desk-length profile rolls under dining tables, and both arms detach completely to create an open, flat side profile for lateral sliding-board transfers to beds.

What total doorway clearance is needed for this 22-inch wide seat chair?

With a 22-inch seat, the overall wheel-to-wheel width measures 30 inches, meaning standard interior doorways measuring 32 inches or wider provide ample clearance.

What maintenance do the 24-inch rear urethane tires require?

The solid urethane tires are puncture-proof and flat-free, eliminating the need to check tire pressure, patch tubes, or use air pumps.
