The construction and adjustment possibilities meet the
needs from various bariatric bodytypes, making it the best
for this type of users.
The steel frame gives the XXL-Rehab Eclipse wheelchair
maximum strength and rigedness, and therefore also makes
it a long lasting wheelchair.
The frame is designed so most of the userweight is carried
on the rear wheels. The wheels are especially made for this
wheelchair; they are extra hard and solid making propulsion
and steering unbelievably easy and with very little loss of
energy!

The seat pan is also solid - because anything else would be
hazardous! Various medical conditions demand a solid seatpan
(fractures, hemiplegia, lateralshifts etc) but also giving
a bariatric user a solid seat pan facilitates a good posture
and activeness in the chair. A canvas seat is bound to be a
failure, as the canvas will elongate under the weight.
The XXL-Rehab Eclipse Wheelchair has adjustable seat
depth, seat height, seat to floor angle and seat to back
angle. All of this makes it easy to adjust to any user! The
adjustment possibilities give the user a chance of staying
active in propelling the chair, to get in and out of the chair
and maybe also walk the chair.

The back is constructed so users with a protruding behind
can get good support to their lumbar spine, a huge problem
rarely met by any other chair!
Front wheels are placed in front of the seat pan to ensure
an anterior anti-tip, which is very important taking into
consideration that most bariatric users have a lot of weight
placed in front of them. The anterior anti-tip makes it
possible for the user to get in and out of the wheelchair
without the risk of tipping.
Different types of front rigging complete the adjustment
possibilities.
