Quantum 1450 Powerchair

With a 42.8 stone (266 kg) weight capacity, the Quantum 1450 is our highest capacity bariatric powered wheelchair, rigorously designed and tested to cater to heavier people in comfort. Featuring front-wheel drive to ensure safe weight distribution, it has an outstanding turning radius, making it much more manoeuvrable indoors for a chair of its size than you would expect. Offering both Quantum's Synergy and Contoured seating systems, it can be set up to provide a perfect fit, whilst also allowing room for adjustment in case of fluctuations in weight.

Delivery Information

Built to order

Prescriptive powerchairs such as this are built to order following an assessment with one of our Prescriptive Assessors. This allows us to measure up the wheelchair user so that their powerchair provides a perfect fit for them, as well as demonstrating and assessing for the various seating options. Prescriptive powered wheelchairs can have a vast range of seating options, including powered seating functions such as lift, tilt and recline, and can be fitted with specialist seating solutions such as pressure relieving cushions and posture-supporting backrests.

Assessments

We can carry out assessments either at our Chessington HQ where you will have the opportunity to try out our full range of products, or at your home address where we can also assess the environment you will be using the wheelchair in.

Our Prescriptive Assessors are experienced with all aspects of the powered wheelchairs we supply, and can demonstrate and assess for all the options available. Should you wish to have a clinical input as well, for example if you require complex seating solutions, then we can arrange to assess alongside one of our partnered Occupational Therapists - there is a charge for this service.

Process

Following your consultation, we will provide a quote for the powered wheelchair (or wheelchairs) as assessed with you. When you are ready to order we will need to take a 50% non-refundable deposit to commence the build. Prescriptive powerchairs tend to take 2 - 5 weeks to be built - we will advise you of the current build time at the time of order, and keep you updated as the build progresses.

Once your wheelchair has been built, it can be collected from our Chessington HQ, or we can arrange delivery to your home address. Our product specialist will set up your equipment, making any adjustments necessary to ensure that your chosen powerchair is perfectly fitted for your comfort. They will then demonstrate the wheelchair, so that the you are confident with the controls and how to use it.

We understand that every person is an individual, and that some people may require longer to get used to their new powerchair- particularly if this is the first time they have used one, or they have advanced seating or programming requirements. Our staff are experienced with handovers, and will spend as long as necessary to ensure you are comfortable with the equipment.
