I am in a power wheelchair with a ROHO air cushion on top of a steel plate for the seat. Anyone know whether this would work on the wheelchair? Thanks

I believe this mainly safeguards a person from electromagnetic frequencies that may be harmful. When we are traveling in a car there are a lot of harmful EMF's and magnetic radiation produced. Some are produced by the motor while running plus almost every aspect of a car creates an electric field that is harmful in many ways to our bodies. I'm sorry, but I don't know if a motorized (or power) wheelchair has these harmful frequencies. If you can, Check: safe space protection.com

I do not see why not. the pad is plugged to a cord that has a metal clip that needs to be attached to metal. Does the wheelchair have somewhere to attach a small alligator clip? best would be to contact manufacturer however or Dr. Sinatra.

This is how the wheelchair should be set up. Look at how the foam things are attached. http://www.bestfriendmobility.org/shop/images/img3-2.jpg

Yes, I can show you a cover that is a little easier to slide on that is listed here on Amazon. It's called the SafetySure CarEase Transfer Slide. It's 22" L x 18" W. It has two ratings right now. One is good and one isn't. However, we have this and it is a bit slippery and may be the help you need to slide yourself across the Roho. It can slide over the roho (like a pillow case) yet it's open on both ends. If you want more details on this, you can also find it at usmedicalstore.com. If you're going to ride with this cover on while you're riding in the car, you may want to put something underneath it to keep the "bottom" of the cushion from sliding out from under you. My father's doctor recommended that we "don't" use the cushion cover that came with the Roho as it is too thick and can cause pressure sores because of the stiffness and thickness of the Roho cover that comes with the Roho. Do you have anyone who can help you slide onto your cushion? I know these are a bit hard to slide on because of the depth of the cushion.

Don't know much about wheelchair models but if it's a chair you should be able to sit and pedal with the chair locked In place. It can also be used on a tabletop to strengthen arms and upper body.

I am not sure about the wheelchair. It probably will. It has enough room to hold my husband's electric cart. The wheelchair would probably fit. Take the measurements of the wheelchair and see if the carrier is wide enough for the wheelchair. You will probably need to tie the wheelchair to the carrier with tie downs for safety reasons, which is what we do with the electric cart, and the tie downs are easily removed when you want to unload the chair.

Yes it will definitely work with a wheelchair. Although like anything else , your clothes will shift every couple of hours . Just make adjustments acorddenly

Hi, my german shepherd Ayla had become paralyzed from waist down. The wheelchair works so that she used her front legs to move and bottom legs were lifted up by strap in back. She loved it and was able to run, unfortunately sometimes she tipped over and that she didn't like. But it helped her independence for a while. She is now deceased. I still have the wheelchair. spiritwindfarm@gmail.com

I don't think it's designed to be attached to either a recliner or toilet. It has a bracket which attaches to a pole on your wheelchair.

I don't have a wheelchair to compare it too. Although, I believe that it would if the wheelchair isn't really wide.......I love this computer desk for my laptop.

I purchased these for a basic DRIVE transport wheelchair that I got seconhand...they fit fine. Don't know how they'd be with other models. I would hope they are somewhat universal, at least within the brand.

Did not work for me. No way to secure this to the chair. Mine kept slipping off the chair in the wheelchair van I used to go to VA clinics and hospital. I no longer use it.

i would not use it in a wheelchair. move it the wrong why and the device may send you out of your wheelchair.

I think this is made for golf push carts of a specific brand. I don't know about wheelchairs.

I believe this unit only has 20" wide seats, which with 33 in hips would be to narrow. Don't remember but there a lot of places to buy wheelchairs< i've had 3 myself Invacare, Rosco was the x wide I had to start with. It was heavy duty and great weight capacity. Be sure you get one slightly bigger than you need, if your going to be in it alot you don't want to be piched to death and get a good pillow for the seat. I didn't want to spend big bucks on the ones made for the unit, so I got a couch pillow and use it. Remember also that the chair you get needs to fit through the doorways. If you get removable arms you can fudge a bit on seat size but by all means get it comfortable for you. I believe this unit only has 20" wide seats, which with 33 in hips would be to narrow.

Don't know how the wheel on a wheelchair is attached. The arm has a piece that you thread the center pin of the bike tire through. The hole is less than 1/4" in diameter, only big enough for the quick release pins on a bike tire. I think wheelchair ones are larger. I would try looking at the walkie dog one as well as it looks like it has a clamp arrangement instead. Not sure if that is sufficient help

I attached mine to my motorized wheelchair, and it works fine. Be sure to find the right place to attach the bracket.
