Description
The Drive Sentra EC STD28ECDDA is a 28 in (71 cm) extra-wide bariatric wheelchair with detachable desk arms, rated to 700 lb (318 kg).
What does it do, and how does it work?
- Seat 28 in (71 cm) wide by 20 in (51 cm) deep, with a 700 lb (318 kg) capacity.
- Carbon steel frame with a triple-coated chrome finish and gussets; reinforced nylon upholstery.
- Steel spoke rear wheels and 8 in (20 cm) flat-free casters in two positions.
- Push-to-lock wheel locks on both rear wheels, and detachable desk-length arms with extra-large pads.
- 64 lb (29 kg); 37 in (94 cm) wide open and 14.5 in (37 cm) wide folded.
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- A rider up to 700 lb (318 kg) who self-propels from the large rear wheels.
- Full-length arms: item STD28ECDFA. Companion-pushed travel: a bariatric transport chair.
- More heavy chairs: bariatric wheelchairs.
Will it fit?
- Seat 28 in wide by 20 in deep; the chair is 37 in (94 cm) wide open, so the doorway must be wider than that.
- Seat to floor 19.5 in (50 cm); back height 18 in (46 cm).
- 43 in (109 cm) long with riggings and 35 in (89 cm) high; folded 43 x 14.5 x 35 in (109 x 37 x 89 cm).
- Measure hip width, hip to knee and knee to heel in shoes, or book a free home assessment.
Using it day to day
- Press the release to lift each arm off for a sideways transfer.
- Push both wheel locks into place before a transfer or a forward lean.
- The frame folds side to side; the folded width of 14.5 in is for storage, not for rolling through a doorway while seated.
- Footrests are bought separately: choose Drive's PH-SF swing-away footrests or PHELR elevating legrests.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
- 700 lb (318 kg) applies to this 28 in chair; do not use another width's limit.
- The chair is not a seat in a motor vehicle.
- No footrests and no cushion are included; add a 28 x 20 in cushion.
- This item has desk-length arms only; full-length arms are a different item.
Which version should I choose?
- Desk arms (this item) or full arms (STD28ECDFA).
- PH-SF swing-away footrests or PHELR elevating legrests, ordered separately.
How does it compare?
- The 26 in Sentra EC is 34.5 in wide and weighs 62 lb (28.1 kg).
- The 30 in Sentra EC is 39 in wide and weighs 66 lb (29.9 kg).
