Description
Whitmyer Specialty Plush is the pad family that used to be custom. One version closes in from the sides. Another uses two mounts so the pad can take more force.
Which pad matches the head?
Adjust-a-Plush is for poor head control when at least one side has to help keep the head up. Two locking joints narrow or widen the whole pad.
Dual-mount is one pad with two mounting points, not two pads. The 12 in narrow pad prints as 13-1/4 in wide by 5 in high (33.7 x 12.7 cm).
What is chosen on the order?
The form codes Lycra or Dartex Reversed. Brackets are separate except on Cobra.
How does it compare?
A plain posterior pad is enough for some people. Those sit with the other positioning supports. The PowerPlus Relax multi-axis headrest is a different headrest.
On a growing chair, check pediatric wheelchairs before choosing the narrow range.
Funding may help: see who may help pay.
This line is not transit tested. Do not use the pad to push the chair, and do not let it press on the ear, eye, throat or jaw.
A free home assessment is the time to see whether the joints need to close on one side. The chair range is under wheelchairs.
Frequently asked questions
Can both sides be set differently?
The joints narrow or widen the whole pad. The maker describes support on at least one side, not a separate angle for each side.
Does the form sell a medium Adjust-a-Plush?
Yes. The April 2025 form also sells a medium Adjust-a-Plush and a dual-mount Adjust-a-Plush in three widths. The page does not name those.
Is fleece coded on the order form?
No. The April 2025 form codes Lycra or Dartex Reversed. Fleece is named on the page, so the part has to be confirmed.
