Heavy Duty Power Wheelchairs

Pride Jazzy 600 and 600XL Indoor/Outdoor Power Wheelchair

As the name suggests, heavy-duty electric wheelchairs are designed for higher weight capacity users, from 300 lbs. to 650 lbs., based on model. Heavy-duty electric wheelchairs are available in a range of styles, including folding and center-wheel drive.

A heavy-duty power wheelchair may be best for you if you need:

• A weight capacity 300 lbs. or greater
• Battery range of 11- to 16-miles
