Power Chair vs Electric Wheelchair

With so many options on the market, deciding which mobility device is right for you can be a challenge. If you are considering buying a power wheelchair, mobility scooter or electric wheelchair, here are some things to keep in mind.

First, an electric scooter or wheelchair is often designed for indoor use only, while power chairs are for indoor and outdoor use.

While a manual wheelchair is certainly smaller and lighter than a powered chair, making them the simplest to maneuver into tight spaces or fold down into a vehicle, they often require better fine motor control and upper body strength than many users may possess.

Electric wheelchairs are sometimes smaller and lighter than power chairs but lack the durability of power chairs which can be driven outside, across lawns, dirt, sidewalks, and more. Finally, power chairs generally have more features and options than electric wheelchairs.

A powered wheelchair offers mobility assistance far and beyond electric scooters; with features such as mid-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive, power chairs will provide more freedom to those with mobility limitations.
