The Many Variations Of Motorized Wheelchairs

According to the Motorized Wheelchair Lemon Law, a motorized wheelchair is defined as “any motor-driven wheelchair”. At times it may even be regarded as power wheelchairs. The Lemon Law was created to protect buyers or leasers against the purchase of faulty wheelchairs that do not conform to warranty standards. Manufacturers are responsible to repair motorized wheelchairs that are found with defects covered by the warranty and which are reported within the warranty period.

Amongst the motorized wheel chairs produced in the market are the Rascal Power Chairs range and the Pride Jet 2 Motorized Wheelchair. Within the Rascal Power Chair range are four Rascal motor wheelchair models, each designed with alternate strength factors. The 301 model offers a seat lift option, while the 320 model boasts of being lightweight and highly maneuverable.

Another brand of motor powered wheelchair is the Pride Jet 2, which incorporates wheels made with the TMmid-wheel drive technology and anti-tippers. Apart from that, this motorized wheelc hair comes with a 5 year warranty on the frame. There are various other models that Pride Jet has developed – the Pride Jet 3, the Pride Jazzy 1221, the Pride Jet 1122, the Pride Jet 1170 and the Pride Jet 1103.

Other than being priced differently, these motorized wheelchairs offer features that differ from one another. The Pride Jet 3 model offers sleek styling, a turning radius of 17 inches and uses Sealed Gel Batteries. Going higher up the price range is the Pride Jazzy 1221 mid-wheel drive technology and a turning radius of 19.5 inches. The Active-Trac suspension is the core strength of the Pride Jazzy 1122 together with better handling and control. The Pride Jazzy 1103 is equipped with a swivel seat for even more usage convenience.

All in all, with the warranty guidelines for motorized wheelchairs, a higher quality standard is expected by consumers. This translates to better products offered to consumers with lower defect rates and better usage experience.
