Jazzy® Passport Electric Wheelchair

One of the most comfortable wheelchairs for elderly seniors is also extremely portable! The Jazzy® Passport is a lightweight, compact electric wheelchair is easy to fold for traveling or storing at home. It provides plenty of room for the user’s legs and includes a foot platform that is wide enough for the user’s feet so they feel comfortable.

This power wheelchair also comes with a mesh storage bag underneath the seat, a cupholder, and a safety belt.

Jazzy Select® 6 2.0 Power Wheelchair

The Jazzy Select Electric Wheelchair is unlike any wheelchair you’ve seen! It is trim, sporty, and offers superior performance. The rider can use the Jazzy Select indoors or outdoors and expect the same smooth and stable ride. This model comes with a high-back seat for added comfort. The seat also folds flat, perfect for storage. Additionally, the high-back seat comes with replaceable back and seat covers.

The foot platform on this wheelchair is adjustable by height to ensure foot stability and comfort. Its tires do not leave marks behind whether used inside on the kitchen floor or at the grocery store. The wheelchair helps to keep itself clean with a shroud that repels dirt and dust. As a power wheelchair with joystick operation, the Jazzy Select comes with a safety belt that expands to 60 inches.

In-line motor technology and front-wheel drive are not usually terms people think of to describe a wheelchair. However, the Jazzy® Sport Motorized Wheelchair is in a class of its own. Its sleek shape makes it extremely maneuverable whether the user has it inside or outside. The simple frame allows for easy servicing, especially with an access door on the back of the wheelchair that makes changing the batteries a snap.
