The alternative to taking existing mobility equipment is taking the Invacare ATM Take Along Chair

Feb. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Top Mobility is proud to announce the addition of the Invacare ATM Take Along Chair to their existing fleet of mobility equipment. The chair weighs a total of 75 pounds including the battery, and can be easily disassembled and placed in any vehicle.  This chair is designed to be used as an alternative to the user's existing mobility equipment.  When users are going on vacation for shorter periods of time it is not always necessary to carry their full-size scooter or wheelchair with them.  The chair's base weight is  only 34 pounds which makes it easier to reassemble. Reassembly takes approximately 60 seconds  because it comes apart into two easy pieces: the base and the seat.  The battery is then added into the battery compartment.  With other scooters it becomes complicated to put together because of the weight and the shape of the particular pieces.  The chair folds in like a lawn chair.

The Invacare ATM Take Along Chair also provides comfort in regards to the seating.  The seats are made from breathable fabric, which makes it easier for users to sit comfortably for hours.  Seating does have to have abundant amounts of padding to maintain its comfort.  Comfortable seating goes a long way for mobility users.

This scooter can be used both electronically or manually.  For manual users, simply lift the drive disengagement lever.  Users can then either be pushed or simply sit back and relax without fear that the chair will roll away.  For electronic use, users can use the Gearless Traction Control Drive which ensures that users will have a safe ride no matter where they go or how far they go. It is easy to navigate the scooter with the device and it provides a smooth ride.  Other scooters have a jerking motion that becomes uncomfortable after several uses.   The battery life on the Take Along Chair is also something to behold. The battery is a 17 amp battery giving users up to 12 miles of use.  Not many scooters have batteries that can take them 12 miles.  The average is 10 miles.

Invacare's chair does not require the use of a scooter lift whether it's an interior or exterior lift.  These lifts are helpful if users have a heavy-duty mobility device that does not break down into several pieces, but the benefits of the Invacare ATM Take Along Chair certainly helps users make travel plans much easier because it is so light and takes up so little room.

The Invacare ATM Chair has smaller tires but they are flat-free tires that can go to through any environment such as sand or gravel without any issues.  The Invacare ATM Take Along Chair gives user's existing scooter or wheelchair a much-needed rest.  These chairs are long lasting and designed to last in any environment for several uses. Users can enjoy their vacation or get-togethers with the comfort of knowing they have a chair that they can rely on that will give them the same benefits as their existing scooter.
