Provide the Gift of All-Day Comfort and Dignity
"I can't speak highly enough not only about this wheelchair, it's light, comfortable, and reclines to your needs but Medical Supply Pros made sure I received the wheelchair in 2 days..."
The solution for long hours of sitting, designed for users and their caregivers.
For a loved one who spends extended periods in a wheelchair, standard models can cause discomfort and poor posture. As the definitive solution in our complete Wheelchairs Collection, the Medline Guardian Reclining Wheelchair is engineered for long-term comfort and health. The high back and padded headrest provide crucial support, while the full 180-degree recline allows for repositioning to relieve pressure and enhance comfort throughout the day.
Fit & Sizing Advisory
As one customer, Miguel, noted, the push handles may feel low for caregivers over 6'2". However, the chair itself is designed for ultimate user comfort. Please review the specifications below to ensure a perfect fit for the user.
Key Features & Benefits
- Full 180° Recline: A high-back design with a full recline allows for infinite adjustments, reducing pressure and increasing comfort for long-term sitting.
- Elevating Leg Rests: Included standard with every chair, these are essential for improving circulation and providing customized support.
