Karma Functional W/Chair Grey/Silver18" Vip515F14Wb

The VIP 515 (KM-1520.3T) is not just a lightweight folding wheelchair, it is a revolutionary designed tilt-in-space wheelchair (with a tilt range of 0 to 35 degrees). Carried by exclusive gas struts using an intelligent center-of-gravity weight shifting technology, it maintains stability while the chair is tilted.

Tilt-in-Space

The Tilt-in-space system allows the attendant to change the position of the user by tilting the chair, thus shifting the pressure away from one point and redistributing it over a larger surface area.

This feature helps reduce the risks of developing pressure ulcer and avoid back pain.

Foldable and Compact

Made of aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, the VIP 515 is not only lightweight, it folds compactly, offering greater convenience for both storing and traveling. No tools required for assembly or disassembly.

Adjustable Flip-back Armrest

Adjust the height of the armrest by moving it up or down until you find the ideal height. A proper armrest height is helpful to relieve loads on the neck, shoulders and arms and alleviate stress on the back. No tools required. The armrest also flip-backs for easier transport, on and off the wheelchair.

Hydraulic Pressure Support System

The VIP 515 tilt-in-space system is composed of two hydraulic gas struts that provide a smooth, controlled motion. They minimize shock and stablize the tilting speed. The attendant can lift the wheelchair user back to an upright position with greater efficiency.

Detachable Swing-away Footrest

Allows for easy transfer, on and off the wheelchair. Easy to detach. No tools required.

AEGIS Microbe Shield

The upholstery is treated with Aegis Microbe Shield, which is approved by the FDA, EPA, EU, etc.. The anti-microbial upholstery inhibits bacterial and fungal growth, eliminates odor and is designed for easy cleaning. It is a shield for your health.
