    Love your videos! I use a transfer board and want a transport wheel chair with arm rests that move out of the way. Love to see a review of some of those!

    • @EquipMeOT
      @EquipMeOT  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes! Those are so nice and fall into the next price bracket. I’ll see what I can do!

    I think these are made by the same company, because I have the Carex chair--literally identical--but it is branded as Medline. I'm not mistaken, because it still has the Medline label sewed in place.
    Also, you paid waaaaaay to much for both. The Carex one can be had new for $100-$110. The Medline for no more than $130, often less than that.

    which chair has the ability to support a full extended elevated leg in immobilizer brace? any other chair recommendations links for this purpose please? or how to adjust foot petals for this purpose?

    • @EquipMeOT

      You should get a standard wheelchair, probably a Drive chair with a leg extender foot rest. This should be available through a local equipment service (not sure where you’re located). This is something you can rent during your recovery and depending on your insurance, may be partially covered. This is the setup you’ll want:

    Can the foot rest be adjusted high and low?

    • @EquipMeOT
      @EquipMeOT  ปีที่แล้ว

      No. These have a stable foot rest.

    The Medline armrests are for shit! They're soft (nice) but don't hold up well to a person who is constantly using them to push up on to get out of the chair. The Carex armrests are hard, but hold up much better, and can fit under tables but either one will do the job. Medline does make a model MDS 808200KD that has the hard and tapered arm rests. It also had swing back footrests that are held in place by plastic holders. However, those holders are outsourced by Medline. Unfortunately, mine broke because of inferior quality material. The footrest made of steel swings back into a brittle plastic holder. Guess who wins?
