Lift and Tilt
With 30cm (12inch) of elevation and 45 degrees of tilt, the power lift function on our electric wheelchairs can open up new worlds and possibilities for you.
BENEFITS OF LIFT AND TILT FUNCTION
- Independence: By having the lift, you may be able to live more independently by having greater accessibility to the things you need and love to do.
- Reach: It is simply easier to reach items when you are in an elevated position. The 30cm of lift is easily noticeable, making reaching things like light switches and checkout counters that much easier.
- Increased views: Sitting at a concert or sports game doesn’t always give you the best experience, especially if everybody around you is standing and you can’t see through the crowd. An elevation of 30cm gives you just what you need to be at standing height, making these standing experiences much more enjoyable.
- Social interaction: The 30cm lift makes social interaction much easier and more enjoyable.
- For children: Being at eye level to their fellow classmates and friends through the use of the power lift function can help reduce the negative stigma that may affect young wheelchair users. This can result in more enriching positive experiences for your child.
- Tilt in space allows wheelchair users to tilt back to reposition themselves in their seat, which may assist with pressure care and overall support, which could allow the user to spend longer periods of time in their chair. Tilt also allows the user to increase footplate clearance across obstacles or inclines, so that the chair does not become snagged at the footplate.
It can be quite frustrating for a wheelchair user to sit in a crowded room where everybody else is standing. This is because those standing often appear taller than the wheelchair user, even if they are shorter in actual height. The optional power lift function available as an option all Magic Mobility power chairs helps to alleviate this problem.
UX UNDERSEAT BY MAGIC MOBILITY
Now standard on all Magic Mobility powerchairs, our new UX underseat system is a smarter, sleeker, and more user-friendly seating solution. Designed to enhance freedom, comfort, and confidence, it features simplified width and depth adjustability that allows your local dealer or your therapist to make precise changes to your underseat in minutes, rather than hours.
With clear laser-etched sizing markers to eliminate guesswork, this new addition allows for accurate, repeatable adjustments so that the chair can easily adapt as your needs change over time. The result is a more personalised seating experience that supports comfort, posture, and long-term flexibility.
Beyond adjustability, the UX underseat offers enhanced versatility through a redesigned side rail slot system, enabling quicker and more precise positioning of accessories, back canes, and supports. This allows each chair to be tailored to individual lifestyle and clinical requirements with greater ease. Finished with smooth, rounded edges and a refined modern aesthetic, the UX underseat not only improves usability and ease of cleaning but also delivers a contemporary look that complements Magic Mobility’s renowned durability and performance.
