Lifestyle & Mobility’s Tips and Tricks for Buying a Powerchair
20 October 2023 - by Matt Stanfield

Welcome to this powerchair buyer’s guide, brought to you by Lifestyle & Mobility! Let us help you find the ideal powerchair companion to elevate your mobility and independence. We understand that this decision is crucial, so we’ve gathered together some insider advice.

1. Understand Your Unique Needs

First and foremost, there’s some questions we’d advise you to ask yourself. Consider your lifestyle, daily activities, intended terrain, and any other needs you may have. For instance, if you enjoy spending time outdoors, look for a model with durable tyre options.

2. Get Face-to-Face Expert Guidance

Lifestyle & Mobility are proud to have expert powerchair assessors on hand to guide you through the decision-making process. You may want to visit one of our showrooms or, distance permitting, we can offer a free, no-obligation, in home assessment/demonstration for powerchairs. Test-driving different powerchair models will give you first hand experience of their manoeuvrability, responsiveness, and overall fit. Take your time, ask questions, and allow us to assist you in making an informed choice. Our experts will be happy and willing to answer any questions you may have and provide recommendations based on your feedback and preferences.

3. Comfort and Customisation

Lifestyle & Mobility believe that your powerchair should be as personal to you as possible. This often means customisation. Whether you have an assessment with us, or just drop into one of our stores, our expert staff will help you with some of the less familiar aspects of your powerchair build.

4. Remember the Community

Don’t forget the incredible power of connecting with others who have first hand experience with powerchairs. User knowledge is invaluable, so try to soak it up. Sharing your own experiences can also contribute to a vibrant and supportive community.

The Last Word

At Lifestyle & Mobility, we are dedicated to providing exceptional customer service and assisting you every step of the way. Our work with you is grounded in an important understanding. Your powerchair is more than just a device: it’s freedom, independence, and empowerment.
