More Details
This chair has plastic strapping upholstery which provides pressure reduction. Features a static base with a seat designed to glide in a forward and backward motion. A high back rest and removable neck rest cushion are also included.
The chair's gliding action is designed to produce a calming effect on individuals who are agitated, disoriented or who like the sensation of movement.
The auto locking mechanism prevents the gliding system from moving when the user is getting in or out of the chair. The glide mechanism can also be locked by an attendant if required.
The padding is available in a range of different colours, including Blue, Burgundy and green, and the density of padding in the seat and backrest can be customised.

BRAKE
The standard brake is operated by a carer or assistant. An optional brake can be applied and released by the user.

FRAME
Tubular steel featuring a solid base with four legs and two rear castors for moving the chair. The seat moves in a forward and backward motion. A catch is located at the rear of the chair to stop the chair moving when the person gets up from the chair.

SEAT AND BACKREST
PVC strapping upholstery conforms to the user's shape and reduces heat and moisture build up. The neck rest cushion is attached to the chair via hook and loop tape.

Two pockets with flaps secured by hook and loop tape are attached to the sides of the chair.
