Full Description

The Tuffy Deluxe 867 is a wheelchair crafted to provide comfort and durability for all users. With its folding triple chrome plated frame, large 24″ x 1″ molded rear wheels with hard rubber tires, and 8″ x 1″ hard rubber caster wheels the 867 is ready to easily take you across most terrain. The Tuffy allows users to relax and enjoy long term use with its double embossed vinyl upholstery, fixed padded armrests, and padded calf pads. The Tuffy series are the go to wheelchairs for both rental and sale with features such as:

  • Swing away detachable footrests for simple, secure loading, unloading, and storage.
  • Adjustable toggle wheel locks ensure safe transfer by keeping rear wheels firmly in place.
  • Adjustable length footplates adapt to meet your specific needs for a more comfortable experience.
  • Stainless steel side panels and aluminum footplates add the final touches to a durable, reliable product.
  • 16″ & 18″ Wide models have a weight capacity of 210 pounds, 20″ has a capacity of 310 pounds.

Cognitive Abilities

For safe independent use, users must understand cause + effect (action = result). Independent use requires directional understanding (i.e. moving the wheels in one direction results in matching chair movement), problem solving (i.e. combine + time movements to get from A to B), and judgment (ability to learn that if something is unsafe they should not do it).

Functional Abilities

Users must have sufficient vision, trunk control and enough upper extremity grip, strength and stamina to steer and/or propel the chair. For foot propulsion, users must also have functional use of at least one lower extremity. Their adjustable foot and armrests and seat position make them appropriate for users requiring minimal positioning. This chair may not be appropriate for those with visual deficits, uncontrolled seizures, bilateral upper extremity weakness and those with poor trunk control.

Environment

Standard wheelchairs can be used both indoors and outdoors. They perform best on firm, flat surfaces such as pavement, groomed footpaths, cycle paths and in and around home. While it can be used outdoors, they not intended to be used on rough terrain, slopes, loose gravel, or sand. Their relatively small turn radius makes them appropriate for indoor use where space is limited.

Activities

Their maneuverability and small turn radius make standard wheelchairs ideal for use in tight spaces (stores, elevators, public washrooms, public transit etc.). While they can be used outdoors, they are best for activities done on flat level surfaces like urban sightseeing or sidewalk commuting.
Warnings

Please speak with your healthcare provider and schedule an in-person consultation before purchasing this product, to evaluate whether it is truly the best option for you.
