Quickie QM710 Power Wheelchair- Product Review

Scott Sweeney, representative from Sunrise Medical was in the office to provide an update on the Quickie QM710, Mid Drive Powered Wheelchair.  The QM710 has been marketed with Spider Track technology, where the chair has an aggressive suspension allowing it to traverse rougher terrain; including 4" curbs. Additionally the suspension dampens the ride reducing the seating displacement of the rider.  In the past year, we have seen several satisfied wheelchair users who have decided on this product to meet their needs.

New Improvements:
* New Lower Seat to Floor Height Available (16 1/2")
* Power Legrest Extension to allow standing on the footrest for transfers
* Black Wheel Option
* 12" Seat Elevator, scissor mount, and can drive at reduced speed when elevated

The QM710 is a good option for patients to consider when choosing a mid wheel drive system.
