Specialist wheelchair supplier RHealthcare has launched its latest wheelchair, the Dash 200 HD Plus, which is now available to purchase.
The new wheelchair boasts a 26-inch-wide seat and user weight of 225kg. It is engineered with a larger frame and reinforced components to meet the needs of users who require additional space and support without compromising comfort or manoeuvrability.
The Dash 200 HD Plus will allow wheelchair services to better support individuals, their careers and families to achieve improved quality of life and independence through provision of the right wheelchair, RHealthcare states.

“Our latest heavy-duty wheelchair reflects our ongoing commitment to inclusivity, safety and performance,” said Matthew Nelson, Product Manager at RHealthcare.
“We recognised a need for a chair that better serves users who require greater stability and support, with comfort. The Dash 200 HD Plus achieves this.”
The Dash 200 HD Plus is crash test-approved, enabling wheelchair users to be safely transported without removing them from the chair, providing peace of mind for care practitioners and users alike.
This safety feature, combined with quick-to-engage hub brakes and quick-release wheels for transportation and storage, makes the Dash 200 HD Plus a safe and practical heavy-duty wheelchair.
This new model is an upgrade of the Dash 200 HD wheelchair which launched last year. The seat is two inches wider than the largest Dash 200 HD model, and the user weight is boosted by 25kg.
