Description
Broda Latitude Pedal Wheelchair is a foot-propelled pedal wheelchair with a gentle rocking mechanism, made for users who move better, and settle better, when the chair lets them move. It tilts to 18 degrees for pressure shifts, and the rocking motion reaches 33 degrees under the user's own rhythm.
- Rocking mechanism with motion up to 33° for self-soothing movement
- Foot-propelled low seat keeps users independently mobile
- Tilt up to 18° for pressure relief and postural support
- Adjustable seat surface height for proper foot reach
- Independent height-adjustable arm supports
Latitude Pedal Wheelchair with rocking and Tilt
The Latitude suits residents who are restless in a fixed chair: the rocking mechanism answers the urge to move, while the pedal layout lets them travel under their own power. Its 18 degrees of tilt is enough for scheduled pressure shifts and a more restful posture after meals or activities. Independent, height-adjustable arm supports let each side be set for the user's arms and tray use, even when the two sides need different heights. The seat surface height adjusts so feet plant flat for effective propulsion, and the seat-mount leg support keeps feet from drifting off position. With a 250 lb capacity and widths of 16, 18 and 20 in stocked, it covers the core long-term-care population that benefits from motion-friendly seating.

Why Choose the Broda Latitude Pedal Wheelchair?
Not every user who needs motion needs the full Encore Rocker; the Latitude brings rocking to a lighter, simpler pedal chair. It is a strong fit for care homes introducing motion seating without stepping up to the flagship rocking model.
- Motion that settles – the rocking range gives restless users a rhythm — agitation often drops when the chair stops fighting the movement
- Independent by foot – propulsion keeps legs working and residents mobile — independence that shows up in mood and strength
- Arms set per side – independent arm adjustment handles asymmetric needs — one platform fits more residents correctly
- Honest value in the line – rocking plus tilt below the Encore Rocker's price — motion-friendly seating for more rooms in a facility

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the rocking mechanism do on the Latitude?
It allows a gentle rocking motion to 33 degrees while the chair itself provides up to 18 degrees of tilt. Users who find rhythm soothing can rock within a controlled range, which suits long-term care and sensory seating plans.
Who is the Latitude sized for?
It carries users up to 250 lb in seat widths of 16, 18 and 20 in as stocked here, with 22 in in the wider range. Depths run from 15.5 to 20 in, and the seat surface height adjusts for foot reach.
How is it different from the Sashay?
Both are foot-propelled pedal chairs, but the Latitude adds the rocking mechanism and independent height-adjustable arm supports, at a 250 lb capacity. The Sashay skips rocking, costs less and raises capacity to 350 lb.
Can the user still foot-propel it?
Yes. The low seat and front-wheel layout let the user push along with their feet, and the seat-mount lower leg support keeps feet positioned between moves. Caregivers steer and brake from behind.
What warranty does Broda give?
A 10-year warranty on the frame and a 2-year warranty on all parts, per Broda's manufacturer warranty. Coverage applies to the configurations stocked on this page.
