Description
The Regency 525R Reclining Wheelchair is a high-back bariatric recliner rated up to 850 lb in its headline configuration. It brings recline-based pressure management to the heaviest seated users.
- Reclining high back
- Up to 850 lb capacity by configuration
- 24 in seat width
- Desk arm build available
- Gendron bariatric construction
Some care plans need two extremes at once: maximum capacity and a reclining back. The Regency 525R is built for that intersection, with a high-back recliner rated to 850 lb in its headline configuration. The high back supports the head and trunk through recline cycles, which is where pressure management happens for fully dependent users. Both stocked configurations are 24 in wide, differing in back and arm specification. It is specialist equipment from Gendron, ordered by programs that know exactly why they need it.

Why Choose the Regency 525R Reclining Wheelchair?
When the care plan says recline and the scale says 850 lb, the option list is this chair and very little else. Gendron builds it because almost nobody else does.
- 850 lb reclining rating – Recline at a capacity almost no chair reaches – Dependent bariatric users get real pressure management
- High back support – Head and trunk stay supported through recline – Position changes do not cost posture
- Regency family fit – Shares the 525 line with the fixed-back model – Programs standardize on one family
