Description
The Regency Bariatric Wheelchair range covers the fixed-back Regency XL 2000 in widths from 24 in to 34 in, plus the fixed-back Regency 525. These are the high-capacity chairs for users who sit upright and need structure, not recline.
- Fixed-back bariatric frames
- XL 2000 class ratings of 700-750 lb
- Widths of 24 in to 34 in
- Regency 525 fixed-back build included
- Gendron bariatric construction
The fixed-back Regency chairs serve the largest users who do not need recline. The XL 2000 builds run 24 to 34 in wide with class ratings in the 700 to 750 lb range, the top of the manual wheelchair capacity scale. The Regency 525 adds a lighter fixed-back alternative in 24 in with swingaway footrests. All are Gendron-built for the Everest & Jennings family, with the reinforced structure that these ratings demand. For bariatric programs, these are the everyday chairs behind the recliners.
