A manual wheelchair is a blessing for people who can no longer walk great distances, but without it, a person cannot enjoy the simple things in life that others take for granted, like a vacation to see the children/ grand children. Most people do not travel with their wheelchair for fear of having it damaged by the airlines. If they are planning to travel, whoever they may be going to see have to find a wheelchair rental company, rent a wheelchair at as much as $35.00 dollars per day, then return it after their loved one returns home. A ten day rental can cost $350.00 dollars or more. This does not include the deposit, or inconvenience of driving to the rental store. The rental wheelchairs are not well taken care of, nor are they sanitary. Do you really want your loved one confined to that type of wheelchair for the next 10 days? With the Wheelchair Caddy you can take your wheelchair, the leg risers, and seat cushion with you, saving you and your loved one the expense and inconvenience of having to rent one for your stay. Most importantly the person gets to have his or her wheelchair and seat cushion instead of a worn out and unsanitary device.
