Finding The Mobility Scooter That Is Right For You
Dec 15th
Mobility scooters are used by many people who have difficulty walking. They can greatly increase your ability to independently and freely move around. With all the many types and models of mobility scooters available on the market today, it is a good idea to have an idea of what you need and expect from your mobility scooter before you buy it.
One of the most important considerations is where you intend to use your mobility scooter. Do you only need it indoors? Are you planning on using it outdoors over rough terrain? Most mobility scooters can be used both indoors and out, but some are better suited for the outdoors then others. A 4-wheel mobility scooter is typically better for outdoors. It is more stable than a 3-wheel scooter and it is also better suited to handle rough terrain. 3-wheel scooters are better for indoor use though, because they have a much smaller turning radius, which makes it easier to navigate tight corners.
Another consideration is whether you intend to take your mobility scooter away from the home. If you plan on traveling frequently then a travel scooter may be a good choice. Travel scooters have less features than a traditional mobility scooter, but they can quickly and easily be disassembled into several easy to manage pieces. They fit easily into the trunk of a car and can be placed on a plane easily. If you do not have a travel scooter, then you will likely need to buy some sort of vehicle scooter carrier. There are several types of scooter carriers. External scooter carriers attach to a vehicles hitch. Internal scooter carriers either use a winch system to lift it into the car or use a small platform that extends from the back of the car. A third option for scooter transport is a vehicle ramp, which allows you to drive the scooter straight into the vehicle.
The safety features of the mobility scooter should also be considered. If you intend to use it frequently outdoors, then it is a good idea to purchase a scooter that has an adequate set of lights. This includes blinkers, headlights, and running lights. There are two different types of scooter tires available as well. Solid foam filled tires are great because they never need to be filled with air and are puncture proof. They do not provide as good of a ride as air filled tires, which also can be adjusted to accommodate different terrains.
By thoroughly analyzing your needs before you begin shopping, you will be able to better select a mobility scooter.

Personal Mobility Scooter – 7 Questions To Think About Before Buying
Sep 27th
If you are in the market for a personal mobility scooter, you will want to be sure to get one that best fits your needs. You can figure out which one that is just by asking yourself a few questions.
1. Is your scooter going to be used primarily indoors or out? For an indoor scooter your better choice may be a 3 wheel scooter because these are so much easier to maneuver than a comparable 4 wheel scooter. A 3 wheel mobility scooter turns easily and can move around in tight spaces more easily than 4 wheeled scooters. Their smaller size also makes them more suitable for smaller indoor spaces.
For outdoor use, a better choice is a 4 wheel mobility scooter. That’s because the four wheels provide greater stability which comes in handy on uneven surfaces. You’ll feel a lot more secure with a four wheeler in these conditions.
2. Do you plan to use your scooter when you travel? In that case, a portable scooter might be a good option. Travel mobility scooters are lightweight, compact, and smaller than a regular scooter. They can usually be folded up for easy storage and ease of portability. Because you can fold them up, they can be placed in the trunk of a car or in the back of a minivan.
3. Do you plan to spend a lot of time in it most days? If so, then comfort is a definite priority. The seat should be well cushioned with a well supported back. Additionally, the seat should be large enough that it will be comfortable if you are sitting for an extended period of time. Seats that are too small are uncomfortable.
Most of the better scooters come with plush captain’s chairs. These seats swivel so it’s easier to get off and onto the scooter.
4. Do you need to bring along any medical equipment? If so, you might want to consider a heavy duty mobility scooter. These are designed to handle more weight without losing stability. Heavy duty scooters are also larger, so there is more room for equipment like portable oxygen tanks, or even small ramps. They are also available with larger seats, so can easily accommodate heavier individuals comfortably.
5. Where will your scooter be kept? Space may be limited if you live in a senior’s residence, an apartment, or even a small house. In this case a smaller folding mobility scooter may be the perfect solution. When in use, it doesn’t occupy much floor space, and when it’s not in use, it can easily be folded up and tucked away in a closet or a spare room.
6. Will your scooter be used for long periods of time many days? If that’s the case, you may want to get a scooter with a heavy duty battery that can go longer before needing to be recharged.
7. Do you plan to use it to go shopping or to run errands? If you do, you might want to look for a scooter that comes with extra storage compartment space. Some mobility scooters even have areas where you can lock up your personal belongings, like wallets or purses.

The Benefits Of 3 Wheel Mobility Scooters Over 4 Wheel Mobility Scooters
Jun 18th
When you start looking for a scooter, you’ll probably notice that there are more 4 wheel mobility scooters than there are 3 wheel mobility scooters available. Still, there are some pretty significant reasons to choose a 3 wheeled scooter. There are a lot of features that both types of scooter share. But the 3 wheel scooter tops the 4 wheeler in several areas.
There are three definite advantages to the wheeled scooter. Basically, a three wheeled scooter is more efficient than is a four wheeled scooter. It is also more convenient to use and it just plain looks nicer than a four wheeled mobility scooter.
Let’s take a closer look at each of these advantages.
The three wheeled mobility scooter uses advanced technology for more fluid turning. Although a four wheeled scooter is capable of easily making a wide sweeping turn, the same can not be said for sharp turns. In order to steer around a sharp turn, it’s necessary that you go back and forth repeatedly to gradually complete the turn. This can be frustrating after awhile.
The three wheel scooter is a shining star when it comes to making turns. Because of the single wheel at the front, you can easily make the sharpest of turns with no problem. Compare that to the hassle you would go through with a four wheel scooter. There is no doubt that this feature makes the 3 wheeled scooter more user friendly and lots of fun to scoot around in.
Granted, four wheel mobility scooters provide a lot more stability, but not everyone needs that extra stability. For some, a mobility scooter is a convenient way to go from one place to another.
The biggest reason for having a scooter in the first place is to allow for more freedom of movement by its user. The 3 wheel scooter does that. With its design and smaller size overall, it is easy to maneuver.
Just because you use a scooter doesn’t have to mean that you aren’t concerned with appearance. Why wouldn’t you want your vehicle to look sharp? And you’ll be happy with the look of your 3 wheeled mobility scooter, with its aerodynamic design and streamlined appearance.
When the time comes to choose a scooter, think carefully about the benefits that 3 wheel mobility scooters offer. Unless your travels take you places where you need a more stable scooter, you can probably opt for a three wheeled scooter and be quite satisfied with your choice.
For heavier individuals or those needing to bring medical equipment along, a heavy duty mobility scooter may be the ideal solution. Find out about the many features these mobility scooters have by visiting my website at http://www.personalmobilityscooter.org/.
