EW M48 Power Chair Review
E-Wheels has done it again with their engineering team and released the new EW-48 power wheelchair. This unit was released in April of 2020 and is one of the newest power wheelchairs to hit the market at this time of writing. E-Wheels combined both style and comfort in addition to practicality. They studied where they felt the market felt short and stepped up by adding features that most customers greatly enjoy. With a trusted name in the industry, E-Wheels is quickly becoming one of the top manufacturers by sales volume.
EW M48 Power Wheelchair Features
There are several key features that set the EW-M48 apart from their competitors. The first is value. E-Wheels typically come in at a lower price when compared to legacy brands which have been around 20+ years and fetch a premium due to their branding. So if getting a power wheelchair with fantastic specifications without overpaying is important, you should strongly consider the EW-M48.
One of the first standard features that appeal to most is the standard 20" captains seat. This is a deluxe seat that is adjustable. Some power wheelchairs have a fixed position that can prevent the comfort of the user. Each body type is typically slightly different so having an adjustable chair is very important to many users. Because many power wheelchair users spend a significant amount of time in the EW-M48 electric wheelchair, it is important that you do not get chair fatigue which is when your body gets sore from sitting. For added convenience, you can also flip-up the armrest in addition to swiveling seats.
Most problems with power wheelchairs are that some users do not feel stable. The EW-M48 has a unique design in the sense that a 10" front wheel is engineered to give stability to users which instill confidence when using this chair. This makes users more satisfied with their purchase when they feel confident with the operation of their product. This design also assists the user in driving on various different types of surfaces. It is one of our top-selling full-size power wheelchairs.
The weight capacity comes in at 300lbs which appeals to a majority of users. Top speed clocks in at a bit over 4 miles per hour at 4.2MPH which is about twice the speed of the average person walking. This is a fantastic top speed which shouldn't be too fast nor too slow. If you intend on using the EW M48 handicap wheelchair in the store, you'll enjoy the tight turning radius which clocks in at 24". The total travel range comes in at 14.2 miles which very far. Most power wheelchairs in this category typically top out at 10 miles. Looking for other specifications, view one of the largest selections of power wheelchairs!
