All-Terrain Seated Knee Scooter - Tuffcare R280F

All-Terrain Seated Knee Scooter - Tuffcare R280F

The Tuffcare® Model R280F is an all-terrain Seated scooter with a wide-nose seat designed for individuals recovering from hip, knee, foot or lower leg injury. Unlike traditional all-terrain knee walkers, the Tuffcare® R280F offers a soft foam calf pad that can be attached to either side in order to "cradle" and elevate the injured leg. It also has a comfortable wide-nose, padded gel seat which allows users to propel the scooter using their "good leg." Best of all --- this Seated Scooter-Walker is equipped with Large (10"x1½”) Treaded Tires for outdoor use on grass, gravel and hard-packed sand surfaces. 

The seated scooter keeps the injured leg safely and comfortably cradled and elevated. This speeds up recovery by keeping the injured area from bearing any weight without sacrificing mobility. The All-Terrain Seated Scooter is a perfect alternative to those who cannot use a traditional knee scooter.

==================================================

CAUTIONARY NOTE:

Seated scooters are NOT for EVERYONE. Particularly, elderly users may find it difficult to operate a Seated Scooter due to insufficient leg/core strength, agility, or balance.

Returns are costly; we request customers to review these questions before ordering our Seated Scooters:

• Does my Doctor or Therapist approve of my using a Seated Scooter?
• Am I able to lift my injured leg over the Seated Scooter's crossbar (in order to mount/dismount the Seated Scooter)?
• Do I have sufficient strength in the hamstring muscles (back of the thigh) of my "good" leg so that I can both push and pull the Seated Scooter?
• Do I have sufficient core strength to keep my balance when seated while pulling/pushing with one leg?
• Am I able to raise and hold my outstretched arms in front (while gripping and turning handlebars) for extended periods of time?

If you are unsure of a Seated Scooter's suitability, please call to discuss your questions (931-241-6262). Depending on your projected recovery time, you may wish to consider Renting a Scooter. If you suspect that a Seated Scooter will NOT work for you, a Transport Chair is an excellent alternative.
