Carony^®

This is where the user sits, safely and comfortably. It is the moving part of the Carony that slides with the user between wheel base and swivel base. The seat has many different features for good posture and pressure relief. For example, raising the front of the seat cushion and reclining backrest. It also has integrated carer handles with brakes.

Take a look at the Features section for a closer look at these and other features of the Carony seat.

This is the wheel base. Together with the seat it forms the Carony wheelchair. This is where you find details such as foot rests, the crank for height adjustment and the parking brake. To make it easy to move around and safe to park, it has premium 16" wheels with disc brakes. The height adjustment crank helps to match the height of the car when docking, but it can also be useful for various situations in and around the home.

To enable the wheel base to dock and to hold the Carony seat, the swivel base takes the place of the original car seat. As the name suggest it can rotate towards the door opening so that the wheel base can dock on. Depending on the height and size of your car the Swivel base can look and function differently. In a higher car it could rotate out and lower down before docking the seat. And then lift both seat and user into the vehicle.

Regardless of how they look and work, all our compatible Swivel bases are crash tested and approved in combination with the Carony seat. We do these tests according to the same standards as car manufacturers.

The Carony now features integrated push handles with brakes. When used as a car seat the handles fold into the back of the seat. It provides more space and clear impact surface for anyone seated behind the Carony seat. To achieve the greatest brake force with minimal input both rear wheels have disc brakes. If you need to let go of the handles but want to keep the brakes engaged you can flick a switch to temporarily hold the brakes. For longer stops and after docking, use the parking brake on the side of the Carony.

Almost everything on the Carony is adjustable. From top to bottom you can adjust the height of the headrest, the thickness of the lumbar support, the height and angle of each individual armrest, the depth of the seat, the recline of the backrest, height of the front of the seat, the seating height of the Carony, the length of the foot rest as well as the angle and direction of the foot rests. Furthermore, we have the optional elevating leg support.

Our foot operated anti-tip device is both activated and deactivated using the feet. Our intention is to make it as easy as possible for you to use and to adapt the wheelchair to any situation. Be it going down a couple of steps or traversing a higher obstacle.

Even if the Carony seat itself is adjustable in many ways, some children need even more support. Our child accessories will help provide various level of support as well as extra safety for smaller bodies.

Both front and rear inner tubes are available in a puncture free version. This means all your tyres can keep their premium look even if your local roads are a bit sharp around the edges.

4-point shoulder harness
Distributing pressure across a 25% greater surface area than a traditional H-style harness, our shoulder harness has a body-contouring shape for optimal support and a comfortable fit. Curved pads follow the contours of the shoulders and ribcage, with a low-placed sternum strap for easy adjustability.

Torso and Thigh Support
Choose either one or both to provide extra support to achieve that all-important good seating posture. It also creates a more enclosing seat which some users prefer.
