EasyGo Ultra – The Newest Addition to the EasyGo Family

EasyGo Ultra – The Newest Addition to the EasyGo Family

Loss of mobility impacts many individuals around the world. It can be caused by many different diseases and illnesses as well as injuries and birth defects. Many people rely on walkers to help them get around but sometimes, even walking with assistance can be a challenge. Scooters have become the go to mobility aid for many. Scooters, however, are not very portable, with some models weighing over 100 lbs. and unable to be disassembled or folded for traveling and storage.

This is where EasyGo power chairs come into play. EasyGo Mobility offers foldable portable power chairs that are lightweight enough to load into your trunk without a ramp or a lift. They arrive fully assembled within one week and use a lithium-ion battery that can drive up to 15 miles. The Standard and the Elite power chairs are highly praised by customers but there were many people who could not get an EasyGo power chair due to the limited weight capacity of the Standard and Elite. EasyGo needed a power chair that combined the same portability and folding capabilities in a more heavy-duty chair that can hold more weight.

 

New and Improved EasyGo Ultra

 

Introducing the New EasyGo Ultra model power chair! The EasyGo Ultra is the new and improved heavy duty power chair from EasyGo Mobility. The EasyGo Ultra offers the same folding capabilities and portability as its predecessors with more adjustability and a higher weight capacity. Join us as we dive into the details and get to know the new EasyGo Ultra power chair.

 

Weight and Capacity

 

Before getting to all the new and improved features of the Ultra, the first thing that should be mentioned is the weight of the chair and the updated weight capacity. The EasyGo Ultra offers a reinforced frame and holds a maximum weight of 330 lbs.

 

More Power

 

The Ultra also features a second battery slot allowing you to use 2 batteries instead of one. EasyGo Ultra weighs a total of 66 lbs. – 72 lbs. depending on whether you use one or two batteries. EasyGo Ultra comes with one battery.

The Most Adjustability

 

The EasyGo Ultra offers the most adjustability of any power chair available, starting with the backrest. The bracket located at the top of the backrest can be unscrewed allowing the height of the backrest to be adjusted.

 

The backrest also reclines slightly by unscrewing a bolt and adjusting to your comfort. When compared to its predecessors, you will notice the castor wheels along the top of the backrest have been removed on the Ultra. The castor wheels were used for trolley mode, which has been updated and will be talked about later. The top of the backrest has been redesigned and lined with a comfortable foam that makes it easier to grip for when the Ultra needs to be manually pushed.

 

Moving down to the armrests, you will notice the pads are larger. These pads can be adjusted horizontally from underneath allowing for more width between the armrests.

 

Identical to the Standard and Elite models, the armrests on the Ultra can be lifted out of the way so you can sit at the table or get in and out sideways. Simply push the round metal button on the inside of the armrest and pull the armrest up to adjust to your comfort.

 

In addition, the armrests are now length and height adjustable, meaning the full armrest construct can be moved up and down as well as back and forth according to the user’s preferences. This can be done by unscrewing the bolt, adjusting to your preference, and screwing it back in to secure your new positioning.

 

 

There is a spring bolt located underneath the armrests that also allows you to adjust the length of the armrests and moves them forward. Identical to the Standard and Elites models, the joystick is collapsible.

 

Larger and Adjustable Footplate

 

Making our way down to the last adjustable feature, the footplate. The footplate for the Ultra is larger and made of lightweight and sturdy aluminum. It has a grip pad and the loop doubles as a handle when folded and during trolley mode. The footplate is height adjustable. Simply unscrew the bolts and adjust to your comfort before screwing them back in securing your new positioning.

 

More Storage

 

The EasyGo Ultra features additional storage. It includes the same seat back pocket as the previous models, a storage basket that is installed under the seat and a small hidden zipper pocket located right under the seat, accessible from the front of the chair.

 

 

 

Upgraded Wheels and Added Suspension

 

The wheels on the EasyGo Ultra have also been updated. The rear wheels are still 12 inch flat free solid rubber but with a new look. The front wheels now have suspension and measure at 8” x 2”, which are larger than the front wheels used on the Standard and Elite power chairs.

 

 

The Anti-Tip wheels have been updated and can now be folded up or down easier than before. When the Ultra is folded, the anti-tipping wheels are used for trolley mode, allowing you to roll the chair behind you. The splash guards have been updated to be larger and the brake lever to unlock the brakes and engage neutral mode remains the same.

Folds and Unfolds in Seconds

 

Folding and unfolding a power chair has never been easier. The folding mechanisms have been updated to make folding and unfolding faster and easier. When you receive your EasyGo Ultra, it will come fully assembled and folded.

 

To unfold the EasyGo Ultra, stand the chair up on the anti-tip wheels and find the red lever located to the left of the seat when standing behind the chair. Lift the lever and allow the front of the chair to drop and fully open. Unfold the anti-tipping wheels and that’s it!

 

 

Folding the EasyGo Ultra power chair is just as easy and takes the same 2 steps. First, you fold up the anti-tip wheels. Second, find the metal lever located at the back of the chair at the base of the seat. Pull this lever and push the chair onto itself until it locks. The chair can now be stood up and rolled using trolley mode with the footplate serving as the handle.

 

Built In EasyLoad Vehicle Loading Wheels

 

The EasyLoad Vehicle Wheels are built into the EasyGo Ultra. They are located underneath the basket and are easily accessible once the chair is folded. Simply pull the spring bolt and pull the wheels into position. Once positioned in front of your vehicle, grip the base of the backrest to lift into your trunk. Use the same motion to collapse the EasyLoad wheels once you pull your chair out of the trunk.

Wide Contour Seating

 

The EasyGo Ultra has a wide 18” x 18” sling style seat equipped with a high density foam contour cushion for added comfort.

 

Final Words

We also offer a 30-day return policy allowing you to return the EasyGo for any reason within 30 days of receiving your chair. No one offers better support after a sale than EasyGo Mobility.

A Trip to Maine with EasyGo

A Trip to Maine with EasyGo

EasyGo power chairs have been making their way across America, from Florida to Alaska, helping many people get their mobile independence back. With its lightweight sleek design and folding capabilities, EasyGo power chairs have proven to be one of America’s best foldable power chairs.

One of our customers called us to let us know about how the EasyGo Elite made their most recent vacation to Maine one of the most memorable. They were so satisfied with how the Elite power chair helped them on their trip, they allowed us to share their story with everyone.

Ordering the EasyGo

 

Paula wanted to take her mother, Beth, with her on vacation to Maine. She was concerned that her mother’s age and mobility problems would make it difficult for them to make the most out of their trip. Paula called EasyGo Mobility and explained that she needed “an electric wheelchair that can be folded and placed in the trunk”. Paula had seen our ad on Facebook but had some questions. She asked about the size of the seat, whether it drives on grass, whether it can be used at the dinner table as well as questions about the battery range and how to fold and unfold.
Within a few minutes, Paula learned that the EasyGo Elite runs on a 24V lithium-ion battery that can be charged 2 ways and drives a range of up to 15 miles. The seat is 18 inches wide, and the Elite can be driven on grass and can also sit comfortably at a table due to the height adjustable armrests and collapsible joystick.

We spoke about how it folds and unfolds, and Paula referenced a few videos on our YouTube page as well as the How-To videos on our website. Paula made her decision and placed an order with us for an Elite power chair with EasyLoad Wheels, to help with loading into the trunk. She received her order in less than a week and was very happy to see that it really did come fully assembled!
When Beth saw her new EasyGo power chair, she was filled with joy knowing her mobility will not prevent them from enjoying their trip to the fullest! When it was time to go, Paula folded the chair, and used the EasyLoad wheels to easily load it into her trunk and then off to Maine they went!

Stop at the Park and Grocery Store

 

After safely arriving in Maine the next day, they decided to take a walk and explore. The EasyGo Elite proved to be as easy to use and reliable as it drove down the sidewalk with ease, even over some small cracks in the pavement. The 12-inch rear wheels provided a smooth ride and navigated through the grass with ease. They took a short walk through a local park where Beth was able to drive the EasyGo over a sloped wooden bridge with ease and comfort.

After the park, they stopped at a local supermarket for some drinks and snacks. Beth enjoyed how easily the EasyGo Elite was able to turn corners into different aisles. It was about time to head back to the hotel and call it a day, but Beth enjoyed her EasyGo so much, she wanted to drive around a little more before ending her day.

So, they decided to take a stroll down a few roads to explore the area. The lithium-ion battery lasted them the full day and was only halfway drained by the end of their day. They planned on plugging in the chair and having it charge over night. When they got back to their hotel, they did not want to bring the chair out again just to charge. Paula removed the battery from the EasyGo and took it into the room with her to charge and left the power chair in the car. This is something very common among EasyGo customers. EasyGo offers 2 options for charging. You can plug the charger into the port directly under the joystick, or you can remove the battery and plug the charger into the port in the back of the battery. Since the battery is conveniently located and easily removable, many people who mainly use their chairs for outdoor use bring in just their battery to charge instead of the full chair.

Breakfast at Denny’s

 

The next morning, Beth and Paula went to a local Denny’s to enjoy some breakfast before their trip to a national park. Beth had no problem driving into the restaurant and getting to the table. Once at the table,  Beth utilized the collapsing feature of the joystick to collapse it so she can sit closer without any interference from the joystick. With the collapsible joystick and adjustable armrests, EasyGo Elite is great for sitting at tables. After filling up on breakfast, they made their way back to the car, where Paula easily folded the EasyGo and loaded it into the trunk using the EasyLoad wheels. From there, they took off to Acadia National Park.

 

Acadia National Park

 

While Acadia National Park proved to be not very senior friendly, they were still able to drive through and explore as much of the park as possible. Beth found a great spot where she sat to enjoy the view of a beautiful fountain before driving the EasyGo down the road to enjoy the scenery.

They visited a few local gift shops and a local seafood restaurant for dinner before they wrapped up their day and got ready to head back home the next day. Once again, they did not need to bring the full chair in to be charged; they simply removed the battery.

EasyGo – Living up to the name

 

Beth and Paula found the chair to be very convenient and Paula was very happy that she decided to buy an EasyGo. Paula felt the folding and unfolding was very easy and took only a few seconds. She also felt loading into the car using the EasyLoad Wheels was simple and convenient and loved how easy it was to remove the battery to charge. She said the EasyLoad wheels made the chair feel lighter than 56lbs. Beth loved riding the EasyGo and looks forward to using it as much as possible in her local area. Beth enjoyed how easily the EasyGo handled and felt comfortable and safe. She loved how smooth it drove and found the collapsible joystick to be very useful when sitting at tables. Overall, both Beth and Paula love the EasyGo Elite and Beth is more than happy with her restored mobile independence.
