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
EasyGo Mobility offers a 3-year warranty on the frame and a 1-year warranty on all electronic and drivetrain components such as the motors, the battery and the joystick. 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.
The EasyGo Ultra combines comfort and power with foldable convenience into a heavy-duty portable power chair, perfect for anyone who wants to take back their mobile independence. With new and improved folding among other stand out features, more adjustability, a higher weight capacity and backed by a full warranty and return policy, we are happy to add EasyGo Ultra to the family of EasyGo power chairs. We hope you enjoyed learning about the new EasyGo Ultra. If you or a loved one is in need of a heavy duty yet foldable and portable power chair, please give EasyGo Mobility a call at 1-833-709-3499. Thank you for choosing EasyGo Mobility.
Upkeep of your electric wheelchair or power chair is very important. And, it’s a key to keeping it in good condition. We all know that maintenance such as tightening the screws and bolts if they start to loosen up as well as applying grease/oil to any moving parts that may need to stay lubricated is essential.
But, a big part of upkeep that gets overlooked is cleaning your wheelchair. Believe it or not, your power chair needs to be cleaned regularly. Keeping your power chair clean can help extend the life of the chair and its components. And, it also keeps it looking nice and presentable. Especially if you’re taking it outdoors. Here are a few important tips and tricks so you can learn how to clean your wheelchair.
IMPORTANT NOTE – Please make sure your electric wheelchair/power chair is OFF before any cleaning takes place. It may be best to turn off the chair and fully remove the battery prior to cleaning to avoid potential electric shock, unintended movement of the chair, and damage to the electrical components of the chair.
The Chair Itself – Cushions, Backrest, and Armrests
Similar to the seat cushions of your car or couch, your seat cushion and backrest should be cleaned regularly. This can prevent odor and will keep the cushion fresh and clean. It also can prevent dirt and bacteria from building up that can slowly eat away at the material. And, even wear down the fabric faster. Some cushions have a removable cover that you can throw into your washing machine.
For models that don’t allow that, you’ll have to wipe it or scrub it clean with a damp cloth or per the care instructions that came with your power chair. Some power chairs that use rubber or vinyl seats must be cleaned using a damp cloth. Since the cushions are not machine washable, it is usually best to spray the cushion with some sort of scented fabric spray that fights off odors. And keeps the cushion smelling good. With that said, it is not recommended to spray a scented fabric spray on vinyl and rubber seats as the ingredients may cause damage to the material. The armrests are usually able to be wiped clean using a damp cloth.
Wheels
Keeping the wheels clean is simple. Since the wheels on power chairs can get wet, you can clean them with warm water and light detergent. Like light dish soap, like Dawn. You can also clean the wheels with wipes that you would use to clean the surfaces in your car’s interior. With that said, be mindful of the ingredients in the cleaning products you use as some ingredients may be too harsh for certain materials. Some people prefer to wipe down their wheels with a damp cloth and nothing more.
You can scrub the thread of the wheels with a soft or medium bristle brush. Like a household cleaning brush, a toothbrush, or even a paintbrush depending on how stiff the bristles are. Since wheels for power chairs are either flat-free rubber or pneumatic air-filled tires, we do not recommend using anything with metal bristles. Using metal bristles on solid rubber tires can cause scratches and damage to the wheels. Using metal bristles on pneumatic tires can puncture the wheel, which will cause it to go flat. If you plan to drive your chair right after cleaning your wheelchair wheels, we highly recommend ensuring the wheels are dry to prevent any sort of slipping. Use extreme caution when washing the wheels that are attached to the motor as the motor cannot get wet. We’ll talk more about motors later.
Frame
The frame of power chairs is easy to clean considering they are usually made of some kind of metal. Power chair frames are usually made of aluminum or magnesium or another type of metal. You should be able to simply wipe the frame clean with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. It is also recommended to dry the frame using a dry towel or cloth after cleaning it to prevent any discoloration. Or, in some cases, rust. Similar to the rest of the chair, try to avoid using any harsh chemicals when cleaning your wheelchair frame, as harsh chemicals can strip the finish off of the frame. If there is anything stuck to the frame that needs to be scrubbed off, such as mud, it is recommended to use a soft-bristled brush with light dish soap and warm water. Again, do not use any sort of metal bristles or strong harsh cleaners to scrub the frame as it will result in damage.
Controls / Joystick and Motor
Joysticks are easy to clean. You can usually just wipe them down. However, joysticks and the control panels are usually made with or covered in a soft rubber material that can be damaged by harsh chemicals. Joysticks and control panels should never be washed in water. This is because of the electrical components of the power chair. Therefore, it should never get soaked or submerged. The charging port, which is sometimes located on the joystick, will be damaged if it gets wet. And, this will prevent the chair from charging with that port. Keep all water away from the charging port or keep the rubber cover on it. If the charging port needs to be cleaned, compressed air is the best thing to use.
The motor is one of the most important parts of any electric wheelchair or power chair. Because of this, it should be cleaned with extreme caution. Make sure no part of the motor gets wet. Otherwise, the chair will no longer work. Use extreme caution when you clean the wheels attached to the motors. Ensure no water gets in them. The easiest and best way to clean any debris from the inside of the motor is to spray it with compressed air. If there is too much debris within the motor to properly clean it, it is recommended that you contact the manufacturer or company from which you purchased your power chair for further guidance.
Cleaning your EasyGo
EasyGo power chairs are among the easiest power chairs to clean. The joystick is removable and you can wipe it clean with a damp cloth. The charging port located at the bottom of the joystick has a rubber cap that you can use when the chair is not charging. Especially when you are cleaning the joystick. If there is any debris in the charging port, use compressed air to clean it out. The frame of the EasyGo power chair can be wiped clean using a damp cloth and should be wiped dry to avoid water stains or discoloration. Wheels should be wiped clean or scrubbed using a small cleaning brush with warm water and light dish soap. If the rear wheels require scrubbing with water and soap, ensure the motor does not get wet or cover the motors to prevent any water from getting in. EasyGo power chairs also have a removable seat and backrest cover that are machine washable. The cover for the seat cushion can be removed from the cushion and is also machine washable. Because of this, EasyGo power chairs are very simple to keep clean and in good shape!
Conclusion
Electric wheelchairs are a big investment so you want to ensure you get the most out of your purchase. Keeping your wheelchair clean is just as important as all other maintenance. It will help extend the life of your chair and its components and will keep your chair looking good. It will also help with the performance of your chair. We hope these tips help you clean your wheelchair. Thank you for choosing EasyGo Mobility.
When you receive a new electric wheelchair or power chair, the first thing you want to do is get in and go. You want to test out your new set of wheels and enjoy your restored mobile independence. As you ride your electric wheelchair, you will get accustomed to how it drives. Like, how it handles turns, and overall, how it maneuvers. There are many things to take into consideration when riding around in your new electric wheelchair. With some customer feedback and research, EasyGo Mobility has put together a list of 6 tips for driving an electric wheelchair.
1. General Considerations
The speed, turning radius, width, and length of your electric wheelchair should always be taken into consideration. These factors come into play when coming to a full stop or trying to complete any turns. We’ll get into these soon.
Similar to driving a car, you should be checking all your blind spots. Especially the ground and your lower surroundings. Make sure you’re looking behind you before you back up. If you have a horn or indicator, use it. Even if no one is behind you, there may be somebody around the corner you don’t see who has no idea you’re about to back up. So, your horn is a great tool.
If you need to get up from your chair, fold up your footplate. This will allow you enough room in front of you to safely stand and move away from and around your chair. Also, ensure you have enough room around you if you need to fold or unfold your chair. Having a general idea of safety and driving will take you and your wheelchair a long way!
2. Consider the Length and Width of your Wheelchair
You can sometimes forget how long and wide your electric wheelchair is. While most electric wheelchairs have no issues going through standard doorways, it is still good to consider your angle when coming through a doorway. Make sure you are straight to avoid bumping. And, don’t get too close to the doorframe or you could end up bumping and hurting your hand.
Try to avoid making any turns until you have made sure the full length of your chair is through the doorway. And that there are no obstacles in your way. You also want to be aware of the width as you drive down narrow hallways. Knowing the length also helps when backing up.
As mentioned previously, it’s a good idea to look behind you as you back up. This will ensure you don’t back into anything or anyone. Overall, take the width and length of your electric wheelchair into consideration. And, make sure you have sufficient room to move all around your wheelchair. It can take some practice before you are spacially aware of your wheelchair’s size. So, don’t get discouraged if you have a few bumps along the way.
3. Understand Your Turning Radius
You must also consider your turning radius. Depending on the model of the wheelchair you have, the turning radius will be different. And, is just as important as anything else on this list. The turning radius defines how much space you need to make a turn. When turning in your chair, it is necessary to ensure there is sufficient room for your wheels, handles, armrests, footplate, basket, or anything that you have sticking out of your wheelchair. If you do not have enough room to turn, simply reverse and don’t go forward unless you know there is sufficient room and your path is clear of obstacles.
4. Your Weight
Your weight also plays a factor in driving your chair. Depending on your electric wheelchair and regardless of the weight capacity, your weight can still affect the performance of your power chair. Your weight can affect how quickly the chair accelerates, the top speed, how quickly it reaches its top speed, and most importantly, how quickly it comes to a full stop once the brake engages. Weight also accelerates how fast wear and tear can occur. While you may be within weight capacity for your wheelchair, your weight could be putting additional strain on the motors shortening their life expectancy.
The same goes for the battery. If the battery needs to work harder to accommodate additional weight on the chair, it will lose power a little faster requiring it to be charged sooner. The tread on your wheels can also be affected by your weight. This is because extra weight will cause the tires to turn harder on the ground wearing them down more quickly. Ensure you keep your weight at capacity or less than the capacity supported by your wheelchair to ensure it lasts as long as possible.
5. Brakes and Stopping Distance
Despite the stopping distance reported by the manufacturer, you should do your testing on the brakes. Find a safe spot where you can test out the brakes and stopping distance of your chair. This helps give you a good idea of how soon to let go of your joystick to allow sufficient time and space for a safe stop. Use a stopwatch and tape measure or ruler to measure how long it takes, both in time and distance, for your chair to stop. Do this at all speeds. If you feel are going too fast to stop before hitting something, you should try putting your chair into reverse. This stops the motor from accelerating the chair forward and can help stop your chair faster.
6. Speed
The last tip for driving an electric wheelchair is to understand your speed. It is usually best to change the speed to your preference and depending on where you will be driving your chair. You may find that a lower speed works better indoors. Going at a lower speed indoors avoids obstacles and ensures you get around your home safely. It helps when entering a room or making a turn. Higher speeds are usually best outdoors or in larger areas where you have more room to move with fewer obstacles. As long as your ground clearance will allow it, higher speeds outdoors will also get you over small obstacles such as little cracks and bumps.
As previously mentioned, testing your speed also gives you a chance to test the brakes. See how long it takes to come to a full stop when you let go of the joystick and the brake engages. Doing this at all speeds will give you a great idea of when to stop wherever you are.
Driving an EasyGo
EasyGo power chairs live up to the “Easy” in the name. Not only do they fold and unfold in under 30 seconds, but they also come fully assembled and ready to go right out of the box. They are lightweight enough to lift and load into your vehicle and have been reported by customers as being one of the easiest and most convenient power chairs to use. EasyGo power chairs are just over 2 ft wide, making them compact enough to easily drive through standard doorways. With a tight turning radius of 28.3 inches, EasyGo power chairs turn smoothly and effortlessly. They also have a horn button on the joystick panel that allows you to let everyone know you are coming through. Once the brake is engaged by letting go of the joystick, EasyGo power chairs come to a full stop within 39 inches or less of when you let go. EasyGo power chairs can travel up to 15 miles on a single battery charge at speeds up to 3.7 MPH, which is a little faster than it sounds. The Standard model power chair weighs 51 lbs. including the battery and holds a max weight of 250 lbs. The bestselling Elite model power chair weighs 56 lbs. with the battery and holds a max weight of 264 lbs. Driving an EasyGo power chair truly is easy.
Conclusion
Driving an electric wheelchair involves more than just getting in and going. There are many factors to consider in how to safely drive your electric wheelchair. Considering and being mindful of these factors as you drive will ensure safe trips with no accidents. Make sure you check all your surroundings, let people know that you are coming through, and ensure you are traveling at a safe speed where a sudden stop will not be a problem. We hope these tips help you become a better electric wheelchair driver. We wish you all safe driving and thank you for choosing EasyGo Mobility.
As a current or future wheelchair user, you may be asking yourself, “How can I transport a wheelchair?”. The ability to travel with your wheelchair and take it with you everywhere you go can help you regain your mobile independence. In this article, we are going to go through a number of ways that you can transport a wheelchair, so you can make an informed decision on what will work best for your needs, budget, and lifestyle.
Foldable Wheelchair
Folding wheelchairs come in at number one on our list of ways that you can transport a wheelchair. This is because, without a doubt, it is the easiest and most affordable for wheelchair users. Here atEasyGo Mobility, we provide foldable electric wheelchairs that fold in 3 easy steps, so you don’t have to fidget with disassembling pieces. With the ability to fold into a compact size, you will still be able to use your trunk for shopping bags. Additionally, our folding wheelchairs are more affordable than any other option mentioned on this list, not to mention we offer various financing options.
Disassembling Wheelchair
The second most popular way to transport a wheelchair is by using a disassembling wheelchair. As the name implies, this type of wheelchair can break down into multiple parts. This makes them more manageable to lift up and put into the trunk of your vehicle. Keep in mind that disassembling may be difficult for some people who have limited mobility or arthritis in their fingers, wrists, and/or arms. Additionally, if you have a hard time bending over, disassembling wheelchairs could be difficult to manage if you plan on using it fairly regularly. If you want to read a comparison of foldable vs disassembling wheelchairs, check out this article.
Platform Lift
A platform lift, like the Bruno Joey Platform Lift shown below, is able to lift up your wheelchair or mobility scooter from the ground and into your vehicle. A platform lift is very convenient as you can drive your wheelchair right onto the platform. They have a 350-pound weight capacity, so most scooters and wheelchairs under this weight are compatible. Then, use the remote to automatically raise the lift, and bring it safely into your vehicle. This can be a good option for those that have difficulties bending over. But, as you can see, this lift requires a large SUV or van in order to accommodate. Additionally, you lose out on storage in your trunk as it takes up a lot of space. Keep in mind that platform lifts can be on the more expensive side.
Hitch Lift
Hitch lifts, like theBruno Out-Siderseen below, can carry wheelchairs or scooters on the outside of your vehicle. This can be helpful if your vehicle has a towing ability, but not enough space for a platform lift. Additionally, you will still have access to your trunk for storage. Again, this type of lift can accommodate wheelchairs or scooters weighing 350 pounds or less. A hitch lift is generally more affordable than a platform lift as it is easier to install and has fewer mechanics, but is still fairly expensive.
Wheelchair Accessible Van
Of course, a wheelchair-accessible van is always an option if you are looking to transport a wheelchair. These types of vans are converted specifically for wheelchair users. They offer either rear ramps or side door ramps to help the wheelchair user drive right into the van. This is a great option if you have assistance with you when you are looking to use it. Wheelchair-accessible vans can be upwards of a hundred thousand dollars, so keep this in mind if you are considering it. Some may be able to get insurance coverage or grants from charities.
Accessible Taxi Services
Most taxi companies in your area will have a handful of wheelchair-accessible vehicles. But, they can be difficult to book from time to time and you typically have to book at least a few hours in advance, if not more. Recently Uber has come out with UberWAV, which can accommodate electric wheelchair users who do not use foldable electric wheelchairs. Simply download the Uber app to your phone, and choose the option UberWAV when you are selecting which type of ride want. UberWAV is not available everywhere and still may require pre-booking due to how new it is. But, it is a step in the right direction for taxi companies to become more accessible.
Portable Wheelchair Ramp
Portable wheelchair ramps can be a good option for those with a heavy wheelchair that does not disassemble. A lot of smaller wheelchairs can fit in the back of an SUV or van with the seats down. If you have the space, a ramp might be a good option for you. Ramps are definitely one of the more affordable options on this list, but require a decent amount of strength and stability to roll your wheelchair up the ramp and into your vehicle.
Public Transportation
One of the less-fun options on this list is public transportation. Public transportation, like city buses, can accommodate most sizes of wheelchairs. Every city will have different size requirements for wheelchairs and other mobility equipment, so if you’re unsure, it’s best to reach out to your area’s transportation office. Public transportation is the most affordable option on this list, but it comes with its cons. Bad weather, a full bus, indirect routes, and unfriendly passengers can all make public transportation a less-than-ideal option.
Roof Chair Topper
I left this option for last, as it’s not a super popular way to transport a wheelchair. But, it’s still good to mention it because it might be convenient for you. One of the most popular versions of the roof chair topper is by BraunAbility, seen below. This specific chair topper is essentially a capsule that sits on the top of your vehicle. Then, it is able to lift the wheelchair up, and then turn it horizontally so it sits inside of the capsule while you are driving. Not every roof chair topper is this fancy, you can find some that are more manual, which will be more affordable. Keep in mind that this might not work on all vehicles, and will add weight and height to your vehicle as well.
Practice Makes Perfect
The first time that you load up your wheelchair, no matter how you do it, it will be difficult. Every way that you can transport a wheelchair will have a learning curve. But, the more times you do it, the easier it will be. You will get faster and more comfortable transporting your wheelchair in no time.
Closing Statements
There are a number of ways that you are able to transport a wheelchair. Hopefully, in the future, there will be even more as accessibility options become more available. If you are between a few different options, try to make a chart and weigh out the pros and cons of each option. This can make it easier to visualize how you will transport a wheelchair on a regular basis. If you have any questions about EasyGo Mobility’s foldable power chairs, don’t hesitate to reach out.

We wanted to provide Americans with a power chair that was not only one of the lightest available, but also easy and quick to both use, and fold. This is the inspiration behind creating the EasyGo Powerchair. Other power chairs are either not portable, very heavy, or unable to fold. But EasyGo has it all.
We are going to walk you through exactly how to fold the EasyGo Powerchair.
Stick around, it’s going to be a smooth ride…
Folding your EasyGo Powerchair may seem daunting at first but we promise, it is like learning your ABCs, once you know how, it will be second nature!
First, start with folding down the top of the backrest to expose the casters. (Keep in mind, these casters are very useful when pulling the folded chair behind you as you walk.)
Second, fold the anti-tipping wheels by pulling on the round lever and folding the wheels inward. You will hear a click when they are in the correct place.
Third, pull on the cord at the back of the chair, behind the seat cushion, and pull the chair towards you. This allows it to rest on the casters while the chair folds and automatically locks in place.
For further security, the seat strap can be used to wrap around the chair. Once your EasyGo Powerchair is fully folded, you can use the convenient strap handle to wheel the chair behind you. Or, lift it to load into a vehicle.
