The Ben NG self-propelled wheelchair is suitable for those who can self-propel themselves independently in a wheelchair. It comes with rear handles so that in certain situations, you can still get the assistance of an attendant to push the wheelchair.
Well known for its simple and easy-to-use functionality, it is considered one of the most durable and reliable frame designs.
Ideal for storage and transportation with a compact foldable chassis, folding back posts and swing-away leg rests, ensuring the Invacare Ben NG supports individuals’ everyday activities and lifestyles.
This wheelchair is crash-tested, so compatible for use inside a vehicle such as an ambulance, minibus, taxi or car, whilst the service user remains in the seat. It has anchor points, so the wheelchair can be secured into place with straps, meaning the wheelchair will not move in the event of an accident.
Customisable options: Available in the standard Ben NG specification (self-propelled or transit) and a heavy-duty specification with a reinforced frame, the Invacare Ben NG caters to most individuals who require a manual wheelchair for short term use.
