Your
approach to buying any used electric wheel chair should basically be the same as you would if your buying a new electric wheelchair. Price will be the considering factor but ensure that you focus on getting the right wheelchair that wil meet your individual needs.
Electric wheelchairs are designed for different needs, some such as a power wheelchair are great outdoors but lack the maneurverability indoors.
Other models can easily be dismantled to fit into the trunk of a large car but have a limted weight restriction. Some electric wheel chairs can navigate your narow hall ways at home but are unsuitable for external use.

Whether
you choose to buy online or by other means, you will first need to identify the type of used electric wheelchair to suit your needs.
Here is a few questions you will need to ask yourself:
- Will I be using my electric
wheelchair primarily outside, inside, or both?
- If I will be using my electric wheel chair
outside, will I be climbing hills and curbs?
- What is the narrowest width
that my chair must pass through?
- Will I be transporting my
chair?
- How much do I weigh? All
chairs have weight limits.
