The New Revolution For Those In Wheelchairs!
For those who need a wheelchair for mobility this site is going to be a must see! This website has everything to accessorize your chair, from weather covers so you don’t get wet in the rain, to bags to hang onto the side of the armrests that way you can access magazines, remotes, and many other items that you may need. They have parts for replacements and even cup holders!
My Favorite item is the canopies! These are like umbrellas that attach to your chair, so that if it’s raining you don’t get wet or have to attempt to maneuver your chair while holding an umbrella. They are even great for those with sun sensitivities as they have models that go even down the sides of the chair, so that you are sure to be sealed from the sun.
There are equipment bags to attach to the chair to place your canes, or crutches, so that it’s easily accessed and not in the way.
Another favorite of mine is the threshold ramps. These are great little inventions for those nasty thresholds between rooms that make it bumpy and at times impossible to cross, with the chair often times resulting in getting stuck. However, with these rubber threshold ramps you just place them on the threshold and voila! You can now go in and out of rooms without annoying bumps or getting stuck.
What about those annoying times when you’re watching TV or sitting somewhere not near a table and you want a snack, or to be able to write, but have to either reach over to place the items on a table that is either too high or too low for you? Or you must wheel yourself to the table and you hadn’t wanted to leave the particular room you were in? Now there are trays made especially for a wheelchair and scooters which can attach to the chair and some are even collapsible on the sides, so that it is always there when you need it.
Diestco.com is a great site where convenience meets ingenouity and the results are amazing gadgets for those in wheelchairs to make their lives more comfortable and enjoyable!
If you are in a wheelchair, you might as well ride around in style!
