Lugano Powerchair

The Roma medical Shoprider Lugano is a standard mid-wheel drive powered wheelchair capable both indoors and out. Large wheels and articulating castor beams give the Lugano good outdoors performance, while the mid-wheel drive keeps it manoeuvrable when used inside. The captain’s seat provides ample comfort for those needing a standard seat, and comes with a headrest too.

The Lugano features large 14 inch drive wheels, much bigger than those found on most other powerchairs, and this helps it perform outdoors, as well as giving a smoother ride. Articulating front and rear axles complements this, as well as the pneumatic tyres. This combines to give the Lugano better performance outdoors than more basic mid-wheel drive powerchairs such as the Jazzy Select 6.

Just as usable indoors, the mid-wheel drive allows the Lugano to turn on the spot, making it more manoeuvrable than traditional rear-wheel drive powerchairs. The high-back captain’s seat is comfortable to use, and features a basic headrest too. The seat is a “standard” and minimal adjustments can be made to it, meaning that people with more advanced seating and postural needs, or whose needs may change, are unlikely to find the Lugano suitable. However, for those after a comfortable standard seat, it is ideal. A flip-up footplate comes as standard, ideal for storage and manoeuvrability, while swing-away footrests can be supplied if required as an optional extra
