Stable Mobility Scooter:
Stability is always an important factor in power scooter choice. It is a key part of your buying decision to understand whether you need a mobility scooter or a medically approved device for people with mobility disabilities. One option is to choose a heavier traditional four-wheeled mobility scooter if stability is a possible issue or if you are confined to a seated position by a disability. Many heavier four-wheeled scooters are FDA/Medicare approved as ‘power mobility devices’. If your lifestyle demands a lightweight, foldable mobility scooter, choosing a three-wheeled scooter with an adjustable rear wheelbase like SmartScoot enables both versatility and stability.
