{"title":"Voyageur Heavy Duty","description":"\u003ch1\u003eMerits Voyageur Heavy Duty Bariatric Wheelchairs\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a standard wheelchair can't accommodate a larger frame, weight capacity and seat width become the whole conversation. The Merits Voyageur Heavy Duty line is built as a true bariatric chair, supporting up to 400 lbs on a reinforced steel frame that doesn't flex or fatigue under daily use. This is the chair to reach for when comfort, durability, and a genuinely stable ride matter more than a lightweight travel profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe most important decision here is seat width, and the Voyageur gives you three: 20-inch, 22-inch, and 24-inch models. A properly sized seat isn't just about comfort — too narrow and it pinches, too wide and the user loses lateral support and struggles to reach the wheels. Measure hip width while seated and add roughly two inches for clothing and shifting. Each width shares the same core build:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposite mag wheels that shed the maintenance of spoked rims and won't rust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable, full-length arms that make side transfers to a bed or commode far easier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwing-away, detachable footrests to clear the front for standing pivots or foot-propelling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadded, reinforced upholstery sized for the heavier user\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe removable-arm design is often the deciding feature for caregivers, since sliding a user sideways is safer than lifting over a fixed armrest. Delivery arrives largely assembled — footrests clip on and arms lock into place in minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf the Voyageur's specs are close but not quite right, compare it against other bariatric options like the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/dominator-extra-heavy-duty\"\u003eDominator Extra Heavy Duty\u003c\/a\u003e for higher capacity needs, or the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/9000-topaz-heavy-duty\"\u003e9000 Topaz Heavy Duty\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/hp500-heavy-duty\"\u003eHP500 Heavy Duty\u003c\/a\u003e for alternative seat and frame configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"merits-voyageur-bariatric-wheelchair-with-removable-arm-composite-mag-wheel-20-in-seat-swing-away-footrest-400-lbs","title":"Merits Voyageur Bariatric Wheelchair with Removable Arm, Composite Mag Wheel, 20 in.
