How to buy an electric wheelchair

If you’re looking to buy an electric wheelchair, you might have looked our powerchair range but you may still be unclear how you should go about purchasing!

So, in this article, we’ll explain the three ways to buy an electric wheelchair from Felgains so you can decide which is the best route for you to take.

Buying an electric wheelchair in-store

You can buy one of our electric wheelchairs in-store by visiting our Ipswich showroom. The main benefit of this is you’ll be able to see and try all available models before you buy.

For customers that don’t live within the region, this will obviously require some travel. However, our customers tell us that it’s worth the trip – and we can have tea, coffee or a hot chocolate ready when you get here!

You don’t have to book an appointment to visit our showroom and look at our powerchair range. However, if you’re able to confirm a date/time, it does ensure we can give you our full attention! You can let us know you’re coming on 01473 741144 or send us a message.

Buying an electric wheelchair via home assessment

If you’re unable to visit our showroom, we can arrange a home assessment for you. We’ll discuss your needs beforehand to identify which powerchair models are likely to meet your needs best. This may be slightly more limiting than a showroom visit, but works well if you have a pretty good idea of what you’re after. And you’ll still get the same professional assessment and personal advice as you would by visiting our showroom.

We’re usually able to book a home visit within a week of your enquiry. If you like to arrange this, just give us a call on 01473 741144 or send us a message.

Buying an electric wheelchair online

For lower spec electric wheelchairs, such as travel powerchairs, it’s possible to buy them on our website. This works well if you know what you want and/or you can’t visit our showroom. Our expert advisors are on hand to discuss your needs over the phone if you need some advice first.

We should point out that not all electric wheelchair models and options are available as yet to buy online, so do let us know if you’re having a problem ordering what you’d like.
