Re: [QUAD-L] Transfers & Chairs

You absolutely correct about the Roho cushion.  To overcome that problem, you just have to live chair butt a little higher instead of sliding.  I also slide into an electric wheelchair.  Without obstruction from the armrests I can slide right in without having to angle the chair.   T.

What kind do you use? I am obviously not going to be able to do it into a electric wheelchair. The legs are like 8 lbs each! Thanks
