April 5, 2024

Versatility at Your Fingertips

At Monroe Medical Supplies, we understand that living life to the fullest means being with the people you love and going where you want to go. That's why we are excited to spotlight the Nova 332 Heavy Duty Transport Chair, a versatile and essential mobility aid for those who need assistance in getting around.


Transport Chair vs. Wheelchair: Lightweight and Maneuverable

First, let's clarify the difference between a transport chair and a wheelchair. While wheelchairs are typically self-propelled by the user, transport chairs are designed to be lighter and more maneuverable, making them easier for a caregiver to push. This distinction is important, especially for those who require assistance with mobility.


The Nova 332 stands out as an ideal choice for transport, travel, and safety. Its lightweight aluminum frame and padded upholstery ensure comfort during use. The 12" rugged rear wheels, equipped with Nova's patented locking hand brakes, provide stability and control on various terrains, including inclines and bumps.

Key Features of the Nova 332

1. Versatile Design: The Nova 332 is much easier to transport and maneuver than a traditional wheelchair. Its lightweight aluminum frame and compact foldability make it an excellent choice for travel and everyday use. Whether you're navigating tight spaces at home or exploring outdoor environments, the Nova 332 offers exceptional maneuverability and convenience.


2. Safety Features: Safety is paramount, and the Nova 332 is designed with a range of features to ensure a secure and stable experience. It comes equipped with secondary wheel locks, allowing caregivers to immobilize the chair when necessary. The removable Anti-Tippers add an extra layer of safety, preventing tipping on uneven terrain or inclines. Additionally, the locking hand brakes empower caregivers to control the chair's speed and park it securely, enhancing safety on all types of surfaces.

3. Easy User Transfer: Transferring individuals in and out of the Nova 332 is effortless, thanks to its removable padded desk arms. These arms provide support during transfers from a car, bed, or other seating surfaces. They can also be flipped up or removed entirely, allowing the user to "ride up" to a desk or dining table without obstruction. This feature enhances both comfort and functionality, making daily activities more accessible and enjoyable.


4. Heavy-Duty Capacity: Despite its lightweight and compact design, the Nova 332 is built to handle heavy-duty use. With an extra-wide 22" seat and a reinforced frame, it boasts a remarkable weight capacity of up to 400 lbs. This capacity accommodates users of varying sizes and ensures long-lasting durability, making the Nova 332 a reliable choice for individuals with diverse mobility needs.


5. Adjustable Footrests: Comfort is key, and the Nova 332 prioritizes user comfort with its adjustable footrests. These footrests are easy to remove, adjust, and lock back into place, allowing users to find their optimal leg support position. The inclusion of heel loops further enhances comfort by providing a secure resting place for the feet. Whether sitting for extended periods or engaging in activities, users can enjoy optimal support and comfort with the Nova 332's adjustable footrests.
