9000 XT Recliner Wheelchair (Configurable)

Width:

While seated, measure the user from the widest point of the hips. Choose a seat about 1–2" wider for comfort.

Depth:

While seated, measure the user from the back of the buttocks to the inner surface of the back of the knee. Choose a seat depth 1–2" shallower.

The seat-to-floor height is the distance from the top of the wheelchair seat to the floor. Choosing the correct height is important for posture, stability, and comfort. To find the right fit, have the user sit upright with shoes on — their feet should rest flat on the floor with a slight bend at the knees (about 90–100°). Measure from the inside of the knee to the floor.

• 19.5” (Standard Height): The most common choice and works well for most adult users. Requires 24” rear wheels.
• 18.5”: Slightly lower seating position, often preferred by shorter users or those who want easier foot contact with the floor. Requires 22” rear wheels.
• 17.5”: Lowest seating option, commonly selected by users who self-propel with their feet or need a lower center of gravity. Requires 20” rear wheels.

Armrests provide support and stability while seated and when transferring into or out of the wheelchair. The 9000 XT Recliner offers four armrest options that vary by pad length and height. All armrests are easily removable to simplify lateral transfers, create additional space when arm support is not needed, and aid transport and storage.

Length Options:

• Desk-Length (9") – Ends closer to the back of the seat so the user can pull up more easily to a desk, table, or counter.
• Full-Length (13") – Extends farther forward to provide more forearm support and a larger surface to push from when standing up.

Height Options:

• Fixed Height (10") – A stable, non-adjustable height for consistent support.
• Adjustable Height (10–14") – Allows the armrest height to be tailored to the user’s posture, cushion thickness, and comfort needs.

The 9000 XT Recliner offers several upholstery options that differ in durability, breathability, and support. Material choices include nylon, vinyl, or a sail-cloth adjustable-tension seat design, allowing users to choose the level of comfort and performance that best meets their needs.

Nylon Upholstery:

Lightweight, breathable, and comfortable for everyday use. Nylon promotes airflow to help keep the user cooler and dries quickly after cleaning. Because it is a porous fabric, it may absorb spills or odors over time and may require more frequent cleaning in clinical environments.

Vinyl Upholstery:

Vinyl is highly durable and moisture-resistant, making it easy to wipe clean and ideal for clinical or high-use settings where sanitation is important. However, the material is less breathable than nylon and can trap heat or moisture during prolonged sitting.

Sail-cloth:

Made from a heavy-duty sail-cloth material that is highly durable, tear-resistant, and designed to hold its shape under long-term use. It provides a firmer, more supportive seating surface compared to standard nylon.

The reinforced seat upholstery includes two internal liners instead of the standard single liner, providing added strength and durability. This upgrade is ideal for users who require additional support or expect heavier, long-term use of the wheelchair.

The reinforced back upholstery uses two internal liners rather than the standard single liner, offering increased durability and support. This option is beneficial for users who need stronger backrest reinforcement for daily or high-demand use.

Casters play a key role in how the wheelchair steers, handles bumps, and performs on different surfaces. The 9000 XT Recliner offers several caster sizes and tire types so you can balance maneuverability, durability, and ride comfort.

• Urethane tires are firm, durable, and maintenance-free.
• Pneumatic & semi-pneumatic tires provide more shock absorption for a smoother ride.
• Flat-free inserts offer pneumatic-style comfort without the risk of going flat.

Rear wheels play a major role in how the wheelchair rolls, handles different surfaces, and feels to propel. The 9000 XT Recliner offers multiple rear wheel styles, each designed to balance durability, traction, and ride quality. Rear wheels are available in 20", 22" and 24", offering a variety of seat-to-floor height possibilities.

Handrims provide the surface the user grips to propel the wheelchair. The 9000 XT Recliner offers multiple material and style options to match the user’s comfort, hand strength, and propulsion technique. Composite handrims offer a durable, low-maintenance option, while aluminum and plastic-coated aluminum provide different grip characteristics. Projection-style handrims are also available for users who cannot grasp a traditional rim.

Wheel locks secure the wheelchair in place during transfers and stationary use. The 9000 XT Recliner offers both caregiver- and patient-operated options, allowing you to choose the configuration that best matches how the chair will be used.
