Children grow fast! Before you know it, they have outgrown their clothes, shoes and even their wheelchair. For this reason, many parents intentionally select a wheelchair that is one size to large in anticipation of their child’s growth - an understandable solution to increase the life span of the chair, and also save thousands of dollars. But, there is a problem with this solution…an oversized wheelchair does not provide the proper positioning your child needs.
The Reducer Seat Insert was specifically designed to provide proper positioning in an oversized wheelchair! The Reducer Seat Insert is a cushion that easily slips into the seat of any chair to reduce the seat width 2". The ribbed surface is comfortable and promotes airflow. It’s water resistant, lightweight, and folds flat for storage. Latex-free.

Cover: Spandex- LYCRA®
Spandex- LYCRA® is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional elasticity. It is widely used in the clothing and swimwear industries.
LYCRA® has unique stretch and recovery properties. LYCRA® fiber adds comfort, fit, shape retention, durability and freedom of movement. This is achieved thanks to the unique properties of the fiber, which can be stretched up to seven times its initial length before springing back to the original position once tension is released.
Foam center: 2 lb EVA foam (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate)
