    For the user who needs upper body positioning, a shoulder harness or lateral supports may be needed provide the user with better trunk positioning. The Convaid Cruiser offer offers a variety of trunk positioning option including: 5-point harnesses with padded covers, swing away adjustable support flap with scoli strap, and a full torso swing-away-vest support.

    Does the Convaid Cruiser have an option for a shoulder harness?
    Yes, the Convaid Cruiser stroller features an optional padded shoulder harness with a 3-point positioning belt with depth adjustable crotch strap, creating a 5-point safety harness.

    Can I order a sun canopy for the Cruiser Stroller?
    Yes, the Convaid Cruiser does have an option for a sun canopy.

    What is the transit model stroller and how is it different from the basic stroller?

    A transit stroller or transit wheelchair means that they are WC19 Bus Transit ready and can be occupied while traveling in a properly equipped bus or van. WC19 Wheelchair Safety Standard is a voluntary standard, which improves the safety and security of your child when seated in their wheelchair aboard a school bus or van. Their safety and security applies to all aspects of transportation, but particularly in the event of a vehicle crash. The transit model includes a crash tested frame, hold down brackets, headrest extension, padded shoulder harness with a 3-point positioning belt with depth adjustable crotch strap, and foot positioners.

    How do I determine which size stroller to purchase?
    Refer to our Sizing Chart under the Specifications tab. You will need to focus on the seat depth, seat width, seat back height, seat to footrest, and weight capacity. The user's thighs should be slightly spread apart. The proper seat width measurement is decided by taking the widest point between the hips and the knees when sitting comfortably and adding about 1 to 2 inches for comfort and growth. For help with measuring and fitting the user, use our Measurement Chart or contact one of our seating specialists at 877-664-4565.

    If I have the user’s overall height or weight, will that be enough in determining the correct size?
    No. And the reason for this is that every user is built differently, it is always best to refer to the Sizing Chart on the Specifications tab. For example, if you have a user who is tall and skinny and doesn’t weigh much, they may still need to be in a larger chair due to their overall length. This is why we recommend completing the Measurement Chart and reviewing those measurements against the Sizing Chart. This will also help in selecting a stroller that will allow for growing room as well.

    Fitting Guide
    Convaid’s lightweight, folding chairs are designed to be more than just a convenient chair. Order the correct size chair by first determining the user’s height, weight and seating measurements. Properly-fitted, Convaid chairs will provide years of comfortable use. As your child grows, refer back to this Fitting Guide to adjust the dimensions of the chair.

    Correct seating and positioning encourages good posture, which in turn aids circulation, breathing and digestion. Please take the time to properly adjust the chair to fit the user. If the user is not correctly positioned, check the accessories section of this manual to see if one or more of our accessories would help to facilitate posture or consult your physical therapist. Improper seating can create problems with posture. Please consult your child’s physical therapist or doctor for additional guidance.
