Keith. Sitting and standing in comfort

The challenge

Keith loves playing online games with his friends, but he struggles to sit and stand safely. When sitting, he lacks the strength to control his descent, which makes his chair unstable and puts him at risk of falling. He also needs his wife’s help to stand, which puts them both at risk and limits her independence.

The solution

The VELA Tango 700e chair gives Keith the stability and support he needs. The four-wheel base and easy-to-use brake keep the chair secure when sitting. The electric lift raises him to a safe standing height at the touch of a button and without his wife’s support. Comfort cushions also provide extra support for extended use.

Another feature of the Tango 700e is the electric height adjustment. This detail gives Keith the perfect working height to sit comfortably in any room of his home with a safe, supported posture. But most importantly, it’s given both Keith and his wife greater independence.
