| The new Invacare® SolaraTM chair is simply the most exciting tilt-in space chair ever invented. It incorporates features never before available on manual tilting chair, because it is built around a radically new concept - keeping the client's center of gravity almost perfectly stationary throughout the entire 55° tilt range. This allows for a dramatically more compact wheelbase, without sacrificing stability. It makes tilting the chair almost effortless, since the client's weight is not a factor in the tilting process. And it can decrease startle reflex, since the client is tilted into the frame rather than around a fixed pivot point. But there's more to the Solara than a stationary center of gravity. A built in 2" drop base facilitates remarkably low seat-to-floor heights. A standard flared front end increases space for feet between the casters. A positive lock mechanism eliminates the "sponginess" common to hydraulic locking cylinders. And for the first time ever on a manual tilt-in-space chair, the caregiver can tell at what angle the chair is tilted, thanks to a tilt angle indicator. It's ingenious. State of the art. And simple. That's the Invacare Solara. | Highlights · Center of gravity remains consistent throughout tilt range · Dramatically shorter wheelbase · Positive lock mechanism eliminates "sponginess" common to locking hydraulic cylinders · Tilt angle indicator · Standard frame includes a built-in 2" drop base · Telescoping front end · Standard flared front provides more space for user's feet and reduces interference when tilting in the anterior direction · 350 lb. weight limit when ordered with the heavy-duty option package · Wheel lock for 12" wheels operated by attendant's foot · Available seat widths of 14"-22" · Available seat depths of 15"-22" · Seat-to-floor heights of 14"-17.25" when seat pan is attached to crossmembers · Seat-to-floor heights of 16"-19.25" when seat pan is attached to seat rails · One axle plate accommodates all wheel sizes · 55° of tilt available · Adjustable-depth, adjustable-angle back · Reclining back option available |  |
