Description
The Med-Mizer FlexTilt Tilt-in-Space Chair is a caregiver-pushed positioning chair that both tilts and reclines. It's built for residents who spend long hours seated. The seat tilts up to 25° and the back reclines up to 30°, and built-in handles and controls let the caregiver set any position in between. A recline foot section raises the legs, and a built-in length extender adjusts the seat depth from 16.5" to 18". The V-Back design keeps the rider centered and supported, and pressure relief strapping flexes to the body's contour. Pivoting arms swing out of the way for transfers, and steering casters make the chair easier to maneuver. The 11–16 gauge steel frame holds riders up to 350 lbs in 16", 20", or 24" seats, and transit-ready versions are available. 350 lb capacity · gauge steel frame (11–16 ga) · 25° tilt · 30° recline · seat widths 16", 20", 24" · seat depth 16.5"–18" · seat height 19.5"–21.5" · 32" back · V-Back design · pressure relief strapping · recline foot section · pivoting arms · built-in length extender · 5" steering casters · transit versions available · 3-year mechanical frame warranty · 1-year components.

What Defines This Tilt-in-Space Chair
Tilt and Recline
Up to 25° of tilt and 30° of back recline.
Recline Foot Section
A handle raises the leg section for support.
V-Back Design
Keeps the rider centered and supported.
Pressure Relief Strapping
Flexes to the rider's contour for comfort.
Pivoting Arms
Swing out of the way for easier transfers.
Adjustable Seat Depth
A built-in extender sets 16.5" to 18".
Tilt or recline? Tilt shifts the rider's weight back without changing their hip angle, which helps with pressure relief and posture. Recline opens the hip angle for rest. The FlexTilt does both. Questions? 1-866-218-0902.
