The Quickie M6 Heavy Duty Wheelchair is a folding bariatric manual wheelchair from Sunrise Medical, rated for riders up to 650 lbs. Modeled after the Quickie 2, it uses a modular, high-strength steel frame with a double-locking crossbrace and stabilizer bar to reduce frame flex, so it feels solid without giving up the convenience of a folding chair. Seat widths from 22" to 30", seat heights as low as 17" for foot propulsion, and a long list of casters, front hangers, armrests, wheels, and colors let it be set up for each rider. 650 lb capacity · folding high-strength steel frame · double-locking crossbrace and stabilizer bar · 22"–30" seat widths · 18"–22" seat depths · 17"–20" seat heights · 16.75"–20.13" back heights · adjustable axle plate · quick-release 24" rear wheels · 5" or 8" casters · swing-away or elevating legrests · removable armrests · folds to 18" wide · about 53 lbs · 24 frame colors.

Wheelchair Measuring Guide
Wheelchair Measurements:
- Hip Width:
Use this to figure seat width if it is the widest point. - Widest Point:
Measure the widest area across the lower extremities if different from the hip width. This may influence seat width or arm style. - Chest Width:
Measure the widest point of the thorax just below the armpit. This measurement may influence system width or back width. - Heel to Knee:
Use this for legrest extensions and seat height. - SRP to Knee (Seat Reference Point to Knee):
This will determine the seat depth. - Elbow to SRP (Elbow to Seat Reference Point):
Measure this width with the arm in a 90-degree angle at the elbow and the shoulder in a neutral position. - Shoulder Height:
This will determine the height and the style of the back panel or the start for a custom back. - Head Height:
This will help determine the proper headrest height.
