Over the years, the articles I’ve published about different types of wheelchairs have been among the most widely read. It seems we have a large audience searching for wheelchairs, and wisely, doing their research at Crutchesguide.com before they invest.

The KD Smart Chair, made by KD Healthcare, is an electric powered wheelchair designed to be as convenient to use and travel with as a foldable manual wheelchair.
