Description
Excel is Medline’s familiar folding wheelchair. Clinics and families specify it because the name is easy to reorder and the chair does the ordinary jobs: kitchen, clinic visit, family car. Like the other chairs in this group, it is a standard frame, not a made-to-measure ultralight.
Medline sells several Excel codes, including wider seats. We do not guess which code from the word Excel alone. The request should say the seat width and whether the rider self-propels or is pushed.

We confirm the current manufacturer specification for the size you need before the order is placed. A different seat width, wheel, or option changes the weight.
A wider seat is not the same thing as a higher weight capacity. We check both.
A wheelchair has to match the person. Weight capacity includes the rider and anything carried on the chair. Complex rehab chairs should be sized with an occupational therapist or seating clinician. Figures on this page come from the manufacturer’s published materials and can change. The order form for your configuration is the one we follow.
Configured chairs are built after you approve the quote. Once a manufacturer has started a made-to-measure frame, that build usually cannot be cancelled. Boxed retail chairs are different, and we say so on the quote.
