Typically, the cost of a buy electric wheelchairs can range anywhere from around $1,000 to $15,000. This depends on the brand, quality, size, features, and requirements. However, the average electric wheelchair for the regular user can be expected to be priced at around $2000 to $3000. Perhaps the most notable difference between electric scooters and electric wheelchairs is in the controls. Power chairs are steered with a joystick, allowing for more control and requiring little arm or hand strength. Power chairs allow steering with just a person's fingertips. Power wheelchairs are built to be long-lasting and durable. Their expiration date depends on the usage and treatment they regularly endure. A well cared for power wheelchair can last up to five years or more with regular maintenance and repairs.
