What Is the QUICKIE Range?

The QUICKIE range represents Sunrise Medical’s premium line of powered wheelchairs engineered to empower mobility with high performance, style, and adaptability. Whether you're navigating tight indoor spaces or venturing outdoors, QUICKIE models deliver independence through maneuverability, advanced drive systems, and customizable seating.

Key Features Across the QUICKIE Line

Drive Bases Tailored to Terrain & Space

Rear-Wheel Drive: Offers strength and stability on uneven surfaces and outdoor terrain, with intuitive handling.
Front-Wheel Drive: Better for tight corners and indoor navigation; brings your feet closer to obstacles and surfaces.
Mid-Wheel Drive: Maximum indoor agility thanks to tight turning radius; features advanced suspension for a smooth ride outdoors.

Seating & Control Systems

Models integrate with seating systems like SEDEO LITE, SEDEO PRO, SEDEO PRO ADVANCED, and even standing seating systems—offering tailored clinical support, comfort, and smart positioning.
Control technology such as R-NET, VR2, and even gyro stabilization (Gyro Control / SureTrac) ensures precision and ease of use.

“Smart” Technologies for Real-World Use

SMART Base Technology: A tested balance of geometry—size vs. stability—to yield compact yet reliable indoor/outdoor performance.
Suspension Systems: SpiderTrac™ (and enhanced SpiderTrac 2.0) deliver smooth travel across curbs and rough surfaces.
Kerb Climbers & Terrain Handling: Many models conquer kerbs up to 100 mm and gradients of 6–10°, extending practical usability.
