A collapsible wheel chair with a commode: Challenging the limits

Last week, I wanted to take my grandparents out to visit the woods for their 50th anniversary but swore that I would never do that again. Now, I am not an unruly grand daughter but it was a momentous task to carry two wheel chairs, the old lovers and my doggie Danny together on my bumping old vagon.
Thanks to Julie Clyde, I will be able to take my pals out in near future. Ms. Clyde truly deserves our applaud for having designed Freemode, a chair that helps people with disabilities gain more convenience.
One of the best features of the chair is that it is made up of fibre glass and therefore can be taken easily to washroom and can be used as a bathing chair as well as a commode. Since it is easily foldable, it is ideal for personal use as well as hospitals/airports. It has quick release pins which means that you can pack it in a matter of few seconds.

It is sturdy and promises to last a long time. Ms. Clyde has researched the viability of designing such chair by talking to local fibreglass artists. The chair comes in ivory white color with gloss finish and a sand yellow pack case that makes it truly durable.
I think I might not be that late to buy it as an anniversary gift for my dear granny and grand pa!
