FRESNO, Calif., October 20, 2020 – In striving to meet the needs of more clients, Sunrise Medical is excited to introduce three upgrades to its QUICKIE power portfolio:

  • C-Me – Elevate and Drive functionality on both the Q500 M and Q400 M.
  • Tilt and Elevate combination – Customers no longer have to choose tilt only or elevate only.
  • The SEDEO LITE Seat – One of the lightest seating systems to be introduced in North America. The Lite seat includes traditional back canes to mount JAY® and other off-the-shelf aftermarket backs at a fraction of the weight of other seating systems.

With C-Me, clients can achieve the independence they are looking for. Drive up to 3 MPH while elevated up to 12" without needing to stop while transitioning. Highly popular on the Q700 M, and now also available on the Q500 M and the Q400 M, clients will never have to compromise dependability for accessibility again. And thanks to a suspension that doesn't lock out when you drive with C-Me, the ride is smooth and comfortable from start to finish.

The new SEDEO LITE seating system is an adjustable seat frame giving you a simple, sleek look. As one of the lightest seating systems in the market, the Q500 M equipped with SEDEO LITE seating has a starting weight of 266 lbs., making it a great solution for many hitch-mounted lifts. The traditional back canes are width-adjustable from 15” to 20” and easily fit JAY backs and most aftermarket back supports.

“We are excited to expand our popular features and options on the line of QUICKIE power wheelchairs with the addition of C-Me and SEDEO LITE on the Q500 M,” said Jeff Rogers, Director of Power Product Management. “C-Me has been a highly demanded feature on other QUICKIE power wheelchair models and it only made sense to expand the feature to a smaller wheel base. With the addition of the SEDEO LITE, we have a full line of seating frame options from mild to complex clinical needs.”
