Quantum Kozmo

Power Base

The Kozmo uses the same base as Pride’s Go Chair, a highly compact rear-wheel drive chair that can easily manoeuvre around confined spaces indoors with a turning circle of just 64.5 cm. This small footprint also makes the Kozmo easy to store when not in use, taking up only a small amount of space. As with the Go Chair, the Kozmo is simple to dismantle into four pieces, with no tools required, allowing it to be transported in the back of a car. The 18 Ah battery box can be removed should you wish to charge it separate from the wheelchair, and provides enough power for everyday use.

We would not recommend the Kozmo for significant outdoor use, as it has small wheels, no suspension and lacks the power and ground clearance to cope with steep slopes. However, it can handle some limited use outdoors on flat paved surfaces – for example around a school campus, or if taken to a shopping centre.

Please note that the Kozmo is not crash tested, so should not be used for occupied transport in a vehicle – the wheelchair user should use one of the regular car seats instead.

Seating

The highlight of the Kozmo is its adjustable seating, which will be custom build to your size and needs. Seat widths and depths of 12 – 18 inches are available, and the seat height is adjustable too. This allows the seating to fit to you, rather than having a basic “one size fits all” seat that most indoor powerchairs have. While the Kozmo has just one backrest and seat cushion available as standard (both deeply padded and comfortable), the seat pan and backrest poles allow third-party backrests and cushions to be attached should you require more clinical seating or have an existing cushion of your own to use. A range of armrests, legrests (including both centre-mount footplates, separate swing-away legrests, and elevating leg rests), headrests and lateral supports can be supplied with the Kozmo to provide the support you require.
