Ottobock Avantgarde 4 DS / DV Folding Wheelchair

Contact us for a scripting appointment or a quote with an assistive technology professional.

The Avantgarde 4 DS and DV are lightweight folding active wheelchairs. Each chair is built to the user's measurements and needs, so it is prescribed after an assessment and priced by quote rather than sold off the shelf.

Also available in ready-to-ship stocked sizes (seat width 40, 46 or 50 cm). Ask us.

How it works

• Book a trial and scripting appointment at our Prestons showroom, or we can come to you at home, in hospital or in residential care.
• An assistive technology professional works with you and your therapist on the prescription and the right configuration.
• We provide a written quote to suit your funding: NDIS, iCare, DVA, aged care (Support at Home) or private purchase.

The DS and DV share the same seat sizes and adjustment ranges. They differ in the front frame and weight.

• Avantgarde 4 DV (variable): the all-rounder. Height-adjustable armrest, and the leg supports fold in so you can get close to furniture, the barbecue or the bath. Leg supports remove with a lever, which also suits people after a stroke.
• Avantgarde 4 DS (sporty): a shorter, more active setup with a 70° or 80° front frame. From 8.7kg.
