DRIVE MEDICAL BARIATRIC SENTRA EC HEAVY-DUTY EXTRA-EXTRA-WIDE WHEELCHAIR 28W X 20D ELR OVERVIEW The Drive Medical Bariatric Sentra EC Extra-Extra-Wide with Elevating Leg Rests Model STD28ECDDA-ELR is the chair we recommend when XXW capacity matters and the user needs their legs elevated whether for lower-extremity swelling, lymphedema, post-surgical recovery hip, knee, or ankle, circulation issues, or DVT prevention. Built to support up to 700 lbs comfortably with a generous 28-inch-wide 20-inch-deep seat, this is a different class of wheelchair from the standard bariatric line engineered with reinforced steel gussets, extra-heavy-duty front forks, and steel spoke wheels that hold up under serious daily use. The elevating leg rests feature adjustable-angle calf pads that raise the legs to a therapeutic position and hold them there, easing pressure and improving venous return during longer periods of seated use. This is the right configuration for users who spend meaningful time in the chair and need lower-extremity support that actually helps. WHO IT'S FOR This chair really shines for Up to 700-lb capacity Extra-extra-wide seating Lower-extremity swelling / edema Post-surgical recovery hip/knee/ankle Circulation issues / DVT prevention Extended daily seated use AT A GLANCE The basicsplus the doorway reality Supports Up To Overall Width Seat Size Chair Weight 700 lbscomfortably 36. 5" wideneeds 38" passages 28" W 20" Dmid XXW deeper seat 69 lbsheavy-duty ELR An honest note about doorways At 36. 5" wide overall, this chair is significantly wider than standard doorways. It needs 38" or wider passages to move through comfortably. Even ADA-compliant 36" doorways can be tight workable but requires careful maneuvering, especially with the ELR footrests deployed. Older homes with 30"32" doorways generally can't accommodate this chair. Call us at 713 695-4939 before ordering we'll walk through your front door, hallways, and bathroom approach together. Bathrooms are often the tightest passage, and getting this right before ordering saves everyone a lot of trouble. Quick note This chair arrives with extra-large padded desk arms and elevating leg rests already installed. The leg rests raise to a therapeutic angle to elevate the calves and support venous return essential when the user has swelling, circulation concerns, or is recovering from lower-body surgery. If the user is active and in/out of the chair frequently and doesn't need leg elevation, the swing-away footrest version STD26ECDDA-SF is easier for transfers and slightly less expensive. EXTRA-WIDE CAPACITY WITH THERAPEUTIC LEG ELEVATION Leg elevation isn't a luxury feature at this weight class it's often medically essential. Users at 450700 lbs frequently deal with lower-extremity edema, poor circulation, lymphedema, or long recoveries from hip, knee, or ankle procedures where keeping the legs elevated is part of the treatment plan. The elevating leg rests on this configuration adjust to therapeutic angles, hold the calves on padded supports, and stay in position no repeatedly propping up feet on ottomans that shift under real weight. The 28-inch-wide 20-inch-deep seat is genuinely spacious wider than any standard bariatric chair, with extra depth that supports your full thigh length so longer seated periods stay comfortable. Underneath the chrome finish, this is serious engineering reinforced steel gussets at every weight-bearing joint, extra-heavy-duty front forks, and steel spoke wheels that take real weight without flexing. Chrome hand rims let you self-propel with confidence when needed. And the dual cross-bar carbon steel frame is backed by Drive Medical's limited lifetime warranty. A great fit for Users at 450700 lbs with lower-extremity swelling, lymphedema, or chronic edema where feet-up positioning is a daily need Patients recovering from hip, knee, or ankle surgery where physician-prescribed leg elevation is part of the healing plan Users with venous insufficiency, DVT risk, or circulation issues who need to keep the legs elevated during longer periods of seated use Anyone spending extended seated time at higher weight where footrest-only support becomes uncomfortable Users of compression garments who benefit from combining elevation with compression therapy Family caregivers of a mostly-seated user who need angle-adjustable calf support that stays where it's set KEY FEATURES What you'll noticein regular use Feature What it really means for you Elevating leg rests with calf pads Angle-adjustable padded calf support Raise the legs to a therapeutic angle and they stay put no reset every few minutes. The padded calf supports distribute weight evenly, essential when someone spends significant time seated at higher body weight. Adjustable angle from near-horizontal down to standard seated position, so the user can dial in what feels right through the day. Supports up to 700 lbs comfortably Reinforced steel gussets at all weight-bearing points Sit down and you'll feel the difference immediately the chair is solid underneath you, no give, no creak. This is engineered XXW capacity, not a regular bariatric chair pushed to its limit. 28" wide 20" deep seat True XXW with deeper-than-standard cushion The seat that gives real breathing room. At 28 inches wide, there's space for a compression garment, prosthesis, or simply comfort for larger users. The 20-inch depth vs. the regular 18" supports your legs all the way to the back of the knee essential when combined with elevating leg rests. Steel spoke rear wheels Maintenance-free, with chrome hand rims Drive uses steel spokes on the XXW models because composite wheels can flex at this capacity. These wheels stay true the chrome hand rims grip well for self-propelling indoors and on sidewalks. Extra-heavy-duty front forks & casters Flat-free 8" front wheels, 2-position adjustment The forks are reinforced beyond the standard bariatric chair they have to be at this weight class. Flat-free casters mean you never patch a tire or stop for air. Roll smooth, indoors or out. Extra-large padded desk arms Detachable, generously sized Larger and more padded than the arms on a regular bariatric chair built for users who'll actually rest their forearms on them all day. Pop them off completely for clean side transfers. Triple-coated chrome frame Carbon steel with chip-proof finish Looks dignified, stays that way. The chrome doesn't chip, doesn't fade, doesn't go yellow with age even after years of regular use. The chair belongs in your home, not in a clinic. Reinforced nylon upholstery Heavy-gauge, easy to wipe clean The nylon is more durable than vinyl at this weight class it doesn't stretch, sag, or wear through. Cleans in seconds with a wipe, which matters whether you're a daily caregiver or a family member helping out part-time. Heavy-duty push-to-lock brakes Firm, reliable one-hand operation The brakes hold absolutely firm at 700-lb capacity. That confidence shows up every time you transfer the chair stays exactly where you put it, no creep, no wobble. Folds to 14" for transport Fits paratransit vans, family SUVs, accessible vehicles The chair folds slim enough to load into a paratransit van, an accessible vehicle, or an SUV cargo bay.

The Aerofly starts at 13 — roughly a bowling ball, and light enough to swing into a trunk with one hand. That number matters more than anything else about a manual chair, because the person lifting it four times a day is usually a spouse with their own shoulder or back trouble, and the chair that is too heavy to load is the chair that stays in the hallway while the trip gets made without it. Two colors, which matters more than it sounds when someone is being handed a piece of medical equipment they did not want.- From 13 lb
- Light enough to lift one-handed
- About a third of a standard chair

These are different chairs from the one on this page.Call and tell us who will be lifting it, how often, and into what — a trunk lip and a back seat are different problems, and the answer changes which chair we point you at. Tell us their weight too, because ultra-light frames have lower capacities than standard ones and that is the limit people find out about late.

Built to support up to 700 lbs comfortably with a generous 28-inch-wide × 20-inch-deep seat, this is a different class of wheelchair from the standard bariatric line — engineered with reinforced steel gussets, extra-heavy-duty front forks, and steel spoke wheels that hold up under serious daily use.

(heavy-duty + ELR)📏 An honest note about doorways: At 36.5" wide overall, this chair is significantly wider than standard doorways. It needs 38" or wider passages to move through comfortably. Even ADA-compliant 36" doorways can be tight — workable but requires careful maneuvering, especially with the ELR footrests deployed.

Leg elevation isn't a luxury feature at this weight class — it's often medically essential. Users at 450–700 lbs frequently deal with lower-extremity edema, poor circulation, lymphedema, or long recoveries from hip, knee, or ankle procedures where keeping the legs elevated is part of the treatment plan. The elevating leg rests on this configuration adjust to therapeutic angles, hold the calves on padded supports, and stay in position — no repeatedly propping up feet on ottomans that shift under real weight. The 28-inch-wide × 20-inch-deep seat is genuinely spacious — wider than any standard bariatric chair, with extra depth that supports your full thigh length so longer seated periods stay comfortable. Underneath the chrome finish, this is serious engineering: reinforced steel gussets at every weight-bearing joint, extra-heavy-duty front forks, and steel spoke wheels that take real weight without flexing. Chrome hand rims let you self-propel with confidence when needed. And the dual cross-bar carbon steel frame is backed by Drive Medical's limited lifetime warranty.
A great fit for:- Users at 450–700 lbs with lower-extremity swelling, lymphedema, or chronic edema where feet-up positioning is a daily need
- Patients recovering from hip, knee, or ankle surgery where physician-prescribed leg elevation is part of the healing plan
- Users with venous insufficiency, DVT risk, or circulation issues who need to keep the legs elevated during longer periods of seated use
- Anyone spending extended seated time at higher weight where footrest-only support becomes uncomfortable
- Users of compression garments who benefit from combining elevation with compression therapy
- Family caregivers of a mostly-seated user who need angle-adjustable calf support that stays where it's set

(fit • transfers • travel • coverage)Should I choose ELR (this version) or SF (swing-away footrests)?A simple way to decide: does the user need to keep their legs elevated during the day (for swelling, lymphedema, post-surgery, or circulation), or are they actively in and out of the chair throughout the day? If it's the first, ELR (this version) is the right pick — the leg rests hold the legs at a therapeutic angle and stay put. If it's the second, choose the STD26ECDDA-SF (swing-away footrests) version instead — it's easier for transfers, slightly less expensive, and typically easier to get approved by insurance. If you're not sure, call us at (713) 695-4939 and walk us through a typical day.Will this chair work with paratransit or accessible vehicles?Sometimes — the 28" ELR configuration is at the outer edge of what many paratransit and accessible vehicles can accommodate. Most paratransit lifts and ramps handle folding wheelchairs up to about 32–34" wide on the deck, and this chair is 36.5" overall — wider than most deck limits. Always call your paratransit provider with the chair's dimensions before scheduling, and confirm the vehicle can accommodate the chair (some larger accessible vans and reduced-floor conversions can). The elevating leg rests can be detached completely when loading, which reduces the chair's footprint significantly. If frequent paratransit use is a daily need and 26" seat width is enough, the 26" SF version (STD26ECDDA-SF, product #10040043) is much more likely to fit standard paratransit vehicles.How do the elevating leg rests work at this weight class?Each leg rest has an adjustable angle lever that lets you raise the calf and foot from a standard seated position (footrest down) up to near-horizontal (leg fully elevated). The padded calf supports distribute the leg's weight across a wider surface than a standard footrest — important at the XXW class where a narrow footplate would concentrate pressure. The heavy-duty aluminum footplates are larger and crack-proof, designed to handle higher weight loads. Both leg rests can be detached completely for transfers or transport.Can I really self-propel a chair at 700-lb capacity?Yes — self-propulsion works at this capacity. The chrome hand rims grip well even with damp or cold hands, the steel spoke rear wheels stay true under load (composite wheels can flex), and the sealed precision bearings roll smooth without resistance. Keep in mind: elevated leg rests add length to the chair, so tight turns and doorway approaches take more space than they do with swing-away footrests. On level ground and in open rooms, self-propulsion is comfortable. For longer outdoor distances or hilly terrain, a power wheelchair or scooter might be a better choice — call us if you'd like to talk through options.Will the 28" fit through my doorways?The 28" model is 36.5" wide overall — wider than most standard doorways. Even ADA-compliant 36" doorways will be tight, especially with the ELR footrests deployed. This chair really needs 38" or wider passages to move through comfortably. Older homes with 30"–32" doorways generally can't accommodate this chair, and bathrooms are almost always the tightest passage (bathroom doors as narrow as 28" are common in older construction). If your doorways are 36" or narrower, the 26" version (34.5" overall) may be a better fit — give up 2 inches of seat width in exchange for much easier home navigation. Before ordering, call us at (713) 695-4939 and we'll measure your home together, room by room.How is this different from the regular bariatric Sentra EC?They're separate product lines. The regular Sentra EC tops out at 24" wide with 450-lb capacity and 18" seat depth — a chair built around the bariatric category. The Sentra EC XXW line (which this 28" model is part of) starts at 26" wide and goes up to 30", all with 700-lb capacity and 20" seat depth — plus internal reinforcements you can't see but can definitely feel: steel gussets at every weight-bearing point, extra-heavy-duty front forks, steel spoke wheels, and reinforced nylon upholstery. Different engineering for a different weight class.How does this chair travel for appointments and outings?Folded width is 14", which fits in most SUV cargo bays and larger accessible vehicles — though the 28" chair is at the outer edge of what many paratransit vans can accommodate on the deck. The chair weighs about 69 lbs with elevating leg rests (about 5 lbs more than the SF equivalent), so two-person loading is important for vehicles without a lift or ramp. Always remove the leg rests first for travel — they pop off in seconds, reduce the chair's footprint significantly, and make lifting far more manageable. For frequent travel, an accessible vehicle is often more practical than repeated lifting.How well does it handle outdoor surfaces?The steel spoke wheels and 8" flat-free front casters handle sidewalks, smooth pavement, indoor-outdoor carpet, tile, and short stretches of asphalt well. Grass and gravel are harder — manageable for short distances with assistance, but not the chair's ideal terrain. If outdoor mobility on grass, dirt, or rough surfaces is a daily need, give us a call and we'll discuss power chair or all-terrain options.Could insurance cover this chair?The Sentra EC XXW carries HCPCS code K0007 (heavy-duty wheelchair). Medicare, Medicaid, and many private insurers cover this category with a doctor's prescription documenting medical necessity. At this capacity level, insurers typically require documentation of body weight, the medical condition justifying extra-extra-wide capacity (severe obesity, lymphedema, post-bariatric surgery, etc.), and sometimes a face-to-face evaluation. The ELR version (this one) requires additional documentation under HCPCS code E0990 (elevating leg rests) — typically a doctor's note explaining why leg elevation is medically necessary (edema, DVT prevention, post-surgical recovery, circulation issues, lymphedema, etc.). The approval process is more involved than the SF version, but with proper documentation it's covered by most plans. Call us at (713) 695-4939 and we'll talk through what your specific plan asks for.How long will this chair hold up?Many of our customers are five to seven years into daily use without major issues — the reinforced gussets, steel spoke wheels, sealed bearings, flat-free tires, and triple-coated chrome all contribute. Drive Medical's Limited Lifetime warranty on the frame reflects that build quality. Wear components like upholstery and hand rims may need eventual replacement, but the structural frame is designed to outlast that.Ready to talk through the details?

FAQ & Resources28" Bariatric Sentra EC Heavy-Duty Extra-Extra-Wide Wheelchair with Detachable Desk Arms & Elevating Leg Restspurchase referenceAbout this product — Quick answers
FAQsCommon questions before ordering
(fit • transfers • travel • coverage)Should I choose ELR (this version) or SF (swing-away footrests)?A simple way to decide: does the user need to keep their legs elevated during the day (for swelling, lymphedema, post-surgery, or circulation), or are they actively in and out of the chair throughout the day? If it's the first, ELR (this version) is the right pick — the leg rests hold the legs at a therapeutic angle and stay put. If it's the second, choose the STD26ECDDA-SF (swing-away footrests) version instead — it's easier for transfers, slightly less expensive, and typically easier to get approved by insurance. If you're not sure, call us at (713) 695-4939 and walk us through a typical day.Will this chair work with paratransit or accessible vehicles?Sometimes — the 28" ELR configuration is at the outer edge of what many paratransit and accessible vehicles can accommodate. Most paratransit lifts and ramps handle folding wheelchairs up to about 32–34" wide on the deck, and this chair is 36.5" overall — wider than most deck limits. Always call your paratransit provider with the chair's dimensions before scheduling, and confirm the vehicle can accommodate the chair (some larger accessible vans and reduced-floor conversions can). The elevating leg rests can be detached completely when loading, which reduces the chair's footprint significantly. If frequent paratransit use is a daily need and 26" seat width is enough, the 26" SF version (STD26ECDDA-SF, product #10040043) is much more likely to fit standard paratransit vehicles.How do the elevating leg rests work at this weight class?Each leg rest has an adjustable angle lever that lets you raise the calf and foot from a standard seated position (footrest down) up to near-horizontal (leg fully elevated). The padded calf supports distribute the leg's weight across a wider surface than a standard footrest — important at the XXW class where a narrow footplate would concentrate pressure. The heavy-duty aluminum footplates are larger and crack-proof, designed to handle higher weight loads. Both leg rests can be detached completely for transfers or transport.Can I really self-propel a chair at 700-lb capacity?Yes — self-propulsion works at this capacity. The chrome hand rims grip well even with damp or cold hands, the steel spoke rear wheels stay true under load (composite wheels can flex), and the sealed precision bearings roll smooth without resistance. Keep in mind: elevated leg rests add length to the chair, so tight turns and doorway approaches take more space than they do with swing-away footrests. On level ground and in open rooms, self-propulsion is comfortable. For longer outdoor distances or hilly terrain, a power wheelchair or scooter might be a better choice — call us if you'd like to talk through options.Will the 28" fit through my doorways?The 28" model is 36.5" wide overall — wider than most standard doorways. Even ADA-compliant 36" doorways will be tight, especially with the ELR footrests deployed. This chair really needs 38" or wider passages to move through comfortably. Older homes with 30"–32" doorways generally can't accommodate this chair, and bathrooms are almost always the tightest passage (bathroom doors as narrow as 28" are common in older construction).
