The Special Tomato MPS Push Chair Kit includes the Multi-Positioning Seat and the Convaid Transportable Push Chair Base. The Transportable Push Chair is designed to fit both the Small and Large sizes of the Special Tomato Multi-Positioning Seat. The Umbrella-Style Folding Transportable Push Chair is manufactured for Special Tomato by Convaid, and is designed for use with standard tie-down systems for bus or van transport. Safety features meet ANSI/RESNA WC/19 regulations. Children travel comfortably and safely back and forth to school.
The soft, lightweight, and durable modular seating surface cushions allow for individualized adjustment. Seating surface modules are soft for comfort, but are supported by the seat shell to maintain position. Cushions are made from a new latex-free material that is not only soft, but is tough and durable to withstand deflating, cracking, and is impermeable to fluids.
Here's what people are saying:
"I THOUGHT THE CUSHIONS WERE HARD PLASTIC UNTIL I TOUCHED THEM! THEY'RE SO SOFT!"
The Special Tomato Multi-Positioning Seat features a size choice of a contoured Seat Cushion complete with the Hip-Flex™ adjustment that pivots 30 degrees to adjust the seat-to-back angle for proper alignment of your child's pelvis. The Tray is also angle adjustable.
Please Note: The Blue Color Shown above is no longer available as of March 2009!
Now you have your choice between two height adjustable and contoured Head Supports. If your child needs more lateral support, the Lateral Head Support is a great option to try!
The Special Tomato Multi-Positioning Seat offers years of growth for your child. This unique design allows you to make simple adjustments to the Head & Back Cushions as your child grows. In addition, there are two Seat Cushion sizes allowing you to increase the seat width and depth for an average of 7 years of growth, without having to buy a complete new seating system after 3 or 4 years.
The Seat Cushions use hook and loop and our track system for easy adjustment. The Hip-Flex™ adjustment provides a range of positions between 15 degrees of hip flexion and 15 degrees of hip extension without reclining the seat back. This system allows true seat back angle adjustments while maintaining upper body alignment by changing the orientation of your child's pelvis.
Built-in Attachment Straps can be used to secure the Special Tomato Multi-Positioning Seat to most standard chairs found in the car, home, community, or school. This makes it perfect for peer interaction, sitting outside on the deck, or dinner at your favorite neighborhood restaurant.
