What is the Overall Purpose of the Rent to Own Program?
We know it can be intimidating to purchase chairs completely online without being able to sit in one first. Plus, we know that not everyone can make it to one of our events to see the chairs in person. As a RETAIL company and not a rental company, we felt that this extra option might benefit disabled people in our communities. This program was designed to provide our customers, as a courtesy, with another way to get one of our chairs. It allows people to try out the chair before they invest full payment for the chair. It will also allow people to have a monthly payment option that doesn’t require full payment upfront in order for them to receive the chair.
The chairs we use for this program are usually from overstock. These are brand new chairs pulled from current inventory and placed in the rental line, ONLY when overstock is available. It is important to note that at certain times of the year, we may not have any overstock available which can limit rental availability. Luckily, we always have chairs available for full payment purchase, that come with a 30-day trial period, so that you won’t have to wait to get a chair.
Whom is the Rent to Own Program Designed for?
- It is ONLY for people who DO NOT have a COLOR preference. We will ship you the next available color. You DO NOT get to pick the color of your rental chair.
- It is also ONLY for people who need a permanent electric wheelchair solution, NOT a temporary one. If you are needing a temporary rental, we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause since we do NOT offer any temporary rentals.
How can I get a Rent to Own Wheelchair?
We release rental chairs on the 1st and 15th of the month when stock is available (if the 1st and the 15th fall on a weekend, the chairs will release on that Monday)
We will run a Soft Credit Check to determine if you will be charged an additional Security Fee or Not. This deposit is NON-Refundable; however, it can be used towards the balance if the chair is paid off early.
What are the Details of the Rent to Own Program?
Our RENT-to-OWN Option is very popular with people wanting a monthly payment option. As you pay your rental payment each month to use the wheelchair in your home, you move closer to the possibility of owning your own chair. With this option, we are giving you the advantage to OWN the rental chair after 9 months of rental payments. At any time during the 9-months, you can call us to get PAYOFF on the wheelchair you are currently renting. Payoff quotes are good until your next scheduled monthly rental payment. We will give you the updated purchase price for the wheelchair you are renting, by deducting all payments you have made to date towards that rental. Any money paid towards the wheelchair you are renting DOES NOT TRANSFER to the purchase of a different chair.
What if the Rent to Own chair Doesn’t Work for Me?
- Put the rental chair back in its original packaging
- Call us to schedule pickup for the monthly rental chair
What are the Costs Associated with the Red to Own Returns?

Soft Credit Check is Required to Rent a Wheelchair
What is a Soft Credit Check?
Our Rental Program is very popular with our customers. Most people have enjoyed the Rental Options to offer payment flexibility, and to help meet their mobility needs. In order to keep the Rental Program benefiting EVERYONE…We will run a Soft Credit Check to look at your credit score. A Soft Credit Check does not effect your credit score, it only helps us determine if you are a high risk renter or not. Depending on your current credit score, a One-Time Security Fee may or may not be applied to your First Month’s Rent. If your current credit score is below 680, then you will not qualify for the Rental Program.
This is NOT a Hard Credit Check it DOES NOT show as an inquiry on your Credit Report!
The Soft Credit Check is completed instantly through this website, BEFORE you rent the wheelchair. You will automatically be emailed the link to rent your wheelchair. Your unique rental link will either have a Zero Security Fee, or a One-Time Security Fee automatically applied, depending on your credit score. This Additional Security Fee is NON-REFUNDABLE when the rental chair is shipped back.
