The Coaster Scout is Convaid’s newest addition to their fixed seat tilt family of special needs push chairs. The difference is, on the Coaster Scout the angle of the seat can be set at 10, 20, or 30 degrees for customized positioning support and comfort. This adjustment is made with tools and helps meet the user’s unique or changing needs. The Coaster Scout also comes with an adjustable reclining back with 4 different fixed recline angles. This adjustment is also made with tools. These features are standard on this lightweight, robust, compact, clamshell folding frame whose durability is as you have come to expect from Convaid.

The Coaster Scout offers up to 5 in. of seat depth growth in all four frame sizes with 12 in., 14 in., 16 in., and 18 in. seat widths. It accommodates users with mild to moderate postural support needs weighing up to 170 lbs. (77 kg.). Standard Convaid upholstery on the Coaster Scout is offered in a variety of colors. The two-step clamshell folding design makes getting this lightweight stroller frame packed into the trunk of the car a breeze. The Coaster Scout is easily unfolded in one intuitive motion. The Coaster Scout is the perfect family-friendly chair to get everyone out for an adventure.

In Required Step 1, you will choose the size and model of your Coaster Scout. The Coaster Scout now offers an All-Terrain Option for navigating rugged terrain.

Headrest Extension- extends back height to provide head support for taller individuals and is required if the Transit version is chosen. In Required Step 5, you will be given the opportunity to select Trunk and Pelvic Supports. The Coaster Scout comes standard with a 2-Point Positioning Belt unless you have chosen the Transit Model.

H-Harness- provides anterior trunk support to maintain upper body position and helps limit fatigue. Full Torso Vest- Select this for even more trunk support. It helps the user maintain correct midline upper body position, prevents slumping and assists with shoulder retraction (keeping the shoulders back). The user is kept comfortable and securely in place. The vest is easily adjusted and detached. In Required Step 6, you will choose Foot Supports.
