Around KL. No electric.

Carousell.

FB marketplace or carousell.

Can contact tzu chi kepong to borrow, free of charge but depends on availability. Return when not needed in the future.

Big Pharmacy. Go to their shop at SS2, its a two story shop. They have a lot of options there.

Why buy used when u can get a brand new one in any pharmacy. Why need to cheapen out? Unless it's for a fracture of a young patient then u can rent

because it's steel made, it can be reused...same as baby stroller and stuff
if everybody kept on buying brand new, where are people storing or throwing all of these wheel chair?

Got several pharmacies also provide rental services if you are keen to consider on that as well

They donate to the old folks home to the anak yatim.

only some of them are being donated...if they feel generous
most people prefer to resell it instead...not everybody is rich rich
wheel chair brand new itself is also not cheap to begin with

Wheel chair got a few type

Full size like the hospital one, but a bit different to put in the car.
Compact one much easier for the car boot. But not so comfy.

Of course there are also that come with the headrest, and other innovative ideas.

Bro, get a new one. And then donate it later when you don't need it any more.

Any tips on what to look for? What to avoid?

Better just buy , rental only make sense if u hit yr head and got PhD .

Go check out Salvation Army thrift shop.
depend on your luck though but most probably available there.

in mudah like here n here

I don't know about used ones but if really urgent need one, you can look for some pharmacy stores, but not all pharmacy stores sell it. Ranging around 150~400+ depending on your need and quality.

If you don't want to use it anymore, I suggests you donate it to HKL. But they only open door for these equipment donation during office hours, and don't come during Friday lunch & praying time, if not you gonna wait until 3pm++

TS, try have a look at Alpro Pharma. They offer installment service too.

(Disregarding powered wheelchair for the moment as per your first post.) Start by deciding if you want self propelled (the rear wheel is large) or you want pushed wheelchair (the rear wheel is small, must have someone push to move) Then decide on further features like extra large, lightweight, can use over the toilet, can recline or not, etc

Is it for your dad TS?

Yes. He is getting better these days. He can eat normally able to take a couple of steps at a time. But still too weak to walk. I plan to get a wheelchair so I can bring him out for breakfast, garden, instead of on the bed most of the time.
His short term memory still fuzzy at times, but he can recognize everyone now. Even remember to ask me to buy toto for him. He can also comprehend TV and newspaper now compared to a few months ago.

Oh that's nice to hear, I kinda remember you talking about medical bed at home or something last time after surgery. Getting better is all around good news 👍.

Thanks. Tzu chi loan us a medical bed. Even help to bring it up to my house.
Just bought a basic wheelchair at RM270 plus. The other one is 10kg lighter, got hand break and cushion seat, but its RM500 plus almost 600...

Facebook got ppl selling. Donate out when no use anymore. In Penang there is a guy giving out for free. The condition is to return back after no longer use and ask ppl to donate if they have wheelchair no longer use so he can continue help other's

Finally my father strong enough to go out yum cha.
This few days he improve a lot more. Can walk downstairs to the wheelchair.
