Price is not the only factor to consider when buying Varilite Icon Back - Low, the fast delivery from Sportaid is a crowd pleaser!
The Icon™ Back System Low is an ideal lightweight solution for users needing lower trunk support and the full adjustment capability of a larger style of back. The upper body is unimpeded, which allows full range motion of the upper body and trunk, and improves Activities of Daily Living. The shell curves around the sides of the body for mild lateral support, while the accompanying enhanced rollover cushion protects the user and provides maximum comfort.
Built with the user, caregiver, clinician and technician in mind, the Icon™ Low Back System provides the best solution for those who demand fast installation, adjustment versatility, and simple operation. The Icon™ Low Back attaches to the wheelchair uing adjustable VariLock™ hardware, and includes a VARILITE® air-foam floatation cushion for superior comfort.
Operating the system is as easy as opening the caps and sliding the back support out of the hardware. The caps stay in an open position until the back is removed, making it simple to remove the support with one hand or limited dexterity. The hardware guides the back support into position with minimal effort and the caps locks securely into place. Orange safety markings alert the user that a cap is open and not in the locked position.
Icon™ Hardware and Shell
The Icon™ Back System installs on a wheelchair quickly and easily. Only two parts need to be attached to the wheelchair – all other hardware components are pre-installed. All adjustment screws are the same. Only a single tool is needed. Icon™ hardware provides a wide range of seat depth adjustment, without any need for special, extra length parts. Posterior seat depth can be increased or anterior depth decreased by reversing the hardware.
