BundleBean – Wheelchair Cosy

Wheelchair Description:
Funky waterproof wheelchair cover with fleece lining and carry case. To use it, all you need to do is place the elasticated bottom around your footplates and pull it up towards your waist. You then can attach it around your waist using the velcro and extra velcro toggles are available on the largest area if needed.

Personal Opinion:
These waterproof wheelchair covers come in a range of funky designs that then fasten to your wheelchair using a range of toggles and elasticated sections to the footplates, leg rests and back of your wheelchair. Because it is a blanket type design, it is very easy to get in and out of, unlike other ones on the market which are more like sleeping bags.

The cosy has a large central pocket to keep your hands warm and/or items safe, and the bag it comes in easily attaches to the handle of your wheelchair for travel. The best thing about the Bundlebean is the designs, my particular favourite is the Flamingo, as it always looks fashionable and many people compliment it when I’m out.

I also love the different designs and I think there is something to suit everyone. The only drawback is that in winter, even though it is fleece-lined, you can still get a bit cold as the wind can go under the leg rests. It’s easy to fit an extra blanket underneath but it’s worth noting that in extra cold weather you might need another layer!
