• Adds electric adjustment of both tilt and recline, making posture changes much easier (for the user or caregiver) with minimal effort.

• The electric unit weighs only about 3.5 kg, so relatively small weight penalty for the extra function; the chair remains manageable.

• Discreet design of the electric system helps maintain ease of operation — not bulky or overly obtrusive.

• Equipped with a hand control that has simple, clear symbols; the control is magnetic and can be placed where it’s most convenient.

• Battery / charger setup is easily accessible, making charging more practical.

• Fastest Rebalance: The intuitive wheel adjustment system offers 44 positions, allowing for quick and easy rebalancing to suit individual user needs. etac.com

• Ability Based Seating™: The updated 3A back support system provides quick and easy adjustments in angle, height, and lumbar support, with audible feedback to ensure optimal posture and comfort. etac.com

• Adjustable Seat Heights: The Cross 6 offers a 32–56.5 cm seat-to-ground height range in one frame, accommodating various user requirements and ensuring ergonomic positioning. etac.com

• Rigidity Over Time: Designed with a durable cross-folding frame, the Cross 6 maintains its rigidity and stability, ensuring consistent performance throughout its lifespan. etac.com

• Easy-to-Use Accessories: Features such as height-adjustable push handles and anti-tippers that cover a 24 cm seat height variation are quick and easy to adjust, enhancing user and caregiver convenience.

• Extra-Low Seat Height: Achieves a seat height of 34 cm with 20″ rear wheels in the upper position, facilitating easier transfers and improved posture for users with limited mobility.
• Adjustable Back Support: Features the 3A back support, which is adjustable in angle, height, and contour, providing optimal trunk support and stability.
• Durable Cross-Folding Frame: Equipped with a double cross brace, the Cross 5XL combines the stability of a rigid frame with the convenience of a folding design, ensuring long-term durability and excellent propulsion properties.
• Wide Range of Adjustments: Offers 36 + 2 rear wheel positions, allowing for precise adjustments to seat height and balance, accommodating various user needs and preferences.
• High Weight Capacity: Supports a maximum user weight of 160 kg, making it suitable for a diverse range of users requiring robust and reliable mobility solutions.

Clients who have mild-to-moderate stability/postural challenges, who are used to foam, who need more control, for instance in transfers or when sitting in moving chairs etc.

Single air chamber + additional foam baffles (soft foam cylinders) inside the air cells.

Similar pressure redistribution as Standard Air, but foam baffles dampen (slow) air movement so less “sloshing”, more stability while still preserving redistribution.

Medium level of stability: foam baffles reduce unwanted cell movement, help reduce “sloshing” / instability when the user moves. Better for those who are used to foam and want more control.

Adjustable in air level; plus foam internal structure means “feel” can be more controlled. Some additional considerations in the setup to get it right.

Foam helps reduce air cell shifts, so more confidence in transfers/movement. Better for clients who want more feedback and less movement, but still want the pressure relief of an air cushion.

Clients who are high risk of pressure injuries but with stable posture, minimal asymmetry, no need for offloading specific areas or shaping. Also where simplicity is important.

Single air chamber vertical air cell cushion. Interconnected cells.

Good immersion; pressure redistributes via free movement of air as user shifts weight. Best for users who just need pressure relief without extra stability needs.

Lowest of the three in terms of stability beyond what air‐cells inherently provide. There’s free air flow among all the cells, so movement is relatively unrestricted. Good for users with stable posture who don’t need extra support.

Adjustable air level via a single valve; one chamber, so simpler to manage.

Light, simple feel (since no foam inserts or locking mechanisms). Possibly more “give” when moving. Might feel less stable under dynamic conditions (leaning, transfer, push from behind, etc.). Good if the client doesn’t have mobility/posture challenges.
