Why Do I Need a Wheelchair Tray?
Wheelchair trays are not just for meals – they can provide a level of convenience and independence that cannot be achieved by using a fixed surface, like an independent table. In addition to eating and drinking, these sturdy wheelchair trays aid your ability to read, write, use mobile devices and e-readers as well as providing support for your arms, wrists and hands. Wheelchair trays are the most practical accessory for your wheelchair.
Which Wheelchair Tray is Right for Me?
Wheelchair trays provide many different levels of assistance - mobility and ease upon entry and exit are the most important factor for some people – others require wheelchair trays that allow for toggles, right or left flip-up access, maximized workspace, cut-outs or rims.
● Full coverage trays allow for dining as well as providing the maximum space for working, writing, drawing and activities.
● Expandable full coverage trays provide an expansive work space and more elbow room. These versatile trays feature collapsible sides and will fit through doorways and tight spaces without removal of the tray.
● Half-trays can be attached on the right or the left side of your wheelchair and effortlessly flip out of the way for easy transfer. Half trays come in a variety of styles and materials, including vinyl, non-slip, latex-free, lightweight and contoured trays.
● Soft trays are available in half and full sizes and provide an extra level of comfort with soft padding and upper extremity support for your limbs.
● Lift away trays are soft trays; these handy trays provide a nonrestrictive, comfortable surface for your arms and elbows.
● Adjustable trays can be attached from the left or right side of your wheelchair and angled for comfort and ease of use.

Many of our wheelchair trays feature non-slip gripping pads, utensil slots and cup holders for your convenience.
