What is the difference between a sit to stand standing frame like the Evolv, and a standing wheelchair?
There are 3 main differences between a standing frame and a standing wheelchair. Price – Standing frames range from $2000-$6000, standing wheelchairs can be $20,000 or more. Function – Standing frames can provide more features since they focus on being a standing device only, but a standing wheelchair may be useful in a highly functional setting, such as the workplace to move from sitting to standing and around the office quickly. Upright versus Supine Positioning – Typically the ultimate goal of a standing frame is a vertical upright position, where the standing wheelchair position is a slightly supine position.
