Why People Choose the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
📏
24" or 26" Seat Width
Two wide-seat options to comfortably fit larger riders — no squeezing, no pinching.
💪
True 600 lb Capacity
Reinforced four-post bariatric frame — built to handle full daily use without fatigue or flex.
🛣️
32 Mile Driving Range
Two 75Ah AGM batteries give you all-day power. Errands, appointments, and dinner — no recharge stops.
⛰️
Climbs 10° Ramps
Super-powered in-line motors take on home ramps, parking lot grades, and hills with ease.
🎯
Tight 31.5" Turning
Surprisingly maneuverable for its size — fits through doorways, hallways, and tight indoor spaces.
🛞
Smooth 12" Wheels
Big pneumatic tires soak up bumps, cracks, and uneven sidewalks for a smoother ride.
Seat Width Options on the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
A standard power chair has a 16"–20" seat. The Atlantis goes much wider — because real comfort for bariatric riders starts with real space.
MOST POPULAR
24" wide
Best for hip measurements up to 22". Generous space without being too big to maneuver indoors.
EXTRA-WIDE
26" wide
Best for hip measurements 22"–24", or when you want maximum hip room and side comfort.

Weight Capacity of the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
The Atlantis is rated for a true 600 lb weight capacity — not a number that drops once you add accessories or hit a bump. Here's why it actually holds up:
-
Four-post seat frame — twice the support of standard two-post designs. The seat stays anchored even at full capacity.
-
Reinforced steel base — the same heavy-duty frame design used in complex rehab chairs.
-
High-torque in-line motors — sized to move a fully loaded chair up a 10° incline, not just on flat ground.
-
3" anti-tippers — prevent tipping backward even when accelerating up a ramp.
⚠️ Honest note: Weight capacity covers rider + anything you carry (oxygen tank, bags, groceries). For best results and maximum lifespan, leave a 25–50 lb buffer below 600 lbs.
Driving Range of the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
With two 75Ah AGM batteries, the Atlantis can travel up to 32 miles on a single charge. That's one of the longest ranges in the bariatric power chair category. Here's what that actually looks like in real life:
🏥 Doctor appointment day: Round trip to a clinic 5 miles away + parking lot rolling around → ~12 miles. Easy.
🛒 Errand day: Grocery store, pharmacy, post office → ~8 miles. Easy.
🌳 Park outing: A full afternoon at a state park with paved trails → ~6–10 miles. Easy.
🏠 Daily home use: Around the house and yard → days between charges.
Note: Real-world range depends on rider weight, terrain, temperature, and battery age. New batteries also need a 2-week break-in period of daily charging to reach full range.
All-Day Comfort with the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
Long days deserve a chair that's kind to your body. Every comfort feature on the Atlantis was chosen with bariatric and senior riders in mind:
-
Captain's-style seat with thick padding and supportive bolsters
-
Extra-tall 21.25" backrest for full shoulder and upper-back support
-
Adjustable seat depth from 20" to 22" in 1" steps — dial in your perfect fit
-
Flip-up, height-adjustable armrests that detach for easier transfers
-
Swing-away joystick to roll right up to tables, desks, and counters
-
Semi-reclining backrest for a more relaxed seating angle
Power & Performance of the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
Two super high-power in-line motors give the Atlantis the muscle to take on real-world terrain that stops smaller chairs cold. The smart Dynamic LiNX controller makes driving easy to learn — even if you've never operated a power chair before.
Built-In Safety of the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
-
3" rear anti-tippers prevent tipping backward on inclines
-
Light reflectors boost visibility in dim conditions
-
Seat belt included for secure seating
-
Rugged pneumatic tires grip every surface — pavement, gravel, grass

Manufacturer Warranty on the Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair
Every Merits Atlantis Heavy-Duty Power Wheelchair comes backed by the official Merits Health Products manufacturer warranty — one of the most comprehensive warranties in the bariatric power chair industry. It's structured so that the parts most likely to last a long time are covered the longest, and parts that naturally wear faster have shorter coverage that still gives you peace of mind through the break-in period.
Important to know up front:
📅 Coverage starts on the original date of consumer purchase, not the date of manufacture.
👤 Warranty applies to the original consumer only — it does not transfer if you resell the chair.
🔧 Merits Health will repair or replace any covered part found to have a manufacturing defect.
🏠 Coverage applies to personal home use only — commercial use voids the warranty.
Coverage by Component — What You Get, Tier by Tier
★ TIER 1 — LONGEST
5-Year Warranty
The structural backbone of your chair — the parts that should last as long as you own it. Covered for a full five years from your purchase date:
✓ Base Frame — the welded steel structure
✓ Seatbelt — your primary safety restraint
TIER 2 — ELECTRONICS
18-Month Warranty
Your chair's drivetrain and electronics — the powered parts that make it move. Covered for 18 months from your purchase date:
✓ Joystick, Power Module & Controller — your driving and control system
✓ Motor, Gearbox & Brake Assembly — what moves and stops the chair
✓ Electrical Harnesses — the wiring that ties everything together
✓ Angle Sensor & Circuit Boards — internal electronics
✓ Charger — the off-board 6A unit included with your chair
✓ Transaxle — power delivery to the drive wheels
✓ PC Cushion, Back & Positioning Accessories
TIER 3 — FRAME PARTS
13-Month Warranty
Structural and mounting components, plus your batteries. Covered for 13 months from your purchase date:
✓ Seat Post / Mount — the four-post bariatric support system
✓ Power Seat Actuator — for the optional power seat upgrade

✓ Joystick Mounting Bracket
✓ Metal Seat Frame
✓ Anti-Tipper Assembly — rear safety hardware
✓ 75Ah AGM Batteries — both batteries that come with your Atlantis

TIER 4 — WEAR PARTS
6-Month Warranty
Moving and contact parts that naturally see more wear. Covered for six months from your purchase date:
✓ Bearings / Bushings
✓ Front Riggings
✓ Non-Powered Footplate
✓ PC Cover / Gel Pack
✓ Swivel Seat Mechanism
What the Warranty Does Not Cover
Like every manufacturer warranty, certain items are excluded — generally consumable parts or things that wear from normal use:
Excluded parts:
✗ Tires & tubes
✗ Fuses & bulbs
✗ Battery cases (the casing, not the batteries themselves)
✗ Plastic and rubber parts
✗ Motor brushes & brake pads
✗ Upholstery (seat pads, arm pads, padding)
✗ Painted surfaces (shrouds, fenders)
The warranty becomes void if damage results from any of the following:
-
Acts of nature, theft, or loss — flooding, fire, or stolen units are not covered
-
Commercial or rental use — coverage is for personal home use only
-
Accidents — collisions, drops, or impact damage
-
Neglect or improper operation — not following the owner's manual, missed maintenance, exceeding capacity
-
Unauthorized service — repairs or modifications by anyone not authorized by Merits Health Products
-
Removed or defaced serial numbers — Merits must be able to verify your chair's identity
Important Things to Know About Filing a Warranty Claim
💰 What you pay vs. what Merits pays: Merits Health Products covers the cost of the defective parts. You are responsible for labor, service calls, transportation, freight, and installation costs related to warranty repairs.
🔧 New or refurbished parts: Merits may choose to repair your chair with either new or refurbished parts, at their discretion.
⏰ Parts bought outside warranty: Replacement parts purchased on their own have a 90-day window to report a manufacturing defect.
📋 State law: This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may have additional rights that vary from state to state.
