At 2KERR, we are proud of the role we play in improving the quality of life for people with physical disabilities. Today, we share an inspiring story, recently published in De Telegraaf, about the revolutionary technology behind our balance wheelchairs, including the ibot.
Even before the Segway was introduced, the inventors developed a technology that allows for dynamic balance — not just for riding but also for climbing stairs and standing upright. That same technology was applied in the ibot, a modern balance wheelchair that has since been further developed into a true gamechanger.
Maarten Lebon: freedom in one word
Maarten Lebon, 65 years old and a wheelchair user since he was 48, sums it up powerfully: “In one word: freedom.” Thanks to his balance wheelchair, he can walk his dogs independently, go hiking in the woods abroad, and move freely in his daily life. His ibot has given him autonomy and quality of life — and that for nine years now.
At 2KERR, we offer a wide range of balance wheelchairs, suitable for various needs and situations. Our models vary in price from €6,000 to €55,000. Although it is an investment, every user indicates that you get something priceless in return: freedom.
Did you know that you can apply for support for the purchase of a balance wheelchair through WMO/PGB subsidies or the UWV? We would be happy to advise you on this.
Why choose a balance wheelchair?
Life without limits
Whether you want to explore a mountain path in Austria or grab a cup from a kitchen cabinet, a balance wheelchair literally and figuratively opens doors. As Maarten aptly puts it: “Thanks to this balance wonder my quality of life has increased. I can no longer imagine a life without it.”
