A Guide to Buy Mobility Equipment Online
It’s important to keep these things in mind when buying products online

E-commerce runs the world, and India is no different. There’s nothing you can’t buy online these days, from clothes to medicines and even health care products of all kinds. It’s important, however, to be more careful about buying disability equipment online. We have some pointers.
Figure out exactly what you need
It is essential that you understand the different types of aids available for your condition to determine which one best fits your needs. You can talk to your doctors, professionals who specialise in disability equipment, caregivers and experienced users, if possible, to learn pros and cons and make the best decision for yourself.
Do your research
Don’t buy the first product that you come across online, even if the retailer is top-notch. Research everything — product specifications, user reviews, other retail websites and return policies — and make a shortlist before finalising the equipment you will buy. Familiarise yourself with the latest technologies available, figure out product warranties and try to bag a deal in the process if possible. Disability equipment, especially mobility equipment, can be very expensive so make sure you do the work to get something that’s long-lasting, durable and from a reliable retailer.
Consider your budget
When buying a disability aid, it is important to consider associated costs. Apart from your initial investment, ongoing fees for maintenance or repairs must be factored in as well. Make sure to get an aid that suits your budget long-term and gives you real value for money.
Try out equipment before purchasing
Once your research is complete, try out a few disability products before committing to buying one. A good way of going about this is to rent products for a short while to test them — this will give you a solid idea of whether the product works for you or not. This is a great way to ensure that what you ultimately purchase will offer the best aid in your specific situation.
