Raleigh, NC - Oct. 29, 2009 - USM, an online retailer of over 10,000 medical and mobility products, has announced a new addition to its line of vehicle wheelchair lift offerings. The Auto Power Chair Lift 350 Deluxe has several unique features which make the wheelchair lift easier to use and more convenient. Unlike most other vehicle wheelchair lifts, the Auto Power Chair Lift 350 Deluxe features an automatic holding arm instead of straps; and the platform will automatically fold upward for space-saving convenience when it is not carrying a power chair.

The automatic holding arm feature removes the hassle of having to use manual straps or modifying the power chair to secure it to the vehicle. All the user needs to do to secure the power chair is to drive it on to the platform and activate the lift. The holding arm will automatically lock into place once the chair is in position. "This feature makes the Auto Power Chair Lift 350 Deluxe the easiest-to-use wheelchair lift available. We're excited to be able to offer it to our customers" said Tim Ziehwein, USM  VP of Sales.

USM offers a wide variety of different types of wheelchair lifts, from vehicle wheelchair lifts to fixed-installation vertical lifts. Their selection of vehicle wheelchair lifts and carriers includes low-cost models that use a ramp instead of a power lift function as well as easy-to-use powered wheelchair lifts. In addition to power wheelchair lifts, USM offers a wide range of mobility and accessibility products, such as power wheelchairs, mobility scooters, stair lifts, bath lifts, and walk-in bathtubs. Their online store at www.usmedicalsupplies.com offers more than 10,000 medical and mobility products, and their customer care phone lines are open seven days a week.
