What is the Mobility Scooter Front Basket Cover used for?
This front basket cover provides a waterproof and secure way to protect your belongings while using your mobility scooter. It keeps items dry, adds extra storage, and improves safety with its high-visibility reflective design.
What makes this product different from others like it?
Unlike cheap alternatives that use thin, low-quality materials, this front basket cover is made from heavy-duty Oxford nylon with reinforced stitching for long-lasting durability. The waterproof material, strong zips, and secure drawcord provide superior protection, while cheaper versions often leak, tear easily, or lose shape over time. The bright hi-viz colour and reflective strip also enhance visibility, offering a level of safety that many cheaper covers do not.
How does the quality compare to budget versions?
This is a premium product designed to last. Many budget covers use lightweight materials that can fade, tear, or wear out quickly. This cover is built with thick, durable fabric, industrial-strength stitching, and a reinforced zipper to withstand frequent outdoor use. Unlike cheaper options that may struggle to hold their shape, this cover maintains its structure and function over time.
Will this front basket cover fit my mobility scooter?
Yes, this cover is available in two sizes to fit most mobility scooter front baskets. The medium size is designed for pre-2021 Invacare plastic baskets, Merits, and Pride Mobility plastic baskets. The large size fits 2021 and newer Invacare plastic baskets and most wire baskets. If you are unsure, contact Mobility Plus for assistance.
Is the cover waterproof?
Yes, the heavy-duty Oxford nylon material is fully waterproof, keeping your belongings safe and dry even in heavy rain. The secure zip and drawcord closure add extra protection to prevent water from getting inside. Cheaper versions often use lower-quality materials that absorb moisture or allow leaks over time.
Does the cover have additional storage features?
Yes, it includes a handy zipped pocket inside the top flap, perfect for storing smaller items like keys or a phone. The internal top drawcord provides extra security for your belongings while keeping them easily accessible. Unlike budget options, this cover is designed for both protection and organisation.
How does the hi-viz colour improve safety?
The bright high-visibility fabric and reflective strip on the front of the cover make you more visible in all weather conditions. This added visibility helps others see you, reducing the risk of accidents, especially in low-light or rainy conditions. Many budget covers lack reflective elements, making them less effective for safety.
