Overview
Product overview

Heavy-duty capacity, standard-chair maneuverability. The Golden Compass HD GP620 is Golden Technologies' bariatric power wheelchair, rated for riders up to 450 lb. Built on a six-wheel, center-wheel-drive platform with a springless articulating chassis, it keeps a 20-inch turning radius — the indoor agility most chairs in this weight class trade away. It suits full-time users who need genuine bariatric capacity for everyday use at home and around town.
Good to know

- Doorways: at 25 inches wide overall, the Compass HD fits standard interior doorways, and the 20-inch turning radius means most turns don't take a back-and-forth maneuver.
- Transport: this is a full-size power chair, not a travel chair. The seat folds flat and lifts off for hauling, but the base alone weighs about 101 lb — plan on a vehicle lift or ramp rather than trunk transport.
- Charging: the included off-board charger plugs into the chair — no need to remove the batteries to charge.
The Compass HD GP620 sits in a specific niche: bariatric weight capacity (450 lb) with the indoor maneuverability of a standard-size chair. Most chairs that hit 450 lb capacity do it by going wider and longer, sacrificing turning radius and doorway clearance. The Compass HD keeps a 20-inch turning radius by using a mid-wheel-drive layout and a clever frame design.
Mid-wheel drive is also why the GP620 handles indoor floor transitions (carpet to hardwood, tile to grout, threshold lifts) better than rear-wheel-drive bariatric competitors. The drive wheels carry the rider's center of mass directly above them, so weight shift over a transition doesn't unweight the drive — there's no climbing-over-an-obstacle moment. The chair just rolls through.
Golden rates the GP620 at up to 12 miles per charge on its two NF22 batteries — measured at the chair's maximum rated weight, so a lighter rider on smooth indoor surfaces will see more. That covers a normal day of errands with margin; plan to charge nightly rather than treating it as a multi-day range.
Frame disassembles for vehicle transport. Heaviest piece is 101 lb — plan for two-person lifting or a vehicle lift; this is not a one-person carry. Compare to monolithic bariatric chairs that can only be moved by a winch or two-person team.

Delivery & Warranty
Shipping & Delivery
The Compass HD GP620 ships free with curbside LTL freight delivery to any address in the continental United States. The chair itself weighs 226 lb; it ships crated, and we can confirm the exact freight weight for your address on request. Most orders ship within 3-5 business days and arrive within 10-14 business days.
Three delivery options
- Free Curbside Freight — included with every order. The chair arrives crated; the carrier delivers to your driveway or curb. You'll need an adult to sign and to move the crate inside (recommended: two people).
- Inside Delivery — additional fee. The carrier brings the boxed item inside at ground level where there are no steps (zero threshold), for example into your garage or through a step-free front door. It is not unpacked or set up; choose White Glove for that. Useful if you don't have help to move a crated bariatric chair. Call (803) 926-1493 for pricing.
- White Glove Delivery — highly recommended for the GP620. Includes full uncrating in the room of your choice, assembly (the chair ships partially disassembled for transport), demo on charging and operation, and packaging removal. Worth the upgrade fee for first-time bariatric chair owners.
Color lead time
Both Red and Blue ship from in-stock inventory; lead time is identical.

This extended capacity, combined with its heavy-duty frame, ensures reliable and stable performance for larger users on a variety of terrains.
The Golden Compass HD GP620 uses a center-wheel-drive (mid-wheel drive) platform, which places the main drive wheels at the center of the chair for a tighter, more responsive turning radius — in this case, an industry-leading 20 inches. This makes it significantly more maneuverable than front- or rear-wheel-drive chairs in tight indoor spaces like hallways and doorways, while the articulating chassis still provides excellent stability outdoors on uneven terrain.

The Golden Compass HD GP620 features an exclusive fold-flat seat hinge design and a four-post seat mount with a slide seat bracket that adjusts seat pitch, making the chair more manageable to disassemble for transport. While it is a heavy-duty bariatric powerchair, these design features help simplify loading into a vehicle or transport van compared to other chairs in its class.
