Tired of Your Old Power Chair? Meet the XSTO M4
Posted by Susan T. on Dec 3rd 2025
Basic power wheelchairs are reliable, but they’re not innovative. They do the job, but when it comes to comfort, tech, or getting around tough terrain, they fall short.
If you’re ready for something smarter, smoother, and way more fun to drive, say hello to the XSTO M4 Self-Balancing Power Wheelchair.
This isn’t just another mobility device. It’s an upgrade to your lifestyle and if you’re looking for a power wheelchair in Sonoma County, we at Mobility Masters are here to help you test it out in person.
So, What’s the Big Deal with the XSTO M4?
It’s not hype, it’s just a better chair. Here’s what makes the M4 stand out from your typical power wheelchair.
? It’s Self-Balancing (Yep, Really!)
You know how some chairs get sketchy on slopes or small curbs? Not this one. The XSTO M4 has built-in self-balancing tech that keeps you stable even on a 15° incline or when rolling over a 2” bump. It's great for sidewalks, ramps, or uneven trails around Sonoma County.
? 360° Movement
The front Mecanum wheels let you move in any direction—even spin in place. That means tight turns in kitchens or hallways are a breeze.
✈️ Travel-Ready
This chair was made for mobility in every sense. It folds and disassembles into three lightweight parts with just one button press. Toss it in the trunk and head out—no need to haul a ramp or worry about storage space.

Why It Matters Day-to-Day
Let’s say you're out and about in Santa Rosa or Petaluma. The M4 handles curbs, slopes, and sidewalks like a champ. Need a break? Tilt back, raise the seat, relax. Want to adjust something? Just use the app on your phone. Try doing that with a standard chair!
Even inside your home, the M4 shines. Tight corners? Handled. Narrow hallways? No problem. And when it's time to hit the road, packing it up takes minutes.
Who’s the M4 Really For?
The XSTO M4 is perfect if you:
- Travel often or need to pack your chair into a car
- Want smoother rides on outdoor paths, gravel, or uneven surfaces
- Need extra comfort features like power tilt and recline
- Love a bit of high-tech convenience (hello, phone controls!)
Not Ready to Fully Upgrade?
Totally fine! Not everyone needs the bells and whistles. Basic power wheelchairs still get the job done—especially for indoor use or shorter trips. But if you’re starting to feel limited by yours, the M4 could open up a whole new level of independence.
