Until now the Inogen One G3 and the Inogen One G5 could be carried using the provided carrying bags. Even though both of these portable oxygen concentrators are lightweight (4.7 lbs. for the Inogen One G5 and 4.8 lbs. for the Inogen One G3), patients requested another transport option. The Inogen One Cart allows you to roll your Inogen One G3 or G5 unit in its carrying case, rather than exclusively carrying it on your shoulder or back, offering you more options for mobility.
There are two different slots available inside the Inogen One Cart so it works for both the Inogen One G3 and the Inogen One G5. These slots help ensure that your Inogen One portable oxygen concentrator unit sits securely in the cart. Since you place your portable oxygen concentrator in the cart inside of its carrying bag (provided with rental or purchase), the carry bag handle slips over the Inogen One Cart handle, providing added protection. Even while secured in the cart, your Inogen One unit’s controls are accessible.
The Inogen One Cart is lightweight, weighing just 3.25 lbs. This cart is collapsible by way of a push-button handle, just like a rolling airline suitcase. Once collapsed, the cart is just 17.68 inches tall, and it is always 12.51 inches wide. The Inogen One Cart is also adjustable to fit your stature, with two height levels available to help you hold and pull it comfortably. The collapsible handle can be lifted to 34 inches or fully extended to 41 inches so that you can choose the handle height that works best for you.*
