The trays are either clamped to the wheelchair armrests or secured with tray straps and both methods are very secure and stable. The size of the trays are roughly half the width of the wheelchair seats and they are meant to be small and mobile, providing just enough space for the user. There are mega lap trays which is as wide as the width of the seats and you can place more things on it without them falling off easily. Electric wheelchair trays sell for around $200, however, old and used electric wheelchair trays can be sold for less than half the price.
