About this product
If you are new to using a wheelchair or only need one now and then, this compact transit chair makes getting about much easier. It is light enough to lift in and out of the car without strain, and it folds down in seconds so you can take it with you on trips, store it in the car boot, or tuck it away at home when it is not needed. The puncture-proof tyres mean you will not get caught out with a flat, and the padded seat and backrest keep you comfortable. The seatbelt gives you extra security, and the parking brakes keep the chair stable when you stop.
The lightweight frame makes it easy to transport and lift. The adjustable, swing-away footrests let you customise the setup and make getting in and out easier. The removable leg rest and folding backrest give you flexibility for different situations. The deluxe padded upholstery provides comfort during use. This wheelchair is suitable for occasional or new users and fits in car boots, coaches or aeroplanes. It comes with a 1-year guarantee.

Good economical wheelchair
I had been struggling to find a cheap wheelchair for my Mum. She was visiting from Pakistan and stayed with me for a few weeks. In situations where you know that you will be using a wheelchair for a couple weeks, this product is a suitable option to consider. Even though it said max weight limit 115, my mum was able to commute comfortably with a body weight higher then the limit. The only concern for me was, since it has small wheels, we struggled to push the wheelchair on uneven surfces like walk ways in central london and roads in East London.

Aidapt Steel Blue Compact Wheelchair
Brilliant. We bought to this for our mum. It really is very useful both at home and to use when we make trips locally. It' light and eady to maneuver. We bought this one because we saw someone using it and they told they got theirs from Argos.

Easy to put together and pack away
This is very easy and quick to put together and pack away. I don't find it too heavy to lift in and out of the car, but it can be a bit awkward to manoeuvre into the boot so that with the weight might be a problem for some people. It fits upright in the boot of an old-style Honda Jazz (without the boot cover on), so you have to prop it to stop it banging against the window. Annoyingly, it's just slightly too big to lie flat without putting the back seats down. However, it does just about lie flat in the boot of a new Renault Clio. I bought the wheelchair cushion to go with it and that's definitely needed for comfort. I've only given it 4 stars as we've used it only a few times in the three weeks we've had it, but at least one of the wheels is now squeaking quite badly. My mum is well below the maximum weight for the wheelchair, so I don't think it's that. However, overall, it's so far been a good buy for the money.

Does the job!
My elderly mother is having difficulty staying on her feet for long or walking more than a very short distance so the wheelchair was purchased to help her get out and about a bit more. We have only had two outings so far but the chair is easier to manoeuvre than I'd expected. The pavements aren't the best in our town so it is a bit of a bumpy ride at times but I've had no serious complaints from my mother. The wheelchair took very little setting up. I just needed to tighten the bolts securing the handles in place and put on the footrests. The wheelchair folds and unfolds easily and most people would be able to find a suitable place to keep it while folded. I think that this wheelchair will give good value for money.

Hi Jan,
Looking at the reviews, other customers are happy with this product and report it is easy to fold away.
Thanks for using Q&A,
Yes it's easy to fold away, but take the feet stirups off when packing away, because they get in the way. They're easy to line up and refit.
Hi there,
Yes, you can.
Thanks for using Q&A
Yes you can, but they do get in the way when storing prior to travelling. It would be better to take them off and store separately. They are easy to take off and refit, just takes seconds.
Yes they fold so that the chair can be stored flat
Yes, but they do get in the way when folding up. Better to take them off and store separately inbtranisit.
