About this product
If you need a wheelchair that gives you the choice to wheel yourself or be pushed by someone else, this one is designed for both. The lightweight aluminium frame makes it manageable to lift into a car boot or store away when you are not using it, and it folds down compact so it does not take up much space. The armrests and footrests adjust to suit you, and the footrests swing to the side when you are getting in and out. It is built to handle everyday journeys without being heavy or hard to manoeuvre.
The frame stays strong while keeping the weight down, so it is easier to transport and store. The front tyres are puncture-proof for low maintenance, and the pneumatic rear tyres give you a smoother ride over different surfaces. The backrest folds down and the wheels release quickly, so packing it away is straightforward. This wheelchair is suitable for users up to a certain weight, and it supports independent wheeling or companion pushing. It comes with a 1-year guarantee.
