Product Details

The Compact Folding Transit Chair is a perfect blend of value for money, practicality and comfort.

This transit chair is not only cost-effective but also highly robust, making it a reliable companion for your journeys. Its folding back and swing-away footrests allow for effortless storage and transportation, ensuring you can take it wherever you go with ease.

For added security and comfort, the chair comes equipped with a seat belt and padded armrests. The 8-inch front and rear castors make it suitable for use on most surfaces, providing a smooth and stable ride. The chair is finished with attractive nylon upholstery, which is both durable and easy to clean, ensuring it remains in excellent condition with minimal effort.

The Compact Folding Transit Chair features a lightweight steel frame, making it ideal for occasional or regular use. It folds in seconds, fitting conveniently into the boot of your car, bus, coach, or aeroplane.

The backrest folds down to ensure a compact fit, and with a choice of black hammered effect, blue or black, you can choose a style that suits you best.

Weighing just over 12kg, including the footrests, this chair is light enough to be lifted in and out of a car boot with ease.

It boasts deluxe padded nylon upholstery, a 19-inch wide seat, and puncture-proof solid wheels for added peace of mind. The fixed padded PVC armrests and adjustable swing-away footrests enhance comfort, while the lap belt and parking brake provide additional safety.

With a maximum user weight limit of 18 stones, the Transit Chair is designed to accommodate a wide range of users.

A handy carry bag is available for purchase separately, offering even more convenience for your travels.
