Product Details


This Lightweight Aluminium Wheelchair is an economical option that still retains a lot of high quality features.

With an aluminium frame, it is both sturdy and lightweight. It is available as self-propelled or attendant-propelled versions.

When combined with its folding design, this makes the Lightweight Wheelchair easy to transport and store.

On the self-propelled version, the large rear wheels and pneumatic tyres ensure a smooth and comfortable ride. They also easily detach when the chair is not in use. Handrails on the wheels enable self-propulsion, and the front wheels swivel for enhanced maneuverability.

The transit, or attendant-propelled, version of the chair has smaller and lighter rear wheels as well as cable brakes on rear handles to allow immediate access for the attendant to reduce speed or lock brakes for parking.

Comfort is assured by the flexible nylon seat and backrest, and by the padded armrests.

A pair of footrests give the user more stability and can be used for re-positioning in the chair.

These can also be height adjusted to give each user the correct leg placement.

The seatbelt adds safety and can be used to aid with posture.

NB. If a Reboxed option of this product is available it may have slight cosmetic markings. It is mechanically perfect and comes with a full 12 month warranty.

Free Insurance Cover for a month

This Lightweight Aluminium Wheelchair comes with an optional FREE one-month, worldwide insurance package that includes 24/7 breakdown recovery as well as protection from accidental damage. You'll also be covered should you accidentally injure someone or damage their property when using your Lightweight Aluminium Wheelchair and protected from theft and vandalism.

After you complete your purchase, we'll tell you more about the cover and offer you the chance to activate your free month of insurance with no obligation and no payment details required.
