About the Featherweight Wheelchair
At only 13.5 lbs, the Feather Wheelchair is the lightest wheelchair in the world. Taking advantage of brand-new materials, the Featherweight sets a new standard. Practically everyone can lift this ultra light wheelchair into your car, truck or SUV. It is super easy to propel and push. The weight capacity is 250 lbs.
Transporting the Featherweight Wheelchair could not be easier. The chair folds down into a compact package. First, fold down the backrest and then pull up in the middle of the seat. Optional, quick-release wheels allow a caregiver to remove the larger, back wheels with the push of the button. Once you arrive at your destination, unfolding takes less than a minute.
**If you're looking for the larger bariatric version of this chair, we also have that option.**
Standard features include:
Wheel locks
Easily accessible by the seated user at the front of the frame. Wheel locks prevent the wheelchair from rolling forward or backward.
Caregiver Braking System
Operated by bicycle style locking brake levers located at the push handles, these handbrakes provide the caregiver control, security, and convenience when descending or pausing on a slope.
Swing-Away/Removable Leg Rests
The leg rests that you see in the photos come standard, but there is an option for elevating rests if needed.
Solid Flat-Free Tires
The Featherweight 13.5 lbs Wheelchair comes standard with wheels that have solid polyurethane tires. The optional quick release wheels also come with solid polyurethane tires.
One Back and Seat Overlay
Pick the color you'd like for the standard 1" thick back and seat overlay. Additional overlays available for extra cost.
Armrests
The Feather Chair comes with built in padded armrests for extra comfort.
