Product Description

Lifting heavy mobility chairs into car trunks or maneuvering through crowded living rooms can quickly wear down caregivers and travelers. The Drive Medical Fly-lite transport wheelchair, with a 19-inch seat width, eliminates this physical strain by delivering an ultra-lightweight aluminum design weighing just 14.5 lbs. Despite its featherlight feel, this portable transport chair is engineered to safely hold passenger weights up to 300 lbs, making it an exceptional companion chair for everyday outings, shopping trips, and medical visits.

User comfort and simple handling are built into every part of the Fly-Lite design. Its 19-inch-wide seat pairs with an attractive, durable plaid-style nylon upholstery that resists wear and cleans in seconds. A fold-down backrest allows the chair to pack down into a slim 9-inch profile that fits neatly into car trunks, closets, or backseat footwells. Outfitted with tool-free height-adjustable swing-away footrests for easy standing transfers, 6-inch front caster wheels paired with 8-inch rear casters, an adjustable safety seat belt, aluminum rear parking locks, and a rear backrest carry pocket, this companion chair ensures smooth, safe transport with zero hassle.

Simple Setup & Routine Care Guidance

To unfold the chair, press down firmly on both sides of the seat until the frame opens fully flat and the nylon fabric is taut. Lift the backrest push handles upward until the back hinges snap solidly into upright position. Mount the swing-away footrests onto the front frame pins and rotate inward until they click shut, adjusting footplate height so feet rest level. When stopping or helping someone into or out of the chair, always engage both aluminum rear wheel locks. To keep the chair clean, wipe the aluminum frame and plaid upholstery with a damp cloth and mild soap, then towel dry before storing.
