The Aotedor Electric Wheelchair is one of the lightest electric wheelchairs and arguably the best folding electric wheelchair on the market today. It weighs just 46 pounds, including the battery, and folds down flat in seconds. If you frequently travel with your wheelchair, whether by car, plane, or cruise ship, the Voyager R2 is hard to beat.
There are some nice features to this wheelchair beyond just portability. It offers 3.5 inches of ground clearance and heavy-duty never-flat wheels. There is a spring suspension system over the front wheels, helping to reduce vibrations if you move around on uneven ground. Users also liked that the space under the seat is open on this wheelchair and can be used for storage.
Unfortunately, this wheelchair can be hard to maneuver if you’re using it in tight indoor spaces. It has a turning radius of 32 inches, which is large even among rear-drive wheelchairs. That’s despite the fact that it’s narrower than some other wheelchairs – the seat is only 17 inches across.
What we liked
This wheelchair is extremely lightweight and easy to fold. It comes with a five-year warranty on the frame, too, so you don’t have to worry about problems with the folding mechanism.
What could be better
The seat on this wheelchair isn’t the most comfortable we’ve seen. It’s only 17 inches wide and doesn’t have lumbar support or a headrest. The foot rest also consists of just a narrow bar, not paddles for your feet.
