Need an ultra-lightweight folding wheelchair with high-strength material? Then the Invacare Lightweight Wheelchair should appeal to you! With its lightweight design and carbon steel construction, this model is one of the most durable for people who need strength. The heavy-duty frame, wide seat, and desk-length arms make it all the more appealing for those who love quality and strength.
Extremely light, the Invacare Wheelchair seems very easy to transport. This is perfectly ideal if its user regularly travels outdoors. Equipped with a practical opening system, this top-of-the-range model allows very easy storage and carrying to reassure the accompanying person. It also has brakes actuated by the latter, as well as a brake release lever for optimal handling, especially during descent.
Why are we impressed?
- For comfort, it is provided by the backrest and seat padding. We also love its heavy-duty and elegant design. It’s one of the most lightweight wheelchairs on this list. Easy to collapse, you can make it go through a narrow way or store it in your car trunk.
What negatives must you be aware of?
- This is not a tenable downside as the brake works well, especially when you see users’ comments about this. But the system would work best with a brake extender, which you’d need to get separately. Also, we wish it is designed more ergonomically, considering it has no footrest.
