Lightweight Wheelchairs

Every kilogram of wheelchair is a kilogram someone lifts into a car boot several times a week. Lightweight chairs exist because backs, shoulders and independence all last longer when the chair weighs less.

The Breezy Basix is an aluminium self propelled chair with more adjustment than a basic steel chair. Aluminium frames bring the weight down a lot compared with steel.

Trade-offs are real: lighter chairs cost more and some sacrifice adjustability, so the right chair depends on whether the priority is the boot lift or the daily push. That is a five minute conversation with our pharmacists on 1300 216 888, followed by a trial if it is close. NDIS funds lightweight chairs routinely; quotes leave here the same day they are requested.

Lightweight wheelchairs

A lighter chair is easier to push, easier to lift into the car, and easier to wheel yourself. For daily use, the weight difference adds up fast for both user and carer.

The Breezy Basix Wheelchair ($949.95) is an aluminium self-propelled chair with adjustments a basic steel chair doesn't have. More lightweight options, including the Aspire Vida and Evoke range, are in wheelchairs.

What to check

Seat width should leave about two fingers either side of the hips. Check the folded size against your boot, and whether the rear wheels quick-release to make it lighter to lift.
