About This Product
This is a transit wheelchair, so it is made to be pushed by someone else rather than self propelled. It suits appointments, shopping centres and days out where the distance is more than the person can walk. The frame is super lightweight aluminium and it folds, so one person can load it into a car boot.
The legrests swing away and lift off, which makes getting in and out easier and lets you bring the chair closer for a transfer. The backrest folds down to save space in storage or the car. It runs 8 inch rear castor wheels and 6 inch front castor wheels, with locking attendant brakes. Maximum user weight is 125kg.

- Super lightweight aluminium frame
- Swing away removable legrests

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this wheelchair NDIS-fundable?
Yes. Manual wheelchairs can be funded under NDIS Assistive Technology — either Low Cost or Higher Cost depending on the chair and your support needs. Specialised or tilt-in-space chairs generally fall under Higher Cost. Our team can assist with quotes, OT referrals, and plan manager invoicing — contact us to get started.
How do I choose the right seat width?
Measure the widest point of your hips and thighs when seated, then add approximately 25–50mm for comfort. If you're between sizes, our team can help — contact us before ordering and we'll make sure you get the right fit. For complex needs, an OT assessment is recommended.
Can I trial one at your showroom?
Yes — we offer in-person trials at our Picton showroom. For NDIS-funded purchases, your occupational therapist may also need to assess and prescribe before purchase. Contact our team and we'll coordinate everything, including referrals to local allied health professionals if needed.
How long does delivery take?
In-stock orders are dispatched the next business day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days to most metro areas. For larger or bariatric wheelchairs, our team will contact you to arrange a suitable delivery window. Rural and remote deliveries may take slightly longer.
Can I return it if it doesn't suit?
Returns are accepted within 30 days for products that are brand new and unused in their original packaging. We strongly recommend confirming the correct seat width with our team before ordering. For NDIS-funded purchases, please contact your plan manager before initiating a return.
