Frequently Asked Questions

Is a transfer wheelchair the right type of wheelchair for me?

A transfer wheelchair is the right choice if the user will always be pushed by a carer, family member or companion rather than propelling themselves independently. Transfer wheelchairs are lightweight, compact and designed for assisted travel, making them ideal for shopping trips, hospital appointments, holidays and everyday outings. If the user wants to move themselves without assistance, a self-propelled wheelchair with larger rear wheels is likely to be a better option.

What's the difference between a transfer wheelchair and a self-propelled wheelchair?

A transfer wheelchair is designed to be pushed by an attendant, while a self-propelled wheelchair allows the user to move independently using its larger rear wheels. Transfer wheelchairs are typically lighter, fold into a more compact size and are easier to lift into a car, making them an excellent choice for travel and occasional everyday use. Self-propelled wheelchairs are better suited to users who have the strength and ability to propel themselves.

Will this transfer wheelchair fit in my car?

This adult transfer wheelchair folds into a compact size that fits into the boot of most cars. Its lightweight aluminium frame makes it easier to lift and transport than many standard wheelchairs, while the included wheeled storage bag helps keep it protected during travel. If you have limited boot space, we recommend checking your vehicle's available dimensions against the wheelchair's folded measurements before purchasing.

How do I know if this transfer wheelchair is the right size?

This transfer wheelchair is the right size if the seat width, seat depth and maximum user weight comfortably meet the user's requirements. Choosing the correct size helps improve comfort, posture and safety during use. Before purchasing, compare the wheelchair's dimensions with the user's measurements and consider whether it will also fit through doorways, into your vehicle and within the spaces where it will be used most often.

What is the maximum user weight for this transfer wheelchair?

The maximum user weight for this adult transfer wheelchair is 115kg (18 stone). Staying within the recommended weight capacity helps maintain the wheelchair's stability, performance and longevity. Always check the product specifications before purchasing to ensure the wheelchair is suitable for the intended user.

Is this transfer wheelchair suitable for everyday use?

This transfer wheelchair is suitable for everyday assisted use, including shopping trips, medical appointments, visiting friends and family, holidays and days out. Its lightweight aluminium frame, compact folding design and comfortable seating make it easy to transport and convenient to store between uses. It is designed for users who require assistance from a carer or companion rather than independent mobility.

Can I take this transfer wheelchair on holiday?

This lightweight transfer wheelchair is designed to travel easily on holidays, weekends away and day trips. Its compact folding frame fits into the boot of most cars, while the lightweight construction and included wheeled storage bag make it easier to transport through airports, hotels, cruise terminals and other travel destinations. If you plan to fly, it's worth checking with your airline for any specific requirements regarding wheelchair carriage.

Why should I buy a transfer wheelchair instead of hiring one?

Buying a transfer wheelchair is often the better choice if you need regular or ongoing mobility support. Owning your wheelchair means it's always available for hospital appointments, family outings, holidays and everyday travel without the need to arrange repeat hires. For frequent use, purchasing can provide better long-term value while giving you the convenience of having a reliable mobility aid ready whenever it's needed.
