A steel transport chair is heavy to lift into a trunk after an appointment. The Drive Fly Lite Ultra Lightweight Transport Chair is an aluminum attendant chair with a 19 inch seat. Blue, Black, and Burgundy frames are variants on this page. The back folds down, and swing-away footrests come on the chair.
Someone else pushes this chair. It is not a self-propel wheelchair with large rear wheels. The Drive Fly Lite Ultra Lightweight Transport Chair uses an aluminum frame, 8 inch rear wheels, and 6 inch front casters. A pocket sits on the backrest for a small bag. Pull the deluxe back release when you want the canes down for a trunk.
The Fly Lite frame is aluminum. If the steel Drive transport already on the store feels like too much to hoist after a clinic visit, this is the lighter attendant chair in the same 19 inch seat class.
Folding back canes drop the backrest. The deluxe release is on this model. Fold it after the appointment so the chair sits flatter in a car.
A carry pocket is sewn on the back. Put a wallet or folded jacket there instead of holding it in the occupant's lap while you push.
Blue with blue plaid, black with red plaid, and burgundy with black upholstery are color variants here. Do not hunt three product URLs.
Aluminum rear wheel locks are on the chair. Set them before a transfer. The occupant does not get hand rims. You control the stop.
Fly Lite is for an attendant who will push a 19 inch aluminum transport chair and fold the back for a car. It is not a self-propel wheelchair, and it is not the Expedition chair with 12 inch rear wheels and handle brakes.
Choose Expedition when you want larger rear wheels and companion loop locks at the handles. Choose a self-propel wheelchair when the occupant will push.
All four are attendant chairs. Fly Lite is the aluminum 8 inch-rear model with a folding back and a backrest pocket. Steel is heavier. Expedition adds 12 inch rear wheels and handle brakes. Flyweight lets you pull the casters off.
