The Drive Medical Expedition Transport chair is arguably the perfect combination of weight, functionality, and portability. It is designed for a wheelchair user that will be pushed over short to medium distances. Mainly, it stands out because of its weight (approximately 19 pounds), its portability, and its highly functional design (it has brakes, footrests, armrests, a seatbelt, + more).
This transport chair is attractive, and highly useful; most people that use it rave over how easy it is to use, and how much easier their life and the time they spend with their loved ones is now that they have access to a transport wheelchair.
We rent and sell many of these every year; it is a consistent favourite that meets patient or family transport needs very well. Caregivers are never disappointed.
Brakes are built into the handles of this transport chair. This underrated feature means that the caregiver does not need to stoop down or take their hands off the wheelchair to engage the brakes.
The large 12 inch rear wheels are puncture proof, and help amplify the caregivers pushing effort due to their size. The front casters swivel smoothly, providing fine control over steering the wheelchair over a range of surfaces.
This transport chair is arguably the most conveniently comfortable lightweight wheelchair available in Canada. We rent a great number of these every year, and customer feedback is nearly always 5 stars. It suits specific transport needs for a caregiver, and does that task very well.
The comfortable seat and backrest are made of a rip-resistant material that provides just enough “give”, without being too stretchy.
Footrests are removable, and also height adjustable within a few inches. They can swing away during storage, or easily removed altogether to make the chair compact.
Ask us about the optional armrest upgrade; we replace the factory nylon armrest with a leatherette with thick padding. This upgrade makes for easier cleaning, and a comfortable experience when your skin makes direct contact with the armrests.
