Living life to the fullest means spending time with loved ones and exploring new places. Transport chairs help make that possible. They are significantly lighter and more compact than traditional wheelchairs, making them ideal for travel and easy use almost anywhere. The NOVA 22-inch Lightweight Transport Chair features 12” rear wheels, a sturdy yet lightweight aluminum frame, and comfortable padded upholstery. This chair is foldable and includes padded, detachable/reversible desk arms for added convenience. For enhanced safety, it has locking rear wheels and hand brakes that give caregivers better control over bumps and inclines. The chair comes equipped with removable, adjustable swing-away footrests with heel straps and a seat belt for added security and comfort.
