Lightweight Portability, Caregiver Convenience
An ideal transit wheelchair should be as easy for the caregiver to manage as it is comfortable for the user. The Drive DeVilbiss XS Aluminium Transit Wheelchair excels on all fronts, offering a superb blend of lightweight portability, robust design, and essential safety features. Its clever folding mechanism and durable aluminium frame make it the perfect choice for hassle-free transportation, whether you’re heading to appointments, going on a day trip, or visiting family. It’s a wheelchair designed to make every journey simpler and more enjoyable for everyone.
Designed for Ultimate Portability
The standout feature of the XS is its exceptional, lightweight design. The strong aluminium frame weighs just 15kg, making it significantly easier to lift and handle. For transportation and storage, the frame folds with ease, and features a half-folding backrest which allows it to collapse into an even more compact and manageable size. Combined with swing-away, removable footrests, the XS is brilliantly designed to fit into almost any car boot with minimal effort.
Caregiver-Friendly Control and Safety
As a transit wheelchair, the XS is equipped with features to provide complete peace of mind for the attendant. The push handles incorporate reliable, attendant-operated cable brakes, allowing the caregiver to control the speed and park the wheelchair securely with ease. The solid, puncture-proof tyres provide a smooth and dependable ride on a variety of surfaces, with the added benefit of being completely maintenance-free, so you never have to worry about a flat tyre when you’re out and about.
Comfortable and Practical for the User
The XS ensures a comfortable and practical ride for the user. The durable nylon upholstery is both supportive and easy to clean, while the full-length padded armrests provide excellent comfort. The swing-away footrests not only offer customisable leg support but also make getting in and out of the chair much safer and easier. To ensure a better fit, the wheelchair is available in two different seat widths: a standard 18″ in Blue and a wider 20″ in Red.
