Description
The Feather Kids Wheelchair is an ultra lightweight wheelchair sized for children. The frame weighs just 12 lbs. without the rear wheels, and the complete chair weighs 17 lbs. It comes in a 12″ seat with orange upholstery or a 14″ seat with blue upholstery, both with colorful, washable nylon fabric and a seat belt. It has 20″ quick-release rear wheels with hand rims, 6″ front casters and a lower 16″ seat height, and it supports up to 200 lbs.
Children are often put in an adult chair that is far too wide and too heavy for them to push. That makes it hard for a child to move on their own and hard for a parent to lift the chair into the car. A chair sized for a child is easier to propel, safer to sit in and much easier for the family to take everywhere.
Key Features
- Ultra lightweight: 12 lbs. without rear wheels, 17 lbs. complete.
- Two seat widths: 12″ (orange) or 14″ (blue).
- Colorful, washable nylon upholstery.
- Seat belt included.
- 20″ quick-release rear wheels with hand rims.
- Lower 16″ seat height for smaller riders.
- Folds compactly for the car and school.
Built for Kids to Push Themselves
The 20″ rear wheels are smaller than adult 24″ wheels, which puts the hand rims within easy reach of shorter arms. With only 17 lbs. of chair to move, children can propel the Feather Kids Wheelchair with less effort and build independence at home, at school and on the playground. The 16″ seat height is lower than an adult chair, so getting in and out is easier.
Easy for Parents
Pop off the quick-release rear wheels and the frame weighs just 12 lbs. Folded, it measures about 12″ wide by 25″ high by 27″ deep, so it fits in most car trunks along with everything else a family brings along. The nylon fabric wipes clean and can be washed, which every parent will appreciate.
Choosing a Size
Measure across the widest part of your child’s hips while seated and add about 1″ to 2″. If that is 12″ or less, choose the 12″ seat; if it is up to 14″, choose the 14″. Both have a 13″ deep seat. Children grow quickly, so we are happy to help you choose a size that leaves a little room without being too wide.
