The Freedom Chair A09 is a folding bariatric electric wheelchair made to balance strength, comfort and everyday practicality. It folds quickly for transport yet supports heavier users without feeling bulky. With a wide 20" seat, dual brushless motors and an expandable battery system, the A09 is built to cope with gentle outdoor surfaces as well as indoor manoeuvres.

Key benefits

  • Supports heavier users – carries up to 227 kg (35.75 stone) for greater freedom and confidence.
  • Quick to fold – folds down for easy storage and to fit in a car boot.
  • Comfortable wide seat – a 20" seat gives more room for longer journeys or daily use.
  • Practical range options – standard 20 km travel distance with the option to add batteries for longer trips.
  • Stable outdoor use – dual brushless motors and pneumatic tyres help tackle grass, gravel and ramps.

Who is this for?

  • Adults who need a bariatric electric wheelchair with reliable folding and transport features.
  • Carers or family members who need a robust, easy-to-store mobility solution for indoor and outdoor use.
  • Anyone who wants a wide, comfortable seat and the ability to extend range with extra batteries.

Product details

The A09 uses a reinforced aluminium folding frame that balances durability with portability. It weighs about 40 kgs, yet folds down so it can be moved into a car or stored at home without specialised equipment. The folding action is designed to be straightforward so carers or users can reduce the chair’s footprint quickly when space is limited.

Comfort is a priority with a 20" (508 mm) wide seat and matching 20" seat depth to give generous support for everyday sitting. The chair’s layout and dimensions allow for easier transfers and steady seating during longer outings. The front and rear pneumatic tyres help absorb bumps, making journeys on grass, gravel and uneven pavements more comfortable.

Performance comes from dual 400 W brushless motors, providing steady power and good torque for gentle slopes and outdoor surfaces. The A09 reaches a top speed of 8 km/h (5 mph), which suits most pedestrian environments and keeps control predictable. Direction and speed are controlled with an intuitive joystick controller for precise manoeuvring in tight spaces.

Safety features include an electromagnetic braking system to give reliable stopping power on slopes and uneven ground. Ground clearance and turning circle are set to make indoor navigation practical while still coping with small outdoor obstacles. The chair’s compact overall width helps it pass through standard doorways and tighter corners.

Battery and range are flexible: the standard setup uses a 24 V, 20 Ah battery giving around 20 km (12.5 miles) per charge. The system can accept up to two additional batteries to extend the range to approximately 40 km or 60 km, depending on the number of batteries fitted. Charging and battery care are important for consistent performance, so follow the supplied user guide for charge times and safe handling.
