Detailed product description
The Invacare Action 1R is a purpose-built manual transit wheelchair that stays simple and practical for everyday use. With compact 12" rear wheels, it’s easier to manage during carer-assisted pushes and to manoeuvre when loading into a car. The chair comes ready configured and aims to reduce hassle for both the user and the person assisting them. This folding transit wheelchair has been rigorously crash-tested to ensure it can be safely used inside an accessible vehicle.
This model is available in six seat widths, ranging from 15" to 20", therefore, allowing the user to select the perfect size for their needs. The frame allows for quick adjustments so you can adapt the chair to individual needs.
Transfers and day-to-day handling are made easier thanks to the swing-away armrests with adjustable arm pads that offer two positions for comfort. Safety features include push-to-lock brakes to secure the chair in place and easy-release swing-away footrests that remove or pivot away for transfers. The chassis also folds down to a compact form for storage or transport, and you can opt for anti-tippers if you want added protection on slopes.
Maintenance and parts are straightforward because the Action 1R is compatible with the wider Action range, making it easier to find replacement components or upgrades. The design focuses on practicality: straightforward controls, removable footrests and a folding frame help keep ownership simple.
