A simple, reliable attendant‑propelled wheelchair for occasional use at home and out and about. It folds down small for easy transport and storage and is light enough to lift into a car boot. Padded upholstery, full‑length armrests and detachable swing‑away footrests help make transfers and journeys more comfortable for both the user and the carer.

Key benefits

  • Lightweight and easy – at about 11.5 kg it’s simple to lift and carry for short trips.
  • Folds compact – the foldable frame reduces storage space and fits easily in many car boots.
  • Comfortable seating – padded upholstery and full‑length armrests aid comfort on longer outings.
  • Low maintenance wheels – puncture‑proof tyres reduce the need for roadside repairs.
  • Safe for passengers – attendant‑operated cable brakes and a lap belt help carers feel more in control.

Who is this for?

  • Someone who needs a lightweight, attendant‑propelled chair for occasional use around the home or on short trips.
  • Carers who want an easy‑to‑fold wheelchair that is straightforward to handle and manoeuvre.
  • People with limited mobility who need a padded, supportive seat and easy transfer features such as swing‑away footrests.

Detailed product description

The Escape Lite uses a lightweight aluminium frame that folds quickly to make lifting and storing easier. At around 11.5 kg it’s one of the lighter attendant‑propelled chairs, and the frame collapses to a compact folded width so it can be placed in a car boot or stored at home. This makes the chair practical for day trips, short breaks and for carers who need a portable option.

Comfort is provided by padded upholstery and full‑length armrests, while the detachable, swing‑away footrests allow easier transfers in and out of the chair. The chair sits on puncture‑proof tyres, so you do not need to worry about inner tubes on typical surfaces, and the attendant‑operated cable brakes and lap belt give added confidence during stops and transfers.

The Escape Lite is offered in several seat widths to suit narrower or wider needs and comes in a range of colours. It is intended for indoor and outdoor use on relatively even surfaces and is a suitable lightweight option when occasional mobility support is needed. Some wider variants are rated for higher maximum user weight and certain versions include a two‑year frame warranty — please check the specific variant details when ordering.

  • Lightweight foldable aluminium frame
  • Padded upholstery with full‑length armrests
  • Detachable swing‑away footrests for easier transfers
  • Attendant‑operated cable brakes
  • Lap safety belt included
  • Puncture‑proof front castors and rear wheels

Customer Questions
Q. Is an 18" seat width suitable for someone who weighs about 66kg?

A. Yes, you can easily change the height of the footrests to suit you.
Q. Is it crash tested for ambulance use?
A. No, this wheelchair is not crash tested for use in an ambulance. For crash-tested options, please see our crash-tested wheelchair range.
Q. Is it light and easy to lift into a car?
A. It weighs 11.5 kgs and is designed to fold easily, so most people who can lift that weight should find it straightforward to put in a car.
