The Whirl is a narrow, self-propelled wheelchair designed for straightforward everyday use and easy turning in tight spaces. It folds down, has quick-release rear wheels and removable armrests for easier storage, transport and access to tables, and it’s crash-tested for use in wheelchair-adapted vehicles.

Key benefits

  • Easy to manoeuvre – the exceptionally narrow frame and compact design help you move confidently around confined rooms and busy areas.
  • Comfort for longer use – padded upholstery, calf supports and a supportive backrest help keep you comfortable whether using the chair occasionally or full time.
  • Travel and storage friendly – half-folding backrest and quick-release rear wheels let the chair become compact for a car boot or tight storage spaces.
  • Simple access at tables – removable desk-style armrests make it easier to sit close to worktops, dining tables and desks.
  • Built for safety and durability – puncture-proof tyres and a sturdy steel frame give reliable day-to-day use, with crash testing for vehicle compatibility.

Who is this for?

  • Someone who needs a narrow, easy-to-turn wheelchair for indoor living.
  • A car user who needs a chair that folds and has quick-release wheels for boot storage.
  • A full-time wheelchair user looking for a simple, robust chair with padded seating.
  • Carers who need a chair that’s straightforward to lift, store and fit into vehicles.

Detailed description

The Whirl Self-Propelled Wheelchair combines a narrow frame and compact design, so it moves easily where space is limited. Its sturdy steel frame gives durability for everyday use while keeping the chair slim enough to pass through tighter doorways and busy rooms. Available in a choice of seat widths, the Whirl is adaptable to different users while remaining simple to push and steer.

Comfort focuses on practical features you’ll notice each day. The chair has padded upholstery and calf supports to help steadiness and comfort while sitting. Removable armrests allow closer access to tables and make lateral transfers easier, and the half-folding backrest helps you reach items behind the chair and reduces the overall package for storage.

When travel and handling matter, the Whirl offers useful options. The self-propelled version includes quick-release rear wheels so the chair becomes lighter to lift and more compact for a car boot. It folds to a compact size for transport and has puncture-proof tyres to reduce the chance of breakdowns outdoors. The chair is crash-tested for use in wheelchair-adapted vehicles, and comes with a one year parts warranty and a two year frame warranty for added reassurance. The chair weighs 14.5 kg and supports users up to 115 kg.
