## Description

The Drive Medical Lightweight Expedition Folding Transport Wheelchair is engineered to deliver dependable mobility support for users who need a comfortable, portable, and easy to operate transport solution. Constructed with a durable yet lightweight aluminum frame, this transport chair weighs just 19 lb, making it significantly easier to lift, maneuver, and store than traditional wheelchairs. Despite its light frame, it supports up to 300 lb and provides a stable seating platform with padded armrests and supportive padding designed to enhance comfort during daily outings, medical appointments, and travel. Large 12 inch rear wheels ensure smooth mobility over a variety of surfaces, allowing caregivers or companions to push with less effort. The curb assist feature positioned near the wheels offers an added advantage when navigating uneven terrain or lifting the front wheels over small obstacles. This design reduces strain on the caregiver while improving the user’s overall experience. The integrated loop lock hand brakes allow companions to control and secure the chair safely. With a simple downward push, the brakes lock the rear wheels, keeping the chair in place without requiring the rider to bend or reach in awkward positions.

We offer a wide range of products to support your family’s needs, from mobility to bath safety, from patient care to personal care.

Review: Great wheelchair! - This wheelchair is FANTASTIC! It's not a WC for an individual to use on their own but so great for a care giver to use for their patient. It's lightweight (easy on the back) making it easy to fold up and put in the trunk. Footrests are easily attached and detached (lock in place). The toe 'ledge' at he back allows gentle tipping of the chair to easily get over bumps. The safety belts make my friend feel more secure. Hand brakes work extremely well. Does not budge when in locked position. That has no storage bag/compartment is the only thing I'd change about it. From a different company I ordered an attachable bag for the back of the chair for storage. PERFECT transport Wheelchair!
Review: Easy to assembly, Lightweight, Easy to Fold, Highly Recommended - I bought this chair for my dad, he is with Alzheimer and has loose a lot of mobility and it has made such a difference. It’s lightweight, easy to fold, and very comfortable for him to sit in. We use it both at home and when we’re out, now we can take a walk while he enjoy it, we can go out and eat with him, and it’s been sturdy and reliable. It gives him more independence, and it’s easy for us to transport. It came pre assembled and took less than 5 min to have the chair ready to use. We are very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, portable chair.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the best bang for your buck!
*by J***I on July 6, 2026*

This wheelchair is great quality, easy to use, lightweight, comfortable (although I highly recommend a gel seat pad) it folds pretty small so it stores easy. This has reopened my adventure/travel side. I'm able to do all the things that I used to do before illness/body issues took that away. This lightweight wheelchair reopened those opportunities for me. If only it came in pink..
