Description
Medline’s lightweight transport chair does the same job as the Drive transport: a caregiver pushes, the chair folds, and nobody pretends it is a self-propel ultralight. It is a fair quote when a family has been given the Medline name by a pharmacy or a discharge sheet.
We match the seat width and the published capacity of the current code. A transport chair that is too narrow is miserable on a winter coat, and a transport chair used as a full-time seat is the wrong product entirely.

We confirm the current manufacturer specification for the size you need before the order is placed. A different seat width, wheel, or option changes the weight.
If the person sits in it for hours, ask about a cushion and about whether a self-propel chair is the real order.
A wheelchair has to match the person. Weight capacity includes the rider and anything carried on the chair. Complex rehab chairs should be sized with an occupational therapist or seating clinician. Figures on this page come from the manufacturer’s published materials and can change. The order form for your configuration is the one we follow.
Configured chairs are built after you approve the quote. Once a manufacturer has started a made-to-measure frame, that build usually cannot be cancelled. Boxed retail chairs are different, and we say so on the quote.
