What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent: the title and transit-wheel feature specify 12.5-inch solid rear wheels, while the general description mentions 24-inch wheels and elsewhere says 51 cm (24-inch) composite mag wheels. Weight is listed as both 15 kg and 18 kg. Confirm the selected CS1142T configuration and dimensions before purchase. Vehicle-seat suitability is a manufacturer claim. Follow the vehicle and wheelchair instructions for any such use.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

People who need an attendant-propelled chair for indoor and outdoor use.
Buyers who value folding storage, solid tyres and footrests that can be moved or removed for transfers.
Users whose seat needs match the listed 45 cm width, 49 cm height and 40 cm depth, and whose weight is within the stated 115 kg recommendation.

Less suited to

People seeking a self-propelled wheelchair. The described CS1142T is a transit model.
Buyers who need a particularly light chair to lift frequently, or who require dimensions or capacity beyond the listed figures.

Aggregate ratings are mixed despite a generally favourable overall score: the distribution includes a substantial one-star segment as well as many five-star ratings. With no written feedback supplied, these figures do not explain why customers rated the chair as they did. Consider the reported ratings cautiously, and prioritise confirming the wheel configuration, weight and fit for your intended use.

Frequently asked questions

Is this wheelchair self-propelled?

The CS1142T is identified as a transit model, with 12.5-inch rear wheels described as aiding manoeuvrability for a carer or attendant. The listing discusses a separate self-propel version, which is not this model.

Can the footrests be adjusted or removed?

The listing says the plastic footrests are height-adjustable, can swing away for transfers and can be removed for storage or transport.

Are the tyres puncture-proof?

The feature text describes all-round solid polyurethane tyres as puncture-proof and requiring limited upkeep. The wheel-size and type details elsewhere in the listing conflict, so confirm the exact supplied configuration.

What is the stated weight capacity?

The listing gives a maximum weight recommendation of 115 Kilograms. Check this against the user's needs and the product information for the selected configuration.
