    The So Lite Wheelchair is a revolution in wheelchair design. Its military-grade magnesium frame makes it ultra-lightweight which translates to being easier to lift for transport, easier for caregivers to push, and easier to manage when you're on your own. Take that innovative lightweight design and add an industry-leading list of safety and comfort features and you've got a wheelchair package worthy of leading the pack.

    We built this lightweight wheelchair with safety in mind. The So Lite Wheelchair features rear anti-tipping wheels to prevent tipping backward, front caster wheels for easy turning, and a dual braking system to give the user and caregivers full control over the chair's braking.

    We've designed the So Lite Wheelchair specifically to be ultra lightweight. By itself, the frame of the So Lite Wheelchair is only 16.5 lbs. Fully assembled and ready to go, the So Lite Wheelchair weighs in at 27.8 lbs.

    The So Lite Wheelchair easily folds down to a reasonable 33" x 28" making it perfect for sliding into the back seat or trunk of most vehicles.

    The So Lite Wheelchair is capable of supporting a person weighing up to 250 lbs.

    Your So Lite Wheelchair will be ready to go within minutes of opening the box, and assembly is completely tool-free! You’ll just need to slide the leg rests and anti-tip wheels into place, gently flip up the backrest, and put the cushions in the appropriate spots. It's just that simple!

    Yes! It's specifically designed to be incredibly easy to fold and the removable rear anti-tip wheels and front legrests make the So Lite Wheelchair a breeze to transport wherever you may need to go or store as needed.

    Yes! The So Lite Wheelchair features an innovative dual braking system ... rear hand brakes for caregivers to use while pushing and front locking brakes to prevent rolling.

    Folding the So Lite Wheelchair is so simple! Start by folding the footrests up then, while grasping the front and rear edge of the seat, pull the seat upward. Finally, press the two armrests inward toward each other.

    The So Lite Wheelchair is covered from top to bottom with a one-year limited warranty. The frame and crossmembers of the wheelchair are covered for the life of the product to the original owner. You can find out more information about the warranty in the User Manual & Warranty package.

      This wheelchair is a game changer for patient/caregiver!

      This chair is the best thing we have discovered!! The chair is so much lighter to push, patient manageability increased, loading in the vehicle with a swing of a couple of fingers! It's worth the price!!

      Best I have tried.

      I bought 3 similar products to use when traveling (flying). This is the best I've tried. Fairly sturdy and lightweight. Folds easily for a car trunk or checking on a plane.

      Amazing Freedom!

      I found this product in a local mobility store 5 months ago. It had arrived the day before and they were not familiar with it. It is the best money I have ever spent. It has been life changing and has brought me so much freedom. It is much easier for me to lift and load into the trunk of my small Toyota Corolla than a light weight rollator. I can only walk a few feet. It does not seem to weigh nearly as much as described. I can roll up to the trunk, pop off the footrest and tuck them in the trunk. I lift myself up and sit on the bumper, turn the back of the chair toward me and flip the seatback down. When reaching over the low seat back, and resting the bottom of my forearms on the seatback, I can grab the loops on the side of the seat and 'pop it' to fold, effortlessly. I then take 1 hand and spin the chair sideways, put my foot out and gently lean the chair against my foot, (which takes the outer wheel off the ground a tad) and i can easily push it closed with 1 gentle push down with my hand. I can lift it and turn it into the trunk of the car without ever getting off the bumper. I also sit on the bumper to remove it from the trunk and I can easily turn, grab it and slide it out with little effort. I do not remove wheels. This is all done from a sitting position. I takes less than 30 seconds. The most difficult thing for me is walking the few feet from car door to trunk without falling. This chair is very light weight and very well made. A nice extra is that it looks so…
