Lightweight Wheelchair Portable
Can a lightweight (canvas type) “portable”/foldable wheelchair be used full time? Pros and cons?
Instead of buying 2 (one heavy one and one light one for outings), what are your thoughts about buying just one light one? The wheelchair would be for a sr citizen having difficulties walking. Thanks.
Full-time means different things to different people. Can they manage holding onto furniture at home? Is most of the use going to be inside stores/malls/church, or on even pavement (like parking lots.) Than the lightweight one would be OK.
But if full-time you mean all day long at home and on grass or dirt or rough sidewalks – than no. Lightweight chairs do not provide good support for a person to sit in it more than a few hours at a time and they are not designed for rougher terrains.
