Although the Strongback is not as light as the Feather Chair, the Strongback weighs in at only 25 lbs. which is way lighter than 90% of all wheelchairs. What we and our customers love most about the Strongback is that both the seat and the back are Ergonomic! as they mimic the natural curvature of the seat and back of the body. Our back and neck muscles weaken as we age and sit in a wheelchair. The Strongback Lightweight wheelchair’s back curves support the thoracic portion of the spine and it supports the lumbar curve that will keep the user comfortable and upright.

Another benefit of the Strongback is that it's designed with the rear of the seat tilted down that prevents the user from falling out and promotes an upright posture. Something that no other wheelchair does.

The Featherweight Travel Wheelchair - 13Lbs. als folds down into a very compact package so you can easily take it with you wherever you need it.

There are a few drawbacks to all transport chairs. The Featherweight Travel Wheelchair - 13Lbs. has four small wheels making it a transport chair and not great to go over large bumps for extended periods of travel. It also has no back or seat support so after some time the user will slouch and sitting on a sling seat for so long can cause pain and lead to ulcers unless you enhance the seat with a strong cushion.

If you are going on a short trip there is no other transport chair we would recommend.
