Description
The Ezee Life CH1093 is an 18 in (46 cm) folding wheelchair with a steel frame, for a rider who propels or a companion who pushes.
What does it do and how does it work?
- Steel cross-brace frame at 36 lb (16.3 kg), with 24 in (61 cm) rear wheels and hand rims.
- Solid flat-free tires on the rear wheels and the 8 in (20 cm) front casters.
- Seat height is 19.5 or 17.5 in (49.5 or 44.5 cm), which lets a shorter rider reach the floor with the feet.
- Removable padded armrests and swing-away footrests; a lever wheel lock on each rear wheel.
- PVC vinyl upholstery, black on the black frame; elevating legrests are optional.
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- An adult up to 300 lb (136 kg) who needs a basic chair for outings, short trips or a spare.
- A 20 in seat at the same limit: the CH1094. Over 300 lb: the CH1091.
- Mostly pushed: a transport chair. Long days seated: a lightweight chair suits better.
Will it fit?
- Seat 18 in wide by 16 in deep (46 by 41 cm); back 16 in (41 cm).
- Overall width 26.5 in (67 cm); length 41 in (104 cm) with footrests and 31 in (79 cm) without; height 34 in (86 cm).
- Footrests adjust from 15 to 19 in (38 to 48 cm) on 60 degree hangers; set them so the knees are level and the whole thigh is supported.
- Measure hip width, hips to knee, and knee to heel in shoes.
Using it day to day
- To fold, flip up the footplates or remove the footrests, then pull up at the front and back of the seat; push down on the seat frame to open.
- Press the push-pin and lift each armrest out with two hands; check that it locks before moving.
- Swing the footrests aside before a transfer, and keep the footplates at least 2 in (5 cm) off the ground.
- Pull the brake handle back to lock and push it forward to release; lock both before getting in or out.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
- The rider and anything carried must total no more than 300 lb (136 kg).
- No cushion, seat belt or anti-tippers are included; elevating legrests are optional.
- Warranty: 1 year on manufacturing defects, materials and workmanship for the original buyer; wear, accidents and misuse are excluded. See the Warranty tab.
Which version should I choose?
- Seat width: 18 in is this model; the 20 in is the CH1094.
- Legrests: swing-away footrests are standard; elevating legrests with calf pads are optional.
How does it compare?
- CH1094: a 20 in seat at the same 300 lb limit.
- Rebel: fold-down back and quick-release wheels.
- Standard wheelchairs: the full range.
