The Ugo Esteem Heavy Duty Bariatric Transit Wheelchair is designed to make life easier, safer and more comfortable for larger users, without the hefty price tag. Built with strength and stability in mind, this wheelchair supports users up to 39 stone, so you and your attendant can have complete peace of mind. Whether you’re off to a hospital appointment or just moving around the house, you can rely on this bariatric wheelchair to do the job every time. The weight of this heavy-duty wheel chair is reasonable.
What sets this wheelchair apart is the quality at an affordable price. It has a strong steel double cross-braced frame that keeps the chair solid and secure under pressure, even on rough ground. Reinforced welded joints and solid tyres mean it can withstand daily use, making it a great long-term option. Despite its strength, it folds down to just 13 inches wide so can be stored in a hallway cupboard or the boot of a car with ease. It has so many features which can be found at twice the price of this strong wheelchair.
Comfort hasn’t been forgotten either. The padded seat and backrest are covered in easy-clean nylon and have added cushioning for longer journeys. Height-adjustable armrests with a forward sliding option give extra support when needed and the swing-away footrests make getting in and out of the chair much simpler. Calf straps are included as standard for extra leg support, and side panels protect clothing and belongings from the rear wheels.
The wheelchair has attendant brakes for better control and safer stops. Quick-release 12” rear wheels with parking brakes make it easier to transport and store. The solid front castors give a smooth ride on most indoor and outdoor surfaces, so you’ll have a stable experience every time.
Available in silver frame with seat widths 20”, 22” or 24”, this wheelchair is suitable for a wide range of users. The corresponding maximum weight capacities of 25 stone/160kg, 28 stone/180kg, and 39 stone/250kg mean you can choose the model that’s right for your weight range. Available to shop optional extras like Elevated Leg Rests and Anti-Tip Wheels are available if you want extra comfort or safety.
In short, this heavy duty transit wheelchair provides great value, practical design and a strong build – all backed by a 1-year frame warranty. Whether for daily use or short-term recovery, it’s a smart purchase that delivers comfort, strength and peace of mind.
Elevated Leg Rests are an optional extra with this wheelchair (used to elevate legs). Please use the drop-down menu above to add them to your order. Foot rests come as standard with this model.
Please note that the Anti-Tip Wheels are not fitted to the wheelchair and will need to be fitted by you, the customer, if you select them as an additional option.
