Q: Why your Hi-Fortune manual wheelchairs are more expensive than other regular aluminum wheelchair?
A: We are committed to making the lightest manual wheelchairs. So we use magnesium alloy material as the frame of wheelchairs. It’s more difficult than ordinary aluminum wheelchair in the manufacturing process. We are also the first seller of magnesium wheelchairs on Amazon.
Q: Why chose the magnesium alloy instead of regular aluminum alloy .Any advantages of the magnesium alloy?
A: Magnesium is the lightest structural metal currently available in the world. Its approximately 33% lighter than aluminum, 50% lighter than titanium, and 75% lighter than steel. It has higher strength, less deformation, good damping performance and long service life. It’s environmental friendly, pollution-free and completely recyclable.
Description
The Hi-Fortune Magnesium Manual Wheelchair is easy to maintain and is extremely lightweight. At under 22lbs, it can be easily lifted and great for use when travelling as it folds up small enough to fit in most vehicles. Drive wheels also feature a quick release, making travel and storage easier. Assistants also benefit from dual integrated hand brakes for consistent and reliable control of the chair operator. Swing-away leg rests allows the operator to quickly transfer to and from a seated position. The included seatbelt can be used for less stable operators who may be at a fall risk.

We have used and worn out 3 transport chairs in 10 years, and no argument we use them hard since her regular chair is heavy and requires a lot of break down to haul. This chair by far is THE BEST transport chair we have bought, and also the most expensive, but you get what you pay for. This is not only a well constructed chair, it is well designed, something the other transport chair companies don’t seem to understand. All…
Now THAT’S a transfer chair! Now THAT’S a transfer chair! I orderedthis from Amazin and it arrived in a box completely assembled except the red pads for seat and backrest. They too seconds to attach using the velcom strips on the pad. All described features were present cluding including the attached swing away footrests_did I ever tell uou about the time I got all the wat to Europe and forgot my footrests? This chai ris no surprise more than twice as good as the transfer chairs costing half as much. The crossbar and…
Well made and attractive. For my wife. Yes it’s more expensive but a quality product that medical professionals have commented on. Looks great and easily folds up. Seems like it will last forever.
