Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the Winfar Deluxe Drop Back Wheelchair, including travel use, wheel removal, and everyday practicalities.

How do the quick-release wheels work?

The 24" rear wheels click out with a simple push-button release — no tools needed. They reattach just as quickly, making the wheelchair compact for car boot storage in seconds.

What does the drop-back handle do?

The drop-back handle folds down to reduce the overall length of the wheelchair, making it easier to fit into tight car boots or store in smaller spaces.

How heavy is this wheelchair?

The Deluxe Drop Back Wheelchair weighs 15.8kg. With the quick-release wheels removed, it's significantly lighter and easier to lift into a car.

What is the weight capacity?

The wheelchair supports up to 100kg.

Are the footrests removable?

Yes. The swing-away footrests detach completely for easy transfer and to reduce width when navigating tight spaces.

Does this wheelchair fold?

Yes. The wheelchair folds flat for storage and transport, in addition to the quick-release wheel removal.

Are the rear wheels puncture-proof?

No — the rear wheels are pneumatic (air-filled), which gives a smoother, more comfortable ride but requires occasional tyre pressure checks. The 6" front castors are solid and puncture-proof.

Is this wheelchair suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The pneumatic rear wheels absorb bumps on uneven outdoor surfaces, making it more comfortable for outdoor use than solid-tyred alternatives.
