More about transport wheelchairs
As their name suggests, these wheelchairs are designed for transporting users and are not intended as full time solutions due to the lack of support and comfort.
The key difference with transport wheelchair sis the wheel size and frame design. As they are intended to be used for shorter journeys every aspect of their design is kept small and simple. Transport wheelchairs are designed to be compact to allow them to be folded with ease and transported in the smallest possible space.

Seat design is also a prime consideration as support and comfort are important. Padding is important but also adds to the bulk of the chair so needs to be kept to a minimum in a transport wheelchair.
