Advice from the showroom floor
Will the Phantom Transit Wheelchair suit you?
The Phantom Transit suits someone who is pushed by a partner or carer, whether for the odd outing or most days of the week. It is built for indoors and outdoors, carries up to 21 stone, and its armrests adjust for both height and angle, a real plus when you are sitting for a good while.
Seat width matters, so come and sit in it at a showroom. Whoever will be pushing can try the brakes, fold the chair and lift it, to be sure it suits you both. Call ahead and we will have one ready.

The Phantom Transit Wheelchair in detail
Armrests that move to suit you are the Phantom's standout feature. Press a button and they change angle, and they alter in height too, so the person in the chair can rest their forearms where it feels natural. Drive designed this transit chair for anything from occasional trips to frequent use, inside and out.
What you get
- Push-button armrests with angle and height adjustment
- Padded two-tone seat and back upholstery that can be removed
- Swing-away footrests with an ergonomic release handle, adjustable without tools

Folding and transport
A half-fold mechanism and quick-release footrests bring the chair down to a tidier shape for the car boot or a cupboard. Trying the fold and the lift in a showroom is the surest way to judge how it will slot into your routine.
