Additionally, some wheelchairs come with a swing-in/away removable footrest that's simple to use and allows users to be closer to tables or desks.

It is important to ensure whether the chair you're looking at has features that will meet your needs. You'll want to consider things like whether the chair has an adjustable or fixed leg rest. Fixed leg rests are more secure for the user but swing-away ones are useful when moving from a sitting position to a standing position. The weight of the chair will also be dependent on the size of the wheel. Larger rear wheels are commonly used in self-propelled wheelchairs because the occupant can reach the wheel's rims to control the chair while sitting. If you're looking for a chair which can be pushed from behind, then a transit style wheelchair with smaller rear wheels will be the best choice.

Check the brake system of the wheelchair's brake system. Some wheelchairs come with attendant brakes on the back handles, so that caregivers can easily reduce speed or lock wheels to stop the chair from rolling. They may also come with handbrakes on the push handles for additional security and peace of mind. It is important to know the weight capacity of the wheelchair. Some wheelchairs are constructed of steel which is a strong material, but it is also heavy. Others are made from aluminum which is lighter and compact.
