The Sturdy is one of our most popular folding powerchairs, thanks to it's outstanding looks and thoughtful features that make it a reliable tool for everyday use and travelling abroad. Featuring quick-release, high-capacity batteries that are still airline friendly as standard, all-round suspension via rear shocks and special honeycomb tyres, the sturdy is a stable, solid and robust chair that's still incredibly flexible and portable.
Folding powerchairs are a difficult product to get right and while many of our online competitors are focused on selling and sourcing the cheapest-made options available, the Sturdy shares the same frame and components as our top-end Ultra Comfort Elite, designed to meet the needs of real powerchair users - a quality difference we're sure you'll both feel when driving, and see in the premium design once it's in your hands.
