Feather Power Chair -- Ultra-Lightweight Folding Power Wheelchair - 250lb Capacity
The lightest power wheelchair available. 33 lbs total. Folds in seconds. Airline approved. Battery and charger included.
The Feather Power Chair weighs 33 pounds. That is not a typo. Most power wheelchairs weigh 150 to 300+ pounds and require freight delivery, a vehicle lift, or disassembly into multiple pieces just to transport. The Feather folds into a single piece in seconds and fits in the trunk of a sedan.
It folds down to just 13 inches wide and 28 inches tall -- small enough for a car trunk, a coat closet, or an airplane. The removable lithium-ion battery is airline approved, weighs just 2 pounds, and delivers up to 11 miles of range on a single charge. Top speed is 4 mph.
This is built for people up to 250 lbs who need portable, lightweight powered mobility for travel, appointments, outings, and daily errands. Battery, charger, seat and back cushions, swingaway footrests, anti-tippers, and seatbelt all included.

How Does it Fold?
Most power wheelchairs need to be taken apart into multiple heavy pieces before you can put them in a car. The Feather folds into one piece in seconds:
- Fold the backrest down flat
- Collapse the seat upward from the middle
- Done -- the entire chair is now 13 inches wide, 28 inches tall, and 29 inches deep
To unfold, reverse the process. No tools. No disassembly. No loose parts to keep track of.
At 33 lbs folded, most people can lift it into a car trunk, an overhead closet, or hand it to a flight attendant. Two yellow levers near the rear wheels put the chair in freewheel mode so a caregiver can push it like a manual wheelchair when needed.
Who is this For?
This chair is built for you if:
- You weigh up to 250 lbs and need a power wheelchair you can take with you
- You travel frequently and need something airline approved
- You want to put it in your car trunk without a vehicle lift or ramp
- You need powered mobility for appointments, shopping, outings, and errands
- You want the simplest possible purchase -- everything included, ships fast via ground
This may not be the right fit if:
- You weigh over 250 lbs (see our Vision Sport with Lift at 300 lbs, Vision Super at 400 lbs, or Atlantis at 600 lbs)
- You need a primary everyday wheelchair for all-day indoor use (this is designed for portability, not 8+ hours of daily seating)
- You need a seat lift to reach counters and tables (see our Vision Sport or Vision Super with Lift)
- You need heavy-duty outdoor capability on rough terrain (see our Silverado Extreme scooter)
- You need extended range beyond 11 miles per charge

FAQ
How much does it actually weigh? 33 lbs total with the battery installed. The battery itself weighs about 2 lbs and is removable. Without the battery, the chair weighs approximately 31 lbs.
Can I take it on an airplane? Yes. The removable lithium-ion battery is airline approved. Always check with your specific airline before traveling, as individual airline policies may vary. You will typically need to remove the battery and carry it in the cabin.
How far does it go on one charge? Up to 11 miles under optimal conditions. Real-world range depends on rider weight, terrain, speed, and temperature. If you travel frequently, consider adding a spare battery ($250) so you always have a backup.
Is it comfortable for all-day use? The Feather has 1 inch seat and back cushions and padded flip-back armrests. It is comfortable for outings, appointments, and errands. For all-day primary seating (8+ hours daily), a larger power wheelchair with thicker cushioning and more postural support would be more appropriate.
What is the weight limit? 250 lbs. This is a firm limit -- the lightweight frame is engineered for portability, not heavy-duty use.
Can someone push it like a manual wheelchair? Yes. Two yellow levers near the rear wheels put the motors in freewheel mode, allowing a caregiver to push it manually.
Does the joystick come on the right or left side? Right side is standard (FCP18-BK). Left side is available (FCP18-BK-L). Let us know your preference when ordering.
