WHY THE POLY-FLY MAKES SENSE FOR REAL LIFE Most families end up needing two wheelchairs a self-propel chair for around the house and a transport chair for outings and storing both takes space, costs more, and means you always have to remember which one you brought. The Poly-Fly was designed to replace both. The quick-release 24" wheels snap on and off in seconds no tools, just a button on the wheel hub, so you can change modes whenever your day calls for it. The aluminum frame is what keeps it at 34 lbs strong enough to support up to 250 lbs comfortably, light enough to lift one-handed into a trunk. The deluxe back release folds the backrest flat for storage in tight spaces hotel closets, car trunks, behind couches. And the swing-away footrests pivot cleanly out of the way every time you stand up. This is a chair that goes where you go vacations, family visits, doctor's appointments, the grocery store, the cruise ship, the museum.

Many lightweight wheelchairs sell anti-tippers as an add-on these come with the chair.

The wheel-removal process is genuinely easy, but take a minute with the manual the first time — once you've done it once, you'll be able to switch modes in your sleep.FAQsCommon questions before ordering
(versatility • travel • fit)How does the conversion between wheelchair and transport chair actually work?Each 24" rear wheel has a small button on the center hub. Press the button, pull the wheel straight off — it comes off in your hand in about three seconds. Press it back on, listen for the click, and you're back in wheelchair mode. The 8" small transport wheels stay on the frame at all times (they're tucked in close to the chair), and they take over the rolling job whenever the big wheels are off. The whole switch — both wheels — takes about fifteen seconds.How much does it really weigh?With the 24" rear wheels on (wheelchair mode), the TR18 weighs about 34 lbs. Remove the big wheels and you're left with the chair plus small transport wheels — roughly 26 lbs. For comparison, most standard folding wheelchairs run 40–50 lbs. This is one of the lightest folding wheelchair/transport combos available.Will the 18" seat fit me or my family member?The seat measures 18" wide × 16" deep, which is the most popular adult seat size. It's typically a great fit for hip widths of 14"–16". To measure, sit comfortably and measure across the widest part of the hips, then add 1–2" for clothing and shifting room. Smaller users may prefer the 16" TR16 model; larger users may want the 20" TR20. Call us at (713) 695-4939 with measurements if you'd like a hand deciding.Can I take this on an airplane or cruise ship?Yes — the Poly-Fly is well-suited for travel. For airlines, you can typically gate-check it at no charge under the Air Carrier Access Act (it folds to a compact 12" wide and the back folds flat for handling). For cruise ships, the lightweight aluminum frame and compact fold make it manageable for cabin storage and onshore excursions. Many of our customers buy the Poly-Fly specifically as a travel chair. Just remember to check with your specific airline or cruise line for their wheelchair policies in advance.Will it fit in a sedan trunk?Yes. Folded width is just 12 inches, which fits comfortably in any sedan trunk, SUV cargo bay, or behind the driver's seat. For even more compact storage, take off the 24" rear wheels first (they come off in seconds) — that drops the bulk significantly. The deluxe back release also folds the backrest flat for the slimmest possible storage.Is the 250-lb weight capacity enough?The Poly-Fly is rated to support up to 250 lbs comfortably. If you're approaching or above that limit, the chair won't be the right choice — the lightweight aluminum frame and slim build aren't designed for heavier weight loads. For users over 250 lbs, we'd recommend a standard or bariatric wheelchair. Call us at (713) 695-4939 and we'll help match you to the right chair.Why is it called "Flyweight" in transport mode?Without the large 24" rear wheels installed, the chair drops to about 26 lbs total — Drive Medical calls this configuration a "Flyweight Transport Chair." It's genuinely light enough that one person can lift it easily into a car, store it in a closet, or carry it short distances. The name is about how it feels to lift, not how it rolls.Can the user self-propel with the 24" wheels?Yes — that's exactly what the 24" wheels are designed for. They have hand rims so the user can push themselves along, just like on a standard manual wheelchair. The chair handles smoothly on indoor floors, sidewalks, and most pavement. For longer distances or rough terrain, a power chair or scooter is usually a better fit.Is it good for someone recovering from surgery?Often, yes — it's a popular choice for surgical recovery. In the early weeks when you need to be pushed (post-op, less strength), use it as a transport chair. As you regain strength, snap on the 24" wheels and self-propel for as much or as little as feels right. The chair adapts to your recovery, instead of you having to choose between two different chairs at different stages. Many physical therapists recommend convertible chairs for exactly this reason.What kind of warranty comes with the chair?Drive Medical includes a Limited Lifetime Warranty on the aluminum frame — meaning the structural components are covered for as long as you own the chair. Wear components (upholstery, tires) carry shorter coverage. The lifetime coverage is unusual at this price point and reflects the confidence Drive has in the build.Want to talk it through?

The 8" small transport wheels stay on the frame at all times (they're tucked in close to the chair), and they take over the rolling job whenever the big wheels are off. The whole switch — both wheels — takes about fifteen seconds.How much does it really weigh?With the 24" rear wheels on (wheelchair mode), the TR18 weighs about 34 lbs. Remove the big wheels and you're left with the chair plus small transport wheels — roughly 26 lbs. For comparison, most standard folding wheelchairs run 40–50 lbs. This is one of the lightest folding wheelchair/transport combos available.Will the 18" seat fit me or my family member?The seat measures 18" wide × 16" deep, which is the most popular adult seat size. It's typically a great fit for hip widths of 14"–16". To measure, sit comfortably and measure across the widest part of the hips, then add 1–2" for clothing and shifting room. Smaller users may prefer the 16" TR16 model; larger users may want the 20" TR20. Call us at (713) 695-4939 with measurements if you'd like a hand deciding.Can I take this on an airplane or cruise ship?Yes — the Poly-Fly is well-suited for travel. For airlines, you can typically gate-check it at no charge under the Air Carrier Access Act (it folds to a compact 12" wide and the back folds flat for handling). For cruise ships, the lightweight aluminum frame and compact fold make it manageable for cabin storage and onshore excursions. Many of our customers buy the Poly-Fly specifically as a travel chair. Just remember to check with your specific airline or cruise line for their wheelchair policies in advance.Will it fit in a sedan trunk?Yes. Folded width is just 12 inches, which fits comfortably in any sedan trunk, SUV cargo bay, or behind the driver's seat. For even more compact storage, take off the 24" rear wheels first (they come off in seconds) — that drops the bulk significantly. The deluxe back release also folds the backrest flat for the slimmest possible storage.Is the 250-lb weight capacity enough?The Poly-Fly is rated to support up to 250 lbs comfortably. If you're approaching or above that limit, the chair won't be the right choice — the lightweight aluminum frame and slim build aren't designed for heavier weight loads. For users over 250 lbs, we'd recommend a standard or bariatric wheelchair. Call us at (713) 695-4939 and we'll help match you to the right chair.Why is it called "Flyweight" in transport mode?Without the large 24" rear wheels installed, the chair drops to about 26 lbs total — Drive Medical calls this configuration a "Flyweight Transport Chair." It's genuinely light enough that one person can lift it easily into a car, store it in a closet, or carry it short distances. The name is about how it feels to lift, not how it rolls.Can the user self-propel with the 24" wheels?Yes — that's exactly what the 24" wheels are designed for. They have hand rims so the user can push themselves along, just like on a standard manual wheelchair. The chair handles smoothly on indoor floors, sidewalks, and most pavement. For longer distances or rough terrain, a power chair or scooter is usually a better fit.Is it good for someone recovering from surgery?Often, yes — it's a popular choice for surgical recovery. In the early weeks when you need to be pushed (post-op, less strength), use it as a transport chair. As you regain strength, snap on the 24" wheels and self-propel for as much or as little as feels right. The chair adapts to your recovery, instead of you having to choose between two different chairs at different stages. Many physical therapists recommend convertible chairs for exactly this reason.What kind of warranty comes with the chair?Drive Medical includes a Limited Lifetime Warranty on the aluminum frame — meaning the structural components are covered for as long as you own the chair. Wear components (upholstery, tires) carry shorter coverage. The lifetime coverage is unusual at this price point and reflects the confidence Drive has in the build.Want to talk it through?
