Drive Cruiser III Wheelchair: Under 36 lb With a Seat Depth That Actually Adjusts
A Fit You Can Dial In, Not Just Pick a Size For
Most wheelchairs lock you into whatever seat depth came with the size you ordered. The Drive Medical Cruiser III is different, with built-in seat rail extensions and extendable upholstery that adjust seat depth from 16" to 18" on the same chair, so you get a real fit without needing to size up or down.
Light Enough to Handle, Built for Easy Transfers
At under 36 lb excluding front riggings, the Drive Cruiser III is genuinely manageable to lift and load. Removable flip-back arms make side transfers easier, and a dual axle lets you drop the seat to hemi-level when needed. It's a solid pick among our full manual wheelchairs lineup for anyone who wants adjustability without extra weight.
