Need a lightweight wheelchair that makes tilting and transport easier? The Karman Healthcare VIP-515-TP Tilt-in-Space Reclining Transport Wheelchair is one of the lightest folding tilt-in-space chairs on the market, weighing only 34 lbs without the footrests and supporting up to 250 lbs.
Built with 14" rear wheels for smooth rolling and easier caregiver handling, this reclining wheelchair helps users maintain better posture and relieve pressure during longer use. Its tilt-in-space feature allows for safe weight redistribution, making it a dependable option for daily mobility needs at home or on the go.

The VIP-515-TP uses an intelligent 0–35° center-of-gravity weight shifting system that tilts the user’s position to help reduce the risk of pressure sores. By shifting the user’s weight smoothly, this feature promotes better pressure management and helps caregivers reposition the user with less effort. The center-of-gravity tilt also adds stability while reclining, giving users reliable support when they need to stay in one position for extended periods.

The VIP-515-TP comes equipped with flip-back armrests and height-adjustable desk-length arm pads, making transfers and table access more convenient for both users and caregivers. The removable footrests with secure heel loops provide extra leg support and help keep the user’s feet safely in place while in motion or tilted.
The VIP-515-TP is designed with a foldable frame that makes it simple to store and transport when not in use. Its lightweight build and quick-fold mechanism allow caregivers or family members to fold the wheelchair in seconds, making it easier to fit into a car trunk or closet. This space-saving design is ideal for travel, home storage, or transferring the chair between different locations
