Overview
Three seat heights and 34 lbs. to lift

Built for real life

What stands out

●
Three seat heights, no tools
Quick-release axles pull out by hand and drop into three positions, setting the seat at 20", a hemi 19" or a triple 18". The same move changes the seat angle and takes the rear wheels off for the car.
●
34 lbs. and it folds
An aluminium and carbon steel frame with a chip-proof black finish. Take the rear wheels off and it is a one-person lift into a boot.
●
Adjusts to the rider
Armrest height sets from 10" to 14", the wrap-around back adjusts for height, and the front casters adjust for height and angle.
●
Seat extension included
A 2" tool-free extension takes the seat depth from 16" to 18", so a taller rider gets thigh support without a different chair.
●
Arms that flip back
The padded arms swing backward and lift off, which clears the side of the chair for a transfer to a bed or a car seat.
●
Built for a custom seat back
The frame is made to take custom seat backs and accessories, so the chair can be fitted properly rather than replaced when needs change.
The Hieline Take

The Chariot IV earns its price on adjustment. The rear wheels pull out by hand into three axle positions, which sets the seat at 20", 19" or 18" and changes the seat angle with it, so a rider who pushes themselves can get that angle right rather than living with one setting. The armrests run 10" to 14", the back adjusts for height, the casters adjust for height and angle, and the frame takes a custom seat back, so the chair can be re-fitted as needs change instead of replaced. It weighs 34 lbs. before the rear wheels come off, which makes it a realistic one-person car lift. The trade is 300 lbs. of capacity at every width and a price above the steel chairs, so if the rider is only ever being pushed from A to B the Chariot II or III does that job for less.

Straight talk

Is it right for you?

A good fit if you

  • weigh up to 300 lbs. and need a 16", 18" or 20" seat
  • push the chair yourself and want the seat height and angle set to you
  • load the chair into a car and want the rear wheels to come off by hand
  • need the armrest height and the back height adjusted to fit

Look elsewhere if you

  • weigh more than 300 lbs., at any seat width
  • need a seat wider than 20"
  • need a chair that reclines or tilts
  • want the cheapest chair that will do, because the Chariot II and Chariot III cost less
