The Medline Excel Extra-Wide Bariatric Wheelchair weighs 60 pounds. It’s built to support folks up to 500 pounds, according to the manufacturer.

Despite its weight, it folds down to a pretty compact size: 32.5”L x 13”W x 36.5”H. This makes it easier to store and transport, which is great if you need it for daily use or travel. Plus, it has push-button adjustable footrests that swing to the side—more handy features for storing it away without much hassle.

Our research shows that people really appreciate the folding feature. Someone even mentioned that it "folds up very easily"—so even though it’s a bit on the heavier side, the folding convenience definitely helps out.

Just keep in mind, at 60 pounds, it's heavier than most standard wheelchairs. If you need to lift and store it often, make sure you're comfortable with the weight. It can be tricky in tight spaces or if you're new to handling heavier mobility aids. It's a good idea to consider if you have the strength or help to manage it smoothly.

So, while the Medline Excel Extra-Wide Bariatric Wheelchair is heavier, its thoughtful design—with easy folding and adjustable footrests—makes it practical for many users.
