Karman 19 lb. Ultra Light Transport Chair

This is Karman’s LT-2017 ultra-light aluminum transport chair. Figures below come from this store’s listing. Karman’s official warranty table lists an LT-2000 series, not LT-2017 by that exact number, so no warranty is stated here.

Overview

  • 19 lb without footrests
  • 250 lb capacity
  • Seat and backrest both fold
  • Detachable swing-away footrests
  • Official Karman product video
Details

Seat and back both fold

The powder-coated aluminum frame folds, and so do the seat and the backrest, which is what keeps the packed size small for a car or closet. Padded armrests are fixed. Swing-away footrests come off, have heel loops, and the plates move to match leg length. Toggle locks on the rear casters keep the chair still for a transfer. Casters are 8 by 1 in with rubber tires. The sling is breathable nylon that Karman describes as flame-retardant.

Listed figures

  • 19 lb without footrests. Capacity 250 lb.
  • Back 19 in; overall height 40 in; the seat sits 19.5 in up with 8 in arm pads; depth is 16 in.

A clinician should confirm this chair is a good match. For questions, call 1-877-861-8000 on weekdays between 9 AM and 6 PM Pacific.

Questions about this product

How light is the LT-2017, and what can it carry?

This listing puts the chair at 19 lb with the footrests off and rates it for 250 lb. The back is 19 in and overall height is 40 in; the seat sits 19.5 in up, armrests are 8 in high, and seat depth is 16 in. It is lighter than Karman’s LT-1000-HB, which is listed at 23 lb without footrests.

How small does it pack?

Seat, back, and the powder-coated aluminum frame all collapse, so the packed chair is meant for a car or a closet. That double fold is the LT-2017’s main packing feature compared with chairs that only drop the back. A clinician should confirm that this product is appropriate. For questions, call 1-877-861-8000 on weekdays between 9 AM and 6 PM Pacific.

What arms, footrests, and locks does it use?

Padded armrests are fixed. Swing-away footrests come off, have heel loops, and the plates move to match leg length. Toggle locks on the rear casters keep the chair still for a transfer. Casters are 8 by 1 in with rubber tires.

Why is no warranty listed on this page?

Karman’s official warranty table names an LT-2000 series (one year on the frame, six months on parts) but does not list LT-2017 by that exact model number. We do not assume those terms apply, so no warranty is stated here. Ask us if written terms arrive with the chair.

Is there a manufacturer video?

Karman Healthcare’s official YouTube channel has a video titled “LT-2017 Ultra Lightweight Transport Wheelchair.” This is a companion-pushed chair. A clinician should confirm it is a good match. For questions, call 1-877-861-8000 on weekdays between 9 AM and 6 PM Pacific.
