Aidapt VP178
Our verdict
The lowest seat in our ranking and a consistent 136 kg limit. Small wheels and Aidapt’s own instructions keep it to smooth pavements and indoors.
Best for: shorter users who need a low seat, mostly indoors and on smooth pavements.
Not for: kerbs and broken paving.
Based on the maker's published documents. We have not physically tested this product.

We have not physically tested these products, and no maker or retailer can pay to be listed or placed higher. Not sure what suits you? An occupational therapist or your local wheelchair service can advise.
