• Width: 20 inches (507 mm)
• Depth: 7.9 inches (200 mm)

Yes, the Ferno Transcend Stair Chair is equipped with shock-absorbing wheels designed for superior mobility and smooth rolling over varied surfaces.

It features two sets of wheels:

• Front Wheels: 5-inch, swivel, shock-absorbing wheels.
• Rear Wheels: Larger 8-inch, shock-absorbing wheels.

This setup helps ensure smooth transitions and movement across rough terrain and carpeting.

Yes, the Ferno Transcend Stair Chair is designed with a contoured patient seat to provide comfort during transport.

Yes, the integrated track system is the key safety feature of the Transcend Stair Chair. It is engineered to:

• Support the patient’s full weight during descent, ensuring smooth and controlled movement.
• Significantly enhance patient safety on stairways.
• Reduce the physical strain and mitigate the risk of injury for the operating personnel.

Yes, the Ferno Transcend Stair Chair is engineered to balance high durability with a manageable weight, specifically designed to minimize physical strain on caregivers during emergency transport.
