Product Details
Karman KM-5000 Reclining Wheelchair – Ultra-Lightweight Comfort & Versatility
Discover the Karman KM-5000, a fully reclining transport wheelchair engineered for those who need premium comfort, pressure relief, and maximum adjustability. With a recline range of 90° to 163°, this ultra-lightweight wheelchair is ideal for long-term use, travel, or recovery—offering exceptional performance at just 36 lbs.
Maneuverability / Portability
The KM-5000 is built from 6061 T-6 aircraft-grade aluminum, giving it a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio. It folds easily for transport or storage, and flat-free 24” mag wheels combined with 8” front casters provide effortless mobility across indoor and outdoor terrain. With anti-tippers and wheel locks, you can count on dependable stability wherever you go.
Power / Performance
While not powered, the KM-5000 excels in manual performance. With an adjustable recline from upright to nearly flat (90° to 163°), this chair provides personalized positioning for comfort, circulation, and rest. Swing-away elevating leg rests and padded armrests add flexibility to daily use, while the breathable upholstery ensures long-term wear and airflow.
Comfort / Control
Designed with the user in mind, the KM-5000 includes full-length padded armrests, an adjustable head pillow, and flame-retardant breathable nylon upholstery. The reclining mechanism offers smooth transitions and customizable angles to help users remain comfortable throughout the day, whether resting or on the move.
