The Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair (Drive Medical model 700-830) is a premium lightweight folding transport wheelchair designed to be pushed by a caregiver. It weighs 21 lbs, supports up to 300 lbs, and has 12-inch rear wheels that roll more smoothly than the small wheels on basic transport chairs. At Motion Care Mobility, you can see it in person in our Concord showroom or order it with Canada-wide shipping.

The XC adds the features caregivers ask for most: flip-back armrests for easier transfers, handgrip brakes within easy reach, and a footrest that locks out of the way. It still folds flat enough for a car trunk.

What is the Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair?

The Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair is a lightweight, folding wheelchair for trips with an attendant. It combines a 19-inch-wide padded seat, an upright seating posture, and larger rear wheels with premium bearings. Drive Medical built it for people who want a step up in comfort and control from a basic transport chair.

Unlike a self-propelled wheelchair, a transport chair is pushed by someone else. That keeps the frame light and the fold compact.

Who is the Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair best for?

The Airgo Comfort Plus XC is best for adults who can sit upright and need a caregiver to push them over longer distances. It suits seniors, post-surgery recovery, and people with limited stamina from arthritis, heart or lung conditions, or neurological conditions such as MS. The 300 lb capacity also suits larger riders who need more than a standard 250 lb chair offers.

Caregivers tend to choose it for four reasons:

• Smoother ride: 12″ rear wheels with premium bearings roll over thresholds and uneven pavement more easily.
• Easier transfers: detachable flip-back armrests let the rider slide in from the side.
• Better control: brake levers sit on the handgrips, so the caregiver can slow or stop without reaching down.
• Easy storage: the back folds down and the chair folds to about 10.5 inches wide.

If you are not sure which transport chair fits, call us. We will ask a few simple questions about where and how you will use it, then recommend the right one.

What features does the Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair have?

The Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair is built around comfort for the rider and control for the caregiver. Each feature below comes standard.

• 12″ rear wheels with premium bearings: a smoother, quieter roll than smaller wheels.
• Handgrip-mounted brake levers: caregivers can brake without bending down.
• Dual locking rear wheels: they hold the chair steady during transfers.
• Detachable flip-back armrests: they make transfers easier and let the rider pull up to a table or desk.
• Swing n’ Lock footrests: they adjust without tools and lock to the side of the frame when not in use.
• Heel loops and seat belt: included for added safety.
• Ergo-form handgrips and angled handlebars: they fit the hand and give the rider more back room.
• Upright seat-to-armrest height: it supports a natural seated posture.
• Fold-down back and backrest pouch: the chair stores compactly, and the pouch holds small items.

What are the Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair specifications?

The Airgo Comfort Plus XC Transport Chair weighs 21 lbs and holds up to 300 lbs (136 kg). Its seat is 19 inches wide and 16 inches deep, with a 19-inch seat height. Use the table below to compare it with your space, your car, and your rider.

How does the Airgo Comfort Plus XC compare with the Airgo Ultra Light?

The Airgo Comfort Plus XC is the better choice for comfort, transfers, and higher weight capacity, while the Airgo Ultra Light Transport Chair is the better choice when the lowest weight matters most. The XC weighs 21 lbs and holds 300 lbs. The Ultra Light weighs about 16 lbs and holds 250 lbs.

The XC also adds 12″ rear wheels, handgrip brakes, and flip-back armrests. If you mostly lift the chair into a trunk and take short trips, the Ultra Light may be enough. If you travel over rougher ground or help with frequent transfers, the XC is worth the upgrade.

Is a transport chair or a wheelchair better for me?

A transport chair is better when a caregiver will do the pushing, and a self-propelled manual wheelchair is better when the rider wants to move independently. If the rider needs to travel alone, consider a manual wheelchair instead. For riders who want to drive themselves with a joystick and still travel light, our lightweight power wheelchairs are worth a look.

How do I choose the right size and try the Airgo Comfort Plus XC in person?

Choose the XC when the rider’s hips fit comfortably within a 19-inch seat and the rider is under 300 lbs. Visit our Concord showroom, and we will have you sit in the chair, check the footrest height, and show you the fold. A good fit matters, so we take a few minutes to get it right.
