DO the handles Fold down? As in for storing the chair in a small trunk can you fold down the handle bars (Where the carer pushes I mean)? Many thanks!

Yes, at the base of each handle bar are two flat shaped knobs that you push downward, releasing handles to fold.

No, the handles do not fold down. The whole chair folds in half, the foot rests come off, and are easily put back on. I don't know how small your trunk is, but it will not fit in the back of our VW Beetle, but fits fine a standard car.

No they do not. But it does fit easily in my 2013 Honda accord trunk.I would never buy this chair again the wheels are plastic and get no grip on carpet or over threshold plate or up ramps. The screw heads are all ruff with burrs I have gotten cuts from the seat screws.

No the chair basically fold in half. I can get it in the trunk of my 2013 Toyota Camray with no problem.

So sorry but they do not. But what makes it easy is that the foot rests do come off and they are very easy to put back on. I am the user of the wheelchair and I can do this myself. Hope this helps.

No. The only part designed to fold is the handle. Though, I never figured out how to get it to fold. Supposedly, there is some sort of release mechanism.

We gave the chair away so I don't have it anymore, but I don't think (remember) that the back folded down. The main advantage with it was its weight -- very light. And it did fit in the trunk of a Civic and the back seat (actually on the seat) of a mid-size car.

The handle does not fold down. I love it though I get a lot of comments on how cute the stroller is for my kitties. It fits fine in the back seat of a car.

We break it down to fold down and into our van easily. Although we have taken only the wheels and handle off and put in on top of our folded flat van seat. It folds down and comes apart very easily, just a minute or two.

Hello, I had the hardest time figuring out how to close it myself. You need to stand behind the chair with one hand on the handle. Pull down the black cord underneath the chair and at the same time push the handle forward and the chair will fold up. I hope my instructions help you.

The handle does fold down. I use the iron by my sewing machine to press quilt blocks. It works perfectly.

No it does not, but when folded there are carrying handles. The handles also assist in folding the chair. This chair doesn't fold up to fit into a sleeve that you carry around your shoulder like those cheaper chairs. I don't have exact dimensions, but a close guess is it folds up to about a 2' x 2' square (less the back rest) approximately 4" thick.

Actually, the product description for the green says that the handle bars fold down. The teal one doesn't say this, but someone asked it as a question and everyone said they don't fold down.

Yes, it has a lever that folds the handle down. I have never used it, so don't know how easy it might be though. Probably really easy!!

Yes. The handlebars fold down easily. But you need to use an Allen wrench to remove the seat. Not hard, but if you don't have one with you, you are out of luck.

The back doesn't fold down, you fold it by pulling up on the middle of the seat and it folds flat so that the arms and wheels are together. The foot rests are super easy to put on and take off, but you don't have to take them off to fold it, the foot rests flip up. It's very easy to fit into a trunk, it's very light, I think it weighs 14-15 lbs, but very tough. I used it for my elderly aunt who weighed 95 lbs. I think it's rated for 250 lbs. I would highly recommend it. The cup holder is a nice little extra that you can easily take off if you don't want it. It also has a seatbelt on it.

No, there isn't an easy way to take off the handle. And no, it doesn't fold down for easy transport. I just put it in my trunk as pictured above to take to the park.

It does not collapse or fold for transporting in vehicle. I don't have it with me now to see how easy it is to take it apart for transporting and then reassembling it at destination. For general comments I found the chair a little flimsy/shaky.

It does not fold down, but I have no problems getting in my trunk as is. If you have a small trunk, there is a pin and the steering column slides right out easily.

I am not aware of a fold down back, Im sure it doesnt have that. The leg supports come right off, I can place the chair ina trunk of an average car. It weighs about maybe 40 lbs. Its not too bad to lift. Nice chair, we have used it all year.

I am not sure of your question? but if you mean, can it be attached in some way to carry along, I think it might be able to be attached in some way, because it is so lightweight. The back folds down easily...where you see the handles, there are tabs when you push and that entire back can fold down to make the chair easier to store or load. But I cannot state with certainty you can carry it on an electric wheelchair as we have not done so and don't have one. Just have a heavy-weight regular chair and this is a second chair.
