A rigid chair you can fine-tune for years to come

Your needs aren't fixed, so your wheelchair shouldn't be either. Whether you're moving up from a folding chair or you've pushed a rigid frame for years, the Quickie Argon² gives you a responsive aluminium rigid chair that can be adjusted again and again as your body, strength and lifestyle change.

That makes it a sensible long-term choice. We set it up for you at the start, and the balance point, seat height and camber (the inward tilt of the wheels) can all be fine-tuned later, so the chair keeps fitting you rather than you having to put up with it.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Fully adjustable set-up
  Centre of gravity and rear seat height can be changed as you go, so the chair can grow with you — reassuring if your condition or confidence is changing.

• Frame from 8.9 kg
  Light enough to lift into a car without a struggle, which saves wear on your shoulders over thousands of transfers.

• Dynamic axle system
  Lets us fine-tune how the chair rolls and turns, so it feels stable when you want stability and nimble when you want to move.

• Camber from 0° to 4°
  Angling the wheels in a little makes the chair steadier on turns and puts the hand rims in a more natural place to push.

• Tension-adjustable back
  Shape the backrest to your spine for better posture and comfort through a long day.

• Fixed or swing-away leg rests
  Pick the option that suits how you transfer in and out of the chair.

• Angle-adjustable footplate
  Rest your feet at a comfortable angle, helpful if your ankles or knees are stiff.

• Crash tested
  Can be used as a seat in a suitably adapted vehicle.

Who it suits best

• People moving from a folding chair to their first rigid frame
• Experienced users who like to tweak their set-up
• Anyone whose needs may change over time

Worth knowing before you buy

As a rigid chair, the Argon² doesn't fold in half the way a folding chair does. If you need a chair that folds flat for a small car or shared storage, a folding active wheelchair will suit you better. Push handles aren't standard, so tell us if a carer will sometimes push you.

Questions customers ask us

Can it be adjusted after I've had it a while?
Yes. That's one of its biggest strengths — the balance point, seat height and camber can be changed as your needs change.

Can I try one first?
Yes. We don't keep every model in stock, so please call first and we'll check — if we haven't got one in, we can usually arrange a demo model. We can also visit you for a free home assessment.
