Push Mobility beach access expert review
The Sandpiper beach wheelchair is a smaller version of the Sandcruiser beach wheelchair. Whilst there are limited options for children or small people on the market - the Sandpiper doesn't just win by default, it really deserves it's place as the most popular option in it's category.
Parents are caregivers alike love the portability, additional support, adjustability and safety options that come with the Sandpiper. The high quality construction of this chair means most owners can privately resell this chair and upgrade to a larger Sandcruiser or floating beach wheelchair when the time is right.
Whilst the chair isn't designed to float, it does offer an excellent experience on the beach and in shallow waters. To gain the longest life out of the fabric, we recommend a wash down after each use and storing the fabric out of direct sunlight.
