Description
The Ezee Life CH1091 is a 22 inch heavy duty folding wheelchair from Canadian Med Healthcare. Westin Healthcare sells it and delivers it for homes in Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. This is a standard wheelchair with 24 inch rear wheels and pushrims. The person in the seat can self-propel, or a caregiver can push from the handles.
Ezee Life's current CH1091 page lists a 22 inch by 18 inch seat, a 19.5 inch seat height, a 400 lb weight capacity, and a 43 lb steel frame. Front casters are 8 inches. Tires are solid and flat-free. Armrests and footrests come off. Elevating legrests are optional.
Who this chair is for
This chair is for a person who needs a wider than average seat and a 400 lb rating, and who may still self-propel on 24 inch wheels. Families usually call us when an 18 or 20 inch wheelchair is too narrow, or when a transport chair with small rear wheels would leave the person unable to wheel themselves.
If you only need a companion-pushed chair with small rear wheels, look at a transport chair such as the Drive 22 inch BTR22 instead of this CH1091. If you want another everyday self-propel frame, see the Drive Cruiser X4 and the rest of our standard wheelchairs.
- A 22 inch seat and a 400 lb rating
- Someone who may self-propel, or who may be pushed
- Short trips, loaner use, or a basic folding chair at home
Design and build
The CH1091 is a steel folding frame. Pull up on the seat to fold it for the car or a closet. The rear wheels are 24 inches with pushrims, which is how the person self-propels. Front casters are 8 inches. Tires are solid, so there is no inner tube to flatten.
Armrests come off for a side transfer. Footrests swing away and come off. The user manual also covers optional elevating legrests if those are on the order. Upholstery is embossed PVC vinyl. Ezee Life describes this model as a practical chair for short excursions, basic transportation, and institutional loaner use, not as an all-day ultra-light rigid frame.

Frequently asked questions
Is the CH1091 a transport chair or a standard wheelchair?
It is a standard wheelchair. Ezee Life's own page titles it "CH1091 Standard 22 inch Wheelchair" and lists it with the standard models, not with the transport chairs (those are CH1041 to CH1044). The 24 inch rear wheels and pushrims are the giveaway. A transport chair has small rear wheels and is pushed by a companion only.
Who pushes this chair?
Either person can. The user can self-propel on the 24 inch wheels, or a caregiver can push from the handles. Ezee Life writes that this model provides independent or dependent mobility.
Will this chair fold into a car trunk?
The steel frame folds. Ezee Life prints 34 by 12 by 36 inches in the box and 43 lbs for the chair plus 3.6 lbs for the footrests. That is heavier than a 21 lb transport chair. Two people and a larger trunk or hatch make the lift easier. Come into a Brampton or Toronto store if you want to try the fold on your vehicle.
How should the 22 inch seat fit?
Measure the person's hip width and leave a little room on each side. Ezee Life lists 22 inches wide by 18 inches deep. If 22 inches is still tight, ask us about a 24 inch CH1092. If 22 inches is too wide, look at the 18 or 20 inch Ezee Life standard chairs.
What is the weight capacity?
Ezee Life lists 400 lbs for CH1091. Ignore a 300 lb figure if it still appears on an old spec line. If the person is near 400 lbs, tell us before we book delivery so we can confirm the chair is the right class.
Why 24 inch wheels instead of 12 inch transport wheels?
24 inch wheels with pushrims let the person wheel themselves and roll more easily over small thresholds. They make the chair wider, heavier, and harder to lift than a transport chair. Choose 24 inch wheels when independence matters. Choose a transport chair when a companion will always push and you want a lighter lift.
What is the warranty on the CH1091?
One year against manufacturing defects, faulty materials, and workmanship, for the original purchaser. Wear, accident, misuse, and improper assembly are not covered. Westin Healthcare processes the claim. Details are on our service and repairs page.
Does funding help with this wheelchair in Ontario?
Some Ontario routes can help with mobility equipment, and eligibility depends on the person's situation and assessment. Call (905) 451-7743 or use the funding page before you buy. We will point you to the right path for your case.
Can I rent a wheelchair before I buy?
Westin Healthcare rents chairs for short-term needs. See the transport wheelchair rental page and the folding wheelchair rental page. A rental chair may be a different model than the CH1091. Call (905) 451-7743 to check what is on the floor.
What is included with CH1091?
You get the 22 inch steel folding wheelchair with removable armrests and swing-away footrests. Choose Legrest switches those hangers to elevating legrests when you need them. A cushion is not listed as included on Ezee Life's page.
Why does one label say transport and another say standard?
The chair itself is standard. Ezee Life, the 24 inch wheels, and the live slug all say standard. If an older name on a form still says transport, treat that as a label error, not a second product.
