Availability: Ships from EnhDme
Full Support, From Armrest to Footrest
Some users need more support along the full length of the arm, not just a shorter desk-style rest, and the widest available seat for a more comfortable fit. The Medline Guardian K1 Wheelchair with full-length arms and a 20" seat is built for exactly that, giving the forearm complete support from front to back, while keeping the dual-axle, hemi-height adjustable design and smooth-rolling solid tires that make the K1 line dependable for everyday use.
Removable full-length armrests make transfers easier when needed, and elevating leg rests help relieve pressure and reduce swelling during longer periods of sitting. Comfortable, easy-care vinyl upholstery wipes clean easily, making this a practical choice for settings where hygiene and quick cleanup matter. All of this comes wrapped in a durable hammertone-finished frame built for consistent daily use.

This is the most feature-complete configuration at the widest 20" seat width — full-length arms for complete forearm support, elevating leg rests for pressure relief, and easy-clean vinyl upholstery. It's a strong fit for users who need the extra seat room and want every comfort feature the K1 line offers. As with the other 20" options, this is a standard-duty chair (300 lb capacity), not bariatric-rated, so the wider seat is about fit rather than a higher weight allowance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose vinyl over nylon upholstery?
Vinyl is generally easier to wipe clean, making it a practical choice for facility settings or anyone who prioritizes quick cleanup over fabric feel.
Is this chair bariatric-rated?
No, this is a standard-duty chair with a 300 lb weight capacity. The 20" width offers more seat room, but it is not a bariatric-rated model.
What's the difference between full-length and desk-length arms?
