Letters From Our Therapists

The Thomashilfen Swifty and Swifty 2 are compact folding, light-weight, crash-tested adaptive strollers for children with special needs. Their slender profile and exceptional maneuverability are appealing to all families on the go, but they are especially attractive to city dwellers who rely on public transportation or taxis to move from place to place. Both Swifty models combine the firm, comfortable support provided by a solid aluminum seat pan and back with a rugged aluminum frame. Durable without excessive weight, they can be folded quickly and easily and stowed in any trunk. Both Swifty models also come standard with a Bus Tie-Down Kit comprised of 4 tie down loops to be used in a vehicle equipped with 4 SAE J2249-compliant wheelchair tie down assemblies. *

Designed for children who have mild to moderate positioning needs, the Swifty and Swifty 2 come standard with an H-Style Chest Harness with Integrated Hip Belt which provides support for children who need minimal anterior support to maintain their trunk in an upright position. One size adjusts to fit all users. Upgrades to chest support and pelvic support are available in the accessory section. Chairs are set at a fixed tilt,15 degrees for the Swifty and 20 degrees for the Swifty 2. The seat back is adjustable from 90 degrees (upright) to 115 degrees recline controlled by a single, simple lever. Seat depth on the Swifty is easily adjustable without tools to accommodate growth. The Seat Depth on the Swifty 2 is fixed. An optional Seat Minimizer Kit can be purchased to offer even greater growth potential to both push chairs. The flip-up footplate is height adjustable. Push Bar is angle adjustable for caregiver’s comfort and the one step foot operated brake was designed for ease of use.

The Swifty accommodates children up to 77 lbs. (kg). The Swifty 2 accommodates children up to 110 lbs. (50 kg) and 59.1in. (150 cm) tall. Due to its low weight and swivel front wheels, this adaptive stroller is particularly maneuverable despite the high maximum load capacity. Please refer to Size Chart Tab below for detailed technical specifications for each model. Many optional accessories are available in the accessories section to customize postural support needs specific to your child.
