The Major Elite Special Needs Pushchair is a supportive and reliable mobility solution designed for older or larger children who need assistance when out and about. Whether a child is able to walk short distances or requires a secure seated option for longer outings, the Major Elite offers comfort, stability and practicality for families, carers and school environments.
Engineered with a strong aluminium frame, it provides dependable support while still being lightweight enough for everyday use. At around 7 to 8 kilograms depending on the footplate option, it remains easy to lift, fold and store. The pushchair performs best on smooth urban surfaces such as pavements, shopping centres and indoor school corridors, giving families the confidence to navigate busy settings with ease.
The Major Elite typically suits children aged around 2 to 8 years, although suitability is based more on their measurements than age. Many children will reach a point where the leg length becomes the limiting factor rather than the weight capacity of 50 kilograms. We always recommend checking the measurements to ensure the right fit for posture and comfort.
To further support each child’s needs, the Major Elite can be customised. It is available in three colour options and includes a range of accessory bundles that provide weather protection, comfort and extra storage.
Colour Options
- Charcoal and Red
- Soft Blue and Navy
- Black
