If you’re choosing a wheelchair, here’s a secret tip to help you along: we know which wheelchair the celebrities prefer – especially for temporary use.

This week, Zayn Malik, British singer and songwriter, made the news when he was spotted in a wheelchair for a mysterious injury that only lasted long enough to create some hype on the news – and long enough to let us know that the K1 Basic Wheelchair from Medline is the way to go!

The K1 Basic Wheelchair, clearly not that basic if it was chosen by Zayn, is a long-time bestseller from Medline which offers top quality at a reasonable price.

Its attractive gray powder finish, high quality welding, comfortable upholstery and easy-to-use features combine to make this manual wheelchair a great choice.

Other great features includes its 300 lb weight capacity, overall weight of only 39 lbs. and small front wheels for easy maneuvering, even in tight spaces. With all these features and more (including the fact that it’s fully adjustable, easy to fold and unfold and available in a full range of sizes), it’s no wonder Zayn Malik chose this wheelchair for the short but famous time he spent off his injured foot.
