A stair-climbing wheelchair comprising deformable main rear wheels comprising lockable suspension elements and front supporting wheels comprising lockable suspension elements is disclosed herein. The wheelchair may operate in at least two modes, a standard mode and a stairs mode. In standard mode, the wheelchair may operate similar to an ordinary basic wheelchair, with suspension elements locked and rigid. In stairs mode, the suspension elements may be activated and the rear wheels may be deformable to readily negotiate an uneven surface, wherein the front suspension elements may be elongated to provide balance while climbing. The operating principles behind the functionality of the device disclosed herein may also be applied to other devices used to negotiate stairs, such as devices used to move heavy appliances on stairs.
