A mobile object of the invention includes: a moving base including a front wheel and a rear wheel; a seat having a seating surface; and an armrest located outward of the seating surface in a width direction of the mobile object. The armrest includes: a supporting part supported on the moving base; a body part supported by the supporting part; and a grip protruding from the body part. The armrest is configured so as to be changeable between the position of use in which a user seated on the seating surface can hold the grip with the arm positioned upward of the armrest, and the lift-up position in which the grip is positioned upward of the position of use. The grip in the lift-up position is located outward in the width direction of the mobile object with respect to the grip in the position of use.

A removable under-seat compartment for folding seats that may be used as part of a stair lift and method is disclosed. A compartment bracket having rails is attached to underside of the folding seat that pivots from a horizontal position to a vertical position. The compartment has flaps that engage with rails of the bracket to enable the compartment to enable a user of the stair lift to force the compartment to slide in and out from under the seat when the user is seated on the horizontally positioned folding seat. A stop is provided on the bracket to prevent the flaps on the compartment sliding out of the rails when the seat is pivoted to the vertical position.
