Shower Chair/commode Pvc 18 W/double Drop-arms & Casters

Patients and caregivers managing mobility challenges in the bathroom need reliable support that transitions seamlessly between showering and toileting.

• Threaded stem casters (3-inch diameter, 1.25-inch width) enable smooth rolling repositioning between shower and toilet areas
• 18-inch internal seat width accommodates users comfortably while fitting standard bathroom doorways and tight spaces
• PVC construction resists corrosion from moisture, soap residue, and cleaning chemicals for long-term bathroom use
• 300-pound capacity supports bariatric users and provides stability during transfers and seated hygiene tasks

FAQs

Q: Can this chair roll over a standard shower threshold?

A: The 3-inch casters handle low thresholds up to 0.5 inches. For higher thresholds, lift the front wheels slightly during entry, or consider a threshold ramp for smoother access.

Q: How do the drop-arms operate during transfers?

A: Each arm unlocks by pressing a release button, then swings downward or removes entirely. Lock arms back into upright position before user sits to prevent tipping.

Q: What is the seat height from the floor?

A: The source description does not specify seat height. Measure from floor to top of seat upon assembly, or contact the manufacturer for precise dimensions before purchasing.

Q: Does the chair work over standard toilets?

A: Yes, when positioned as an over-toilet commode, the frame straddles most residential toilets. Verify your toilet dimensions (typically 14-15 inches wide) fit within the 18-inch internal width.

Q: How do I clean the commode bucket between uses?

A: Remove bucket, empty contents, rinse with hot water, then spray with disinfectant. Allow to air-dry before reinserting. Replace bucket liner daily for odor control.
