Medline Bariatric Aluminum Shower Chair with Back - 650 lb Capacity, Height Adjustable 16.5-20.5 inch

Heavy-Duty Bariatric Shower Seating Solution for Enhanced Safety and Comfort

The Medline Bariatric Aluminum Shower Chair is engineered to provide exceptional support, stability, and comfort for individuals requiring bariatric-capacity bathing assistance. With an impressive 650-pound weight capacity, this heavy-duty shower chair delivers the strength and durability needed for larger users while maintaining a lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum construction that stands up to daily use in wet bathroom environments.

This premium bariatric bath bench is specifically designed to support mobility-challenged individuals who experience difficulty standing for extended periods in the shower or safely sitting in a standard bathtub. The integrated backrest provides crucial additional support and security, helping users maintain proper posture and balance throughout their bathing routine. The generous 17-inch seat depth offers an ample seating surface that ensures comfort and stability, accommodating a wide range of body types while reducing pressure points during use.

Adjustable Height for Personalized Comfort and Safety

The height-adjustable leg system allows caregivers and users to customize the seat height from 16.5 inches to 20.5 inches, making it easy to tailor the chair to individual user needs, bathroom configurations, and transfer requirements. This versatile adjustment range ensures optimal positioning for safe transfers from wheelchairs, walkers, or standing positions, while also accommodating various bathtub and shower floor heights. Each leg features a simple push-button adjustment mechanism that locks securely into place, providing reliable stability once the desired height is achieved.

Reinforced Construction for Maximum Durability

Built with a robust, heavy-duty reinforced aluminum frame, this bariatric shower chair combines exceptional strength with rust-resistant properties essential for long-term performance in humid bathroom environments. The reinforced design specifically addresses the structural demands of bariatric users, incorporating strategic reinforcement points that distribute weight evenly across the frame to prevent bending, warping, or structural failure. Unlike standard shower chairs, this bariatric model is purpose-built to handle the increased stress and weight requirements of heavier users without compromising safety or longevity.

Enhanced Safety Features for Peace of Mind

Safety is paramount in bathroom environments, and this shower chair incorporates multiple features to minimize risk. Slip-resistant rubber pads on all four legs enhance stability and prevent unwanted movement on wet, slippery bathroom surfaces. These durable rubber tips also protect flooring from scratches and damage while providing secure grip. The integrated backrest offers additional security for users who require back support or have balance concerns, reducing the risk of backward falls and providing a stable surface to lean against during bathing activities.

Simple Height Adjustment Instructions

Before using the shower chair, ensure all four legs are set to the same height for proper stability. Press the push button on each leg and slide to your desired height position. Align the push button with the appropriate adjustment hole and allow it to snap securely into place. Repeat this process for all four legs until they are set evenly. Always confirm each leg is securely locked by pushing down and pulling up on the chair before use.

Easy Cleaning and Maintenance

Maintaining your bariatric shower chair is simple and straightforward. Clean the chair regularly using standard household cleaners with warm water, then wipe dry after each cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain appearance. Avoid using abrasive powders, harsh chemical cleaners, or scouring pads that could damage the aluminum finish or protective coatings. Regular inspection of rubber tips is recommended—replace immediately if you notice any ripping, cracking, or excessive wear to maintain optimal safety and stability.

Important Safety Guidelines

For safe operation, do not exceed the maximum user weight capacity of 650 pounds. Always place the bath bench on level, even surfaces and never use if the bench appears wobbly, unstable, or unlevel. Do not twist, turn, or stand on the bench while seated, as this may compromise the frame integrity. Users with limited strength or mobility should be supervised during use. Before each use, verify that all push buttons are fully engaged, no parts are loose, broken, or missing, all four legs touch the floor simultaneously, and rubber tips are intact and in good condition.
