CLICK HERE TO BUY DURO-MED SHOWER CHAIR
The Duro-Med shower tub stool is so small that it fits even narrow bath tubs or small shower stalls, yet being sturdy enough to support up to 250 lbs of weight. Its legs are corrosion-resistant, as they are made of 1” anodized aluminum tubing, strong and rust-free. For increased safety and stability in the shower, the legs are provided with slip-resistant rubber tips. The height of the Duro-Med Shower Tub Stool can be adjusted between 15” and 20”, thanks to an easy snap adjustment system, much better than other systems that require tools and strength to make this adjustment. The shower chair is delivered unassembled, but all we needed to assemble it was a screwdriver. The whole operation took about 10 minutes, so we estimate it’s fast and easy. We found the large, molded polystyrene seat to be quite comfortable and not too slippery. If you’re looking for a cheap and strong shower stool for your tiny tub, we recommend you the Duro-Med shower tub stool, available in medical supplies shops or at online retailers for an average price of $40. However, in case you have problems with your back, a shower chair with backrest would be better, as on this one you may feel a bit unsecure.

At 400 lb weight capacity, the Carex Universal bath bench with back makes a good choice for persons weigh too much to use other batch benches of shower chairs models. Another feature we thought to be a progress compared top other models is the 18” – 23” exact level height adjustment facility, much better than the incremental ones. No tools are required to adjust the height, all you have to do is turn the rubber feet and you’re done. The rubber feet grip very well to the bath tub floor and the two handhelds on the sides of the seat make it easy to handle. Besides, they can also serve as small storage spaces for your sponge or for the shower head when you are lathering up. Priced around $60, the Carex Universal bath bench with back is an affordable way of getting more secure in your shower, be it you’re recovering after an injury or simply that you’re old and can’t bend that easily. If we only think at the quick, tool-free assembly this Carex shower chair provides, we see that it’s also very convenient when traveling, as you won’t need to take the tool box with you as well.

CLICK HERE TO BUY MEDLINE SHOWER CHAIR

This Shower Chair by MedLine is a good choice for patients who need help in the bath tub, and who can’t support their back without the additional backrest support. An example of use is after leg or hip surgery, when you still need a shower but you can’t stand. Having a very sturdy construction, with wide angled legs and suction cups at all feet, the Shower Chair by MedLine is able to provide you all the comfort for a great, safe shower, even if you can’t use your feet properly. Since this chair is meant to get wet, it features an extremely durable and lightweight anodized aluminum frame, which is rust-resistant and strong. The seat is textured for preventing you from slipping off it. Its height is adjustable from a minimum of 14 1/2” to maximum 19 1/2”, in fractions of one inch each. Another seat feature I’ve appreciated is its generous size. At 20” width by 12” depth, even bigger persons can feel comfortable and shower without fearing that they may fall down and get even more injured than they currently are. At its maximum height, the Shower Chair by MedLine can be used as a regular chair even after your recovery period ends and you’re able to stand again while taking a shower.

CLICK HERE TO BUY MEDLINE SHOWER CHAIR

If you like to be independent, the Medline shower chair bath bench without back can be your perfect help for managing to take a bath without needing help from anybody else. It’s gray, so you’ll be able to see it even if your sight is not exactly what it used to be, as it makes a good contrast with the white of the bath tub. Although it is easy to assemble, its size of 15 x 25 x 11 inches allows you to keep it assembled even when not in use, provided that your bathroom is large enough or that you have some other storage space you can allocate it. The Medline shower chair bath bench without back weighs 9 pounds, so in case you intend to place it in your bath tub by yourself, you need to make sure you are allowed to lift that weight without triggering any health problems. Thanks to its angled legs, the weight is evenly distributed over a large surface, thus offering you an increased security. Another element that adds to the security of this bench are the suction cup feet, which make it very stable, even when covered by water. Beware if you are overweight or obese, as the Medline shower chair bath bench without back can hold up to 250 lbs only.

We have included some personal reviews from Amazon to help you.

This is a very well made bench, very sturdy and comfortable. Altho it is WAY too big for a standard bathtub, is great for a stall shower. I gave 4-stars instead of 5 because of its inappropriateness for a bathtub.

This is a great chair compared to the one I got rid of. Just the right size for my stall shower (large one) and the color is right on. Very comfortable and, best of all, sturdy. Recommend highly!!!

I bought one of these at a local store. When my sister visited and used it, she liked it better than any she had used. She lives in Texas so I looked for an online source and found it at Amazon. The price was so good that even with shipping she didn’t pay anymore than I had. It arrived there in 2 days and she is delighted. It’s lightweight and rustproof; easy to assemble
