Tee –
I am paraplegic and this chair was a game changer for me! Easy to assemble, I assembled it completely by myself. It is sturdy, the breaks are very strong, the chair itself is very functional, fits good in roll in shower, and undoubtedly money well spent!

This chair is an excellent option for giving elderly patients more independence with showering and hygiene.

I would give this chair a 3 to 4 stars. If you need a chair to use for toileting, it should hit the mark. If you only need it for shower duty, like me, it’s got some limitations. Despite some reviews, it wasn’t that hard to put together even sitting in a wheelchair as I was. It’s a solid build and is great for allowing me to independently roll around.Now, the limitations (and some of these are me things, not necessarily a problem specific to the chair). I’m 6 feet tall and not super wide. I can’t lift my legs. It’s hard to sit on this chair for more than 15 or 20 min, which just gets me through a shower because the seat and backing are hard. The seat is high and my feet just partially hit the ground. My affliction includes spasms so not being able to be squarely seated is a problem and my feet are too sensitive to use the foot plates. I don’t use these and it leaves an open hole where you plant them. A hole for water to get in. I wish there were caps for these holes for those of us not using the footplate.The other big thing that many have mentioned is center plug to the seat. It doesn’t fit in tightly so if I shift around at all getting in or out or during the shower (which is a likelihood given that I can’t maneuver my legs) it will fall out. I’ve had a couple times where my upper leg gets caught in the open hole leading me to either fight through the pain or restart the entire shower process. This limitation was the one thing that made me seriously consider a return. I’m wondering if I can drill a bar into the underside that would help that plug piece from falling through and allow me to shift around as needed or maybe Kmina could create something (hint, hint)So, good chair, not great, just nothing else on the market to compete.
