Solution Based | ShowerBuddy Transfer Chair for Standard Shower Stalls | Accessible, Barrier-Free Shower Solution for Caregiver Assistance
The ShowerBuddy, a caregiver-assisted transfer chair designed to transform your standard curbed shower into an accessible, barrier-free bathing solution in minutes.
This innovative system reduces the need for heavy lifting and multiple transfers during toileting and showering, providing a safer and more convenient experience without the expense or disruption of a full bathroom remodel.
The SB1 consists of three key components: a rolling base that doubles as a bedside commode, a bridge, and a shower base.
The rolling base moves easily like a wheelchair, allowing users to transfer from room to room and position over the toilet.
After toileting, the base and shower base connect via the bridge to glide over the shower curb, then the shower base can rotate 360 degrees, giving the user flexibility to face the shower controls or any desired direction.
A secondary safety mechanism helps prevent the chair from sliding off the track, enhancing security during use.
Designed with comfort and practicality in mind, the SB1 features a front-opening cushion, flip-back and removable armrests, height adjustability, a footplate, 5" lockable casters, a removable commode bucket with lid, and both lap and chest belts.
It supports users up to 350 lbs and weighs 54.8 lbs.
The ShowerBuddy is backed by a limited lifetime warranty, making it a reliable and versatile solution for caregiver-assisted bathing.
Please note, the SB1 fits over a limited number of toilets and is intended for assisted use only.
