Why we know this works!

We love this shower wheelchair because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we celebrate every task a person can take back for themselves, and showering on your own schedule is a big one. Can you shower independently if you use a wheelchair? Yes, in a curbless shower: this chair has big push rims like a regular wheelchair but is built to handle water, so you can transfer in wherever it is safest, wheel yourself into the bathroom, and shower without waiting for help. Flip-back armrests make transfers easier, and the commode opening lets the same chair roll over the toilet or serve bedside. It is especially important for wheelchair users with spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, or lower body weakness who have good arm strength and a roll-in shower. Measure first: it is 26.25 inches at its widest, wider than our caregiver-assisted Roll-In Shower Chair, and it will not clear a shower threshold; for curbed showers see the Rolling Shower Chair for Standard Showers.
