HOMCOM Accessibility Commode Wheelchair, Rolling Shower Wheelchair with 4 Castor Wheels, Rectangle Detachable Bucket, & Waterproof Design, 17" Seat Width, Black

There are some good points:1. The chair is easy to assemble without the need for tools(can be heavy if assembled by a elderly or disabled person)2. The chair is small and narrow. I have a doorway approximately less than 21 inches wide and it was able to fit through the doorway. The chair was able to be maneuvered around tight spaces that was less than 20 inches. The chair can be turned in a circle in a tight hallway without the leg rest attached( you have to ask the person you are pushing to lift their legs up constantly if they are tall.3. The chair is height adjustable.4. You can transfer a person more easier because the arms can easily be lifted up so they can slide out to the sides.5. The chair is easily maneuverable because all wheels can rotate(that also can be a negative)6. Brakes on the chair will stop the chair from moving. Pretty solid brakes(negatives mentioned later)Now there some negatives:1. The chair's wheels can maneuver easily. Maybe too easily. Like it was mentioned from a previous customer. If your house or if you are outside and the floor is not leveled this chair will roll and roll fast. For an elderly person or disabled taking care of a elderly or disabled person this is not good. or if the person taking care of anyone is weak the chair is hard to control. The chair will slide.2. The seat of the chair is one of the most important part of the chair. It has several issues.3. If someone sits on the chair at an angle or not completely in the chair the seat will lift off its base. The seat itself is held on by four seemingly plastic clips. That is dangerous if not noticed. When taking care of someone people know that it is almost impossible to get someone on a chair perfectly seated.4. I have had several people sit on the chair ranging from 150lbs. 240lbs, 130lbs and the middle of the chair where the cover for the commode is located will always fall on the floor taking with it the commode and cover .That is a horrible design. If the commode had human waste that human waste will be all over the floor. It will always fall when the person you are taking care of is not seated correctly.5. The brakes are ok when you have to engage the brakes so the chair does not move. When you have to move it is not that easy to disengage. When you engage the brakes the orange flap is pushed down and a black toggle pops out. To disengage the brakes you have to push the black toggle. Pushing the black toggles is not easy for and elderly,weak or disable person. You can hurt your hands if you try to disengage the brakes with your hands. half of a good design.The plastic clips for the seat and and smooth wheels with its own mind to the commode and cover falling apart is a big negative. The seat itself should be very important in your consideration. Will I keep it? Most likely I will keep it because of what i mentioned above. The price does seem high for the negatives I mentioned and the stress is high if you are weak, elderly or disabled.What I did do to try to fix the problems is to tie down the seat as much as possible and not use the commode. The chair is small enough for me to use in the small space I have at home,that is what is making me want to keep the chair.

This chair met the need...we needed something narrower than a normal wheelchair to get through the bathroom door. It is sturdy and is useful for bathroom visits to avoid the normal “potty chair”; the one that stays over the toilet and just gets in the way in a small bathroom. You know the one, you trip over the legs as you try to get in the shower, turn to use the sink, etc etc. one thing that is annoying about this chair is that the piece used to fill-in the hole in the middle of the chair just continues to randomly fall out...we decided to just leave it out altogether. The pull-out potty pan is useful when needed. The only other concern about this chair is that it has a short depth, so don’t plan on using it for anything other than shower/bath. If the occupant is tall/large, they may feel like they’re falling forward out of the chair. The arms that adjust up and down are useful when necessary to do lateral transfers and the chair sits a bit higher than a normal wheelchair, so the occupant can usually slide laterally and let gravity do the work. Finally, the locks on the wheels work really well. Not only do they lock so the wheel doesn’t roll, but they lock the 360 degree rotating neck of the wheel also. Remember to glide the wheelchair into place before attempting to lock the wheels, because if they are not in the correct position, it’s difficult to get your leg under the chair to kick the wheel locks on/off. Since we use it at home, sometimes I’m in my socks only - no shoes- and it’s really hard to kick the locks off without shoes on...it hurts your feet. Having the wheels in the wrong position makes it next to impossible without walking a full circle around the chair and contorting yourself in a small space. Also, the occupant typically won’t be able to unlock the wheels on their own, so someone has to help them at all times while they’re in the chair or they’ll be stuck. Alternatively, this can make for dangerous situations sometimes if the occupant is motivated to move without help. If you are caring for someone with some mobility that also has dementia you have to be very careful or they’ll attempt to standup or move to a position that puts them in danger of a fall.

Been looking for a while for a chair for Mom who is in Hospice care. She is a large woman and getting her into a wheelchair and through the bathroom door and past the commode to the shower has been impossible. This chair is awesome. Easy to put together, easy to handle. A sturdy chair, with moveable arms, that can be used for a transport chair, commode and shower chair. The commode lid and bucket are removable, so that you can wash the bottom of the patient easily. Mom was excited to be showered instead of laying in bed to be washed. She and I feel that she still has some dignity even though she has lost most of her muscle and can't do for herself anymore. This is easy to use. You will not be disappointed with this chair

I got this for my mom who has MS. It works out just great for us. It took some getting used to I wish the brakes were easier to operate. We had to drill the seat down so that it doesn’t flip up but that was an easy fix. We also drilled it to the exact height my mom needs. Overall this is a great purchase and I would recommend... just know that you might have to customize it a little for your person.... which really isn’t a bad thing when you think about it

This is everything we needed for 93year old mother who cannot walk far and unstable, especially given the price compare to others with like features. Detachable footrests(product specs don’t indicate this), arm rests are long enough to use, but can be moved up/down, wheels move easily & chair is small enough for tight spaces (can be wheeled over toilet instead of using pot). The only thing that would be nice if it was foldable, to move around house when not needed.
