Heavy-duty, Adjustable and Padded Bariatric Over Toilet Aid for users needing extra support
Navigating the bathroom can be a source of daily anxiety when a standard toilet is too low or feels unstable. The constant worry about slips, falls, or the difficulty of sitting and standing can reduce confidence and independence. For bariatric users, finding an aid that is both strong and wide enough to provide genuine support adds another layer of complexity, often leading to makeshift solutions that compromise safety.
The Bariatric Over Toilet Aid with Adjustable Width and Padded Seat is engineered to address these challenges directly. Built with a reinforced aluminium frame, it offers a robust Safe Working Load of 310 kg. Its key feature is the adjustable width (from 575 mm to 775 mm), allowing you to create a perfect, customised fit for both the user and the bathroom space. The raised armrests provide reliable leverage for safer transfers, while the soft, padded seat ensures comfort during use. This practical design helps restore dignity and safety to one of the most essential daily routines.
