A steady seat for every shower: the KING Shower Seat with Backrest and Armrests
The KING Shower Seat with Backrest and Armrests has a compact seat with smooth edges, a backrest with a lifting handle and two armrests. It's designed and made in Italy, certified for users up to 150kg, assembles without tools and comes in black or white, with optional blue or grey cushions.
Sit down, lean back and wash at your own pace
Standing through a whole shower is tiring when your hips, knees or lower back don't move as easily as they used to. With this seat in the shower you can sit, lean back and take your time. The armrests sit right where your hands need them as you sit down and stand up again. Choose the black or white frame to suit your bathroom.
What's in the KING Shower Seat
Everything you need is in the box: the seat, four height-adjustable legs with rubber tips, the backrest and two armrests. It all clicks together by hand, and the locking system makes it quick to take apart again for cleaning or travel.
Features
- Compact seat with smooth edges that spreads the pressure on your body.
- Anti-slip seat surface and drainage holes so water runs off.
- Backrest with a lifting handle, made to take the optional soft cushion.
- Two armrests for support as you sit and stand.
- Tool-free height adjustment on each leg. The front legs can be set a little lower than the back legs to tilt the seat slightly.
- Anodised aluminium legs with non-slip rubber tips, steady even on uneven shower floors.
- Locking system that makes the seat quick to take apart and put back together, handy for travel.
- Lightweight and dishwasher friendly: the plastic parts can go in a domestic dishwasher. The soft cushions are hand wash only.

Is the KING Shower Seat right for you?
- Usually suits: older people, wheelchair users, people with reduced mobility in the lower back, knees or hips, and anyone who finds it hard to stand through a shower, up to 150kg.
- You'll need: enough balance to sit down and stand up on your own, and to stay seated safely.
- Not suitable: if the user has balance problems or perception disorders.
- Safe use: keep all four legs on a clear, level surface, don't swing on the seat, and take it out of the shower tray after use. It shouldn't be stored outdoors.
- Need easier personal care? The KING Shower Chair with Cutout has a U-shaped opening in the seat.
Every bathroom and every body is different, so talk to your occupational therapist or healthcare provider if you're unsure whether this seat is the right fit.
