I would not recommend it in the shower, however if it's definitely necessary please put the unit in a zip lock bag and be very careful not to submerge in the water!

Hello Patricia,We do not recommend that the pole be installed in a shower or tub. Because showers and tubs floors are generally sloped for draining purposes the pole may be difficult to keep in place. We would recommend that you install the pole just outside of the shower. You can then swing the grab bar in and out of the shower to help give you stability.

Yes, but i do not think it is designed for use with a bath tub. It is more for a "rainshower" type of setting.

plumbing can be done, but I don't think it is designed to be used with the tub. I have it for rain shower and handheld shower... Usually spout has a pull out that switches to shower. This unit needs to be turned to 1 or 2 (top lever)

NO. It specifically states according to code that it is NOT ALLOWED over a shower or bath directly. I bought this before the realization and had to spend $50 (ups ground, its heavy) + restock to send it back. Learn from my experience and mistake and find another location in your bathroom for it.

Yes you can, but I prefer using it in the shower. Using this over the sink I found to be a bit more messy. I am very happy with this product and now only have to use it about 2-3 times a week

I have never tried it in the shower. You would have to measure the available floor space in the shower. I also wonder if the arm support would inhibit getting onto the seat if you did not have direct front access from a wheelchair. My only criticism during use as a commode is that I wish the feet were spread apart just a bit more. It is too easy to tip sideways if you use too much pressure on one arm over the other while getting seated. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Yes, it can be used for shower only. That requires a pipe plug to be installed in the threaded pipe connection that would normally go to the tub. All water is diverted to the shower.

Hi Chillygirl. Only thing I saw was that it said not to use in the immediate surroundings of a bath, shower or swimming pool. I use mine in the bathroom mounted on the wall but you could just have it sitting on a flat surface like maybe the top of the toilet tank or something.

By design, I wouldn't suggest this in a shower. Just outside the shower shouldn't be a problem, but it needs to be secured by tension from floor to ceiling and I fear it might crack your tub/shower with continued pressure. Plus, as you mentioned, it is metal so it will likely rust due to a few holes where residual water will enter and collect. Hope this helps.

Yes, but try not to use it with every shower because it can potentially dry out your skin and possibly cause skin irritation.

Sure, you can safely use it in the shower. Used wet, it gives an even smoother shave than dry!

It does not fit in the tub. The legs are too wide for a standard tub. It's meant to be used outside or in a walk in shower, I think.

Hello! It would be shower safe but I wouldn't use it in the tub. Hope this helps!

I've never used it in the shower, however it's advertised as wet/dry, which means - Shower Yes. I don't think that I would be afraid to take it into the shower.

Yes, you can use it in shower. However ensure that it is not used when it is plugged in to a power source.
