Is this a shower seat? Description says "get in and out of tub easily"... not sure what that means?

Yes, it's a shower seat. It helps to get in and out of the tub easily. If you are sitting at the bottom of the tub (as normal), it's difficult getting up to stand and get out, if there is little strength in the arms. I like my seat, with the exception that the tray underneath keeps falling. However, I don't use the tray. I recommend this seat.

It doesn't have anything to do with a tub. It is a shower seat. . My wife uses it and she loves it. She had a rectangular shower stool, and she likes this one much better. It swivels very nicely, so she can turn and have the shower on what ever part of the body she wants it on.

Its hard plastic, designed to slide into a tub/shower to allow the person to wash up. My mom took about 10-15 minutes to shower so not sure why you would want to sit in the chair for longer term? The nurse taking care of my mom said it's the nicest shower chair she has ever seen and it functions perfectly.

No, using it to pull yourself up from a sitting position will result in pulling it off the rim of the tub. I use this device to steady my self when standing to taking a shower. It works well for that.

It is sitting on the top of the bath edge(s) so the seat is almost leveled. If the tub edges are in level with your knees or a little higher that would be the most comfortable position for people who don't have strength. If the edges are lower than you would need some help unless you would face the chair, grab hand rests and try to get inside of the bath. My father used it that way until he felt comfortable to seat on it first and then move his legs into bathtub while turning the chair. To be honest his bathtub edges are pretty high. It is excellent sturdy product!.

I really can't see any difference in the chairs. I like mine although I don't use it often. I normally take showers. But when I want to soak in the tub my chair has worked as described without any problem.

No. This is helpful if u r sitting on a bath chair and need assistance standing up and stepping out the tub or if your standing to take a shower it will Assisi you in stepping in and out the tub

It's a sliding bar, does not attach to the wall. I got this for my mother in law and she doesn't use the shower as often as bathing but it's helpful to have the bar for adjusting when she needs it. I do not think the bar not being attached is an issue.

It is a hoop, however, if the tub is not in a 3-sided enclosure you'll need to use two shower curtains, one for the back side, the other for the front. I added Velcro tabs to the curtains at the back end of the tub to keep them together. One curtain will not due if it's a free-standing tub because it won't go around the ceiling support rod. I had ceramic tile at the front end of the tub and on the back wall but still needed 2 curtains to close in the back end and the exposed entry side.

You can leave the thing off when you put the seat together. I had the same thought, however, this knop, or handle, is outside the bathtub and now I often use it to steady me when I get out of the tub. Also, the shower curtain fits in front of it and it helps keep the curtain from coming loose and leaking water on the floor.

The top 2 slats slide out completely. There is a small space behind the 3rd.It is a very functional seat and can be easily cleaned with a moveable showerhead.

Yes it is a seat that goes on the sides of the tub. Got it for my mom. Don't know what the weight limit is but I know it will hold up to 190.

No. It is made of sturdy, durable plastic. The seat has holes in it to drain water off, but there's no way for water to seep inside. The aluminum tubular legs and back support are capped off, so no water can get inside them. I am very pleased with this chair and recommend it to anyone who needs help in the tub or shower.

Yes, I have two showers and one combination shower/tub. I especially like it for showers as I can scrub without having to get down on my knees. Hope this helps you out.

in a standard tub the 3rd set of legs is outside the tub. So it would be dependent on the width of the stallIf it is a walk in shower, you wouldnt' need the slide in part you could just sit. I don't know which you have.

This is the tub shower kit. There is a kit that is only for the shower which would be a better choice for you.

The reason for this "Shower Bench" is to be able to "slide" into the tub. Why would you even think about cutting up something so expensive. Just find a cheep bench to sit on that fits your tub.

It's light and easy to remove from the tub. It can be disassembled for storage. This product is safe and very helpful/useful for the person bathing.
