Retractable Shower Chair All about the Retractable Shower Chair

Jill was finding bathing in the bath difficult. She found it difficult to get into the bath for fear of slipping. Her carer had told her that an sensible alternative was using a shower chair in her shower. Unfortunately she shared her house with a couple of other female friends neither of whom needed to use a chair in the shower.

Her consultant suggested a retractable shower chair which she had previously not even known about but she had decided to take his advice and was now in the process of getting one fitted. Apparently the retractable chair attached to the wall with a frame (it had to be a solid wall so that the chair could support her weight fully). She was a little worried about the fixing of the chair to the wall. She worried that if the wall was not a solid block wall it may not be strong enough, but the fitter assured her it was adequate.

What she liked about the retractable shower chair was that she could use it for her showers, but when she was not using it it simply folded away very neatly against the wall which meant it did not get in the way of her friends showers.

The retractable shower chair is a great space saving device for those in need of assistance when using the shower but don't have the space to have a chair permanently in the bathroom. There are many varied models available including attractive designs in hardwood, such as teak. Before deciding on your particular chair for your shower make sure you don't overlook the retractable shower chair.
