DMI Tub Transfer Bench and Shower Chair with Non Slip Aluminum Body, FSA Eligible, Adjustable Seat Height and Cut Out Access, Holds Weight up to 400 Lbs, Bath and Shower Safety, Transfer Bench

This DMI tub transfer bench is absolutely life-changing for bathroom safety and accessibility! The non-slip aluminum construction is incredibly sturdy and inspires complete confidence - it easily supports weight without any wobbling or instability. I love the adjustable legs which allow perfect height customization for any bathtub or shower configuration. The bench extends over the tub edge, allowing safe transfer from wheelchair or standing position into the tub without dangerous stepping over the side. The textured non-slip seat surface provides secure seating even when wet. The aluminum material is rust-proof and perfect for constant bathroom moisture exposure. Assembly was straightforward with clear instructions. The FSA/HSA eligibility makes it even more affordable for those needing medical equipment. The bench has transformed bathing from a stressful, dangerous activity into a safe, comfortable experience. The drainage holes prevent water pooling on the seat. The weight capacity is excellent for larger individuals. Perfect for elderly users, post-surgery recovery, or anyone with mobility challenges. The compact design fits standard tubs while providing ample seating space. Easy to clean and maintain. The rubber tips on legs prevent floor scratching and provide extra stability. This has restored independence and dignity to daily bathing. Essential safety equipment that truly works. Outstanding quality for the price. Highly recommend for caregivers and those needing bathing assistance!

Worked great for my 6’3/230lb son. Especially liked the snap seat lock. Heavy duty but light enough to move in and out of bathroom when needed.

The 6th picture in the description shows exactly how this bench looks in our tub. Yet it was still hard to visualize. We have what is considered a standard tub, and we imagined that this bench would extend the seat completely outside the tub for seating. But pay attention. The picture shows that the seat is only partially outside the tub (and partially sitting over the tub wall). But maybe because of the solid seat in the original picture, we still saw an illusion of a seat outside the tub. And yes, in reality “most” of it is outside the tub – until you take out the center hole cover.We edited the picture to help you visualize that without the hole cover, there is only about a third of the seat left to sit down on outside the tub. Perhaps this is only a problem for small, frail seniors who use this bench. Larger persons may cover the entire seat. But smaller persons do not want to fall in the hole. So you must sit gingerly on the edge, slide in, and then scooch around to get situated in a comfortable position over the large hole. And that’s because, as you can see, the other third of the seat on the other side of the hole is over the tub wall, so that’s not accessible until after your feet are on the inside. So yes, you can overcome this challenge. It’s just not as easy as we thought a sit-on-the-outside-and-slide-in bench would be. We were trying to avoid the scooching around required on the traditional solid transfer bench.That being said, the issue boils down to the hole cover. Leave it in place and you have more real estate to sit on. But that again is a two-fold problem. It’s got to be taken out if you want to take advantage of its practical purpose. Even if that’s not important and you want a solid seat, the cover is simply set in the hole. It’s so loose that when you sit down, it tends to pop up, and that can pinch in places you’d rather not be pinched. It should have been designed to snap-in solid.So we ditched the hole cover and deal with the limited space to sit. The rest of the function of the bench is fine. As we said, we have a standard tub with slightly rounded walls, so the feet go in as far as the curve of the tub will allow. The adjustable legs are great. There are two rows of adjustment buttons, the second row off-center to the first row, so you have double the choices of holes to use to really narrow down the height adjustment. The destructions will tell you to make sure all four legs are even, but that’s impossible since the floor of the tub is higher than the floor of the bathroom. So you have to make two legs shorter so the sliding bars are level, and that’s when those off-center holes came in handy.The aide better prepare for a shower, too. Once the seat is slid into the tub, the seat itself is about as wide as the tub. And with bars crossing the tub wall, there’s no getting a shower curtain around this thing. We’ve had a few ideas, but we’re still problem-solving that issue. It’s just easier to help. And lay down a lot of towels. Water will splash. Water on the edge of the seat will run down the side of the tub, especially from the little safety latch. And yes, that’s all with a shower hose pointing at the person. We can’t imagine the mess if you were just sitting under a shower head. But the mess is just the trade-off to safety.For seniors (and others) sitting is safer than standing. The backrest is nice, but too far back for small people. The rubber feet are fine. The sliding function works well so far. Again, we’ve got a small person on it, but larger people tried it out and it worked for them, too. The safety latches are working as designed. They snap over the bar as you slide to each side, but to get a smidge more distance either direction, the latch is technically past the bar. That may not be considered “secure”, but we don’t find that the seat moves about unnecessarily anyway. If the latch does catch the bar, you just lift it to unlock and slide the opposite direction. It’s a simple plastic latch that able-bodied people may laugh at, but it’s worth noting that a frail person without much strength may have a hard time lifting that latch over the bar on the inside, so the aide may need to reach around them to undo it. The seatbelt is an interesting touch, but it’s overkill in our opinion. We understand, though, that it may be helpful for some people who cannot sit up on their own. Our user would like more handles to hold on to though. The main handle is on the inside of the tub and that can’t be reached until you’re slid in. On the outside, there’s nothing to hold on to while seating yourself (except the frame, and that’s awkward). Turning it around only creates the opposite problem – nothing to hang onto once you’re in the tub. Maybe there’s no outside handle because they thought it would get in the way of sitting?Overall, the idea of this bench is great. And it does work for the intended purpose. Showers are happening, and the mess can be cleaned up. It’s lightweight to move in and out of the tub as needed, and therefore, feels light duty and not necessarily heavy duty. We hope it holds up for a while. The primary issue we wanted to share when considering this bench is to pay attention to how far it really extends outside the tub, particularly without the hole cover. Consider the mobility of your person and how close they can stand to the edge of the tub to get as far on it as they can before they kick their feet over. We gave it a 4, because it works and we like it, but it’s not perfect.

I had to use this after breaking my ankle. It did the job well. I did find out that it slides much better if you put one foot in the tub before sliding, as this distributes your weight more evenly. It was sturdy, and having the cutout is an immense benefit!!

Solid and adjustable. Light weight. Well made. Fits in standard tub and probably almost any shower/tub. If you have limited mobility, this and a hand help shower head on a hose can get you some independence while you shower.

One of the openings for the legs was too small. Can't advance the leg and I also can't remove it. It was very easy to put together. It only took a few minutes. It looks like I will have to try and return it. I just need a replacement part for part #3 and 1 leg. I'm having difficulty finding out if this is an option. Don't buy. I understand that parts can be defective, but it should be a simple process to get a replacement part. Which is another issue if you needed a replacement part in the future. The box isn't heavy but it is a larger box. It's going to be very inconvenient to return it.

Flimsy and very hard to sit on for me. I'm 5' 135lbs. Slides easily and hooks on each side and feels secure. Easily adjusted up and down. Currently experimenting with towel, pads, other to cushion seat.

When my father came home after hip surgery, the bathroom went from his favorite retreat to his biggest daily obstacle. Getting over the tub wall felt like scaling Everest in a hospital gown. Enter this bench, and suddenly Everest got a lot shorter.Setup was genuinely painless. No tools, clear instructions, and it snapped together in under ten minutes. The legs adjust in half-inch increments, which sounds minor until you realize that half an inch is exactly what stands between comfortable and awkward when someone is sliding across a tub edge.The sliding seat moves smoothly, and the nylon strap locks it in place once you are where you need to be. The textured plastic surface adds grip without being harsh, and the cut-out seat is a thoughtful design touch that takes care of something most products in this category just ignore. The backrest flips for either left or right-hand orientation, which matters more than you might expect depending on your bathroom layout.Durability has not been a concern. The aluminum frame feels solid and shows no signs of wear, rust, or wobble even after months of daily use. At 400 lbs capacity, it is built for real-world use, not just the average case.One thing to know before buying: measure your space carefully. At 39 inches wide, it needs room to work. It fits most standard tubs, but do not assume, check first. Also worth noting is that the lap belt, while useful, can be a little fiddly to adjust initially.For anyone managing mobility challenges, recovering from surgery, or caring for someone who needs bathing assistance, this bench is a practical, well-built solution at a fair price. It turns a genuinely stressful situation into something manageable, and that is worth every penny.

This looks like an excellent product - innovative design and well made, and easy to assemble. I would have rated it with five stars but we had to return it because the legs were not long enough, even when adjusted to the full height, to clear the edge of the bath. We raised this with the manufacturer but although they acknowledged our question about whether longer legs could be provided, they did not come back with any solution. With great regret we had to return it.

El producto en si esta bien, pero no trae los apoyabrazos que describen en el anuncio ni hay forma de conseguirlos. Solo llega lo que se ve en las fotos.

Easy to put together,sturdy.Being new to having some mobility issues this chair gives me the sense of stability I need.

Excelente producto nos ayudo mucho para el baño cómodo y ágil de nuestro paciente

Excellent product. Is as described. Very sturdy. Slides easily even with 220 lb. person on it but does lock securely once in (or out) of tub. Unfortunately , bought for my elderly mother and her tub is an odd size INSIDE so couldn't fit it properly unless I used it in the middle of the tub which brought it too close to the toilet. Had to return. TOO BAD!! Really really like it. Would've have been perfect if we had a little more space. The only negative is that the adjustments don't allow you to adjust LOW enough for a short person like my mom (5'1") Her feet dangle above the floor so need to be careful til she is IN the tub area. Still a a bit higher than I'd like to see there, but manageable.
