Description
Mobility impairment no longer necessitates extensive bathroom remodeling. Traditionally, adapting a bathroom to accommodate mobility needs involves significant renovations, including customized shower, toilet, or vanity units. These modifications come with substantial costs, time investment, and stress. For renters, dealing with mobility challenges can be even more challenging, as altering the bathroom layout is often not feasible.
The ShowerBuddy SB1 was specifically designed to provide comprehensive shower and toilet access for individuals with mobility requirements—without altering existing bathroom fixtures. In just under an hour, the ShowerBuddy SB1 can be set up and configured, allowing for easy transfers in and out of a step-in shower unit and positioning over a standard toilet. Plus, if you’re moving to a new home, simply pack down the ShowerBuddy SB1 and set it up there.
Here are the key features of the Shower Buddy :
Seamless Transfer: The SB1 consists of a comfortable, sturdy chair and a bridge unit. Align the unit with a step-in shower, move the seated user back along the bridge, and secure the chair with waterproof suction feet. Caregivers can easily access the user during this process.
Toilet Accessibility: The height-adjustable chair allows for easy use of the existing toilet. Locking caster wheels enable maneuvering and secure placement over the toilet. When not in use, a full overlay cushion accessory transforms the SB1 into a comfortable day chair. Additionally, it includes a pan and lid for nighttime commode use.
No Remodeling Required: Unlike traditional bathroom modifications, the ShowerBuddy SB1 doesn’t require any changes to your bathroom fixtures. It’s a hassle-free solution for those with mobility needs.

- Positioning the Unit: Begin by lining up the ShowerBuddy SB1 with the step-in shower. The user can then transfer from their wheelchair to the comfortable, sturdy chair on the SB1. The bridge unit allows smooth movement during this process
- Secure Placement: The chair features safe, waterproof suction feet that firmly fix it to the shower floor. This ensures stability and safety during use.
- Caregiver Access: At this point, the bridge can be removed, allowing caregivers easy access to assist the user. The chair can also rotate, accommodating different positions for cleaning and comfort.
- Transfer Out: Once the shower is complete, the chair connects back onto the bridge. This enables an easy transfer out of the shower unit.
- Flexible Base: The base of the ShowerBuddy SB1 can remain in the shower or be quickly removed, allowing other family members to use the shower as usual.
