The Homecraft Aluminium Heavy Duty Shower Chair is a rust-resistant aluminium shower chair with a backrest and fixed arms, rated to 150 kg. The seat is 440 mm wide and 405 mm deep, seat height adjusts from 410 to 560 mm in the sliding legs, and the overall footprint is 590 mm wide by 545 mm deep. The reinforced frame uses 25.4 mm tubing so the client gets a firm grip during transfers.
At 2.7 kg it lifts in and out of the recess easily, and the chairs stack vertically for storage. The legs adjust through uncoated internal sliding tubes with brass pins, so they do not fill with water. Tested to Australian standards.

Who it suits
A client over 110 kg, or any client who needs a firm, stable chair with arms to push up from in the shower, including someone with a hip or knee replacement who needs the seat set high. It is a static shower chair; a client who cannot step into a shower recess, or who needs to be wheeled over the toilet, needs a mobile shower commode instead.

- A standard 110 kg version of the same chair is available
- Minimal assembly: fit the legs and set the height
- Manufacturer warranty 12 months
- Check the shower recess is at least 600 mm wide for the 590 mm frame
