A bath chair is a water-resistant seat used to assist people who can’t stand in showers or tubs. It is also called a tub seat or a tub chair and it is made of metal, plastic or a combination of both.
It has a backrest so it is almost similar to a regular chair in terms of size and shape.
This seat is slip resistant so you can’t slip and hall whilst taking a bath. The seat features rubber feet (suction cut-like feet) for maximum safety. Bath chairs are designed to give you a place to rest when taking a bath.
Some models have the ability to help you get in or out of the bathtub with much ease.

Bath chairs are meant for people who cannot stand for long periods of time or those who can’t step over the bathtub wall. They are also ideal for the disabled, the elderly, the handicapped or even those that are injured. People who have recently had hip or knee replacement can also use a bath chair.
Here is a short video that provides more information on the type of products that you can use in the bathroom to help provide both comfort and safety.
The cost of a bath chair depends on several factors. Durable bath chairs are usually the most expensive of all. The quality of the bath chair, its mode, size and the material which it is made out of are some the factors that affect the overall price of a bath chair.
Small bath chairs typically cost around £22 while bigger ones cost around £35.99. Therefore, most prices will range between £22-£35.99.
The cheapest ones are a bit basic while the more expensive ones are fancier.
There is no universal bath chair for everyone. This is because people differ in height, weight and other physical needs.
A good bath chair is one that suits you well. One of the factors you should look out for when getting a bath chair is its height. A good bath chair should have the perfect height. Consider checking how far the chair can adjust before purchasing one.
The chair should also be wide enough to extend over your bath tub’s front wall. The seating style will also determine how comfortable you’ll be. For security, check whether the seat is stable. A good bath chair should be stable to prevent its user from falling.
Look for a chair that is compatible with the height and width of your tub wall. It should also be compatible with the width of your tub floor. You should also check whether it has padding. These prevent skin tears and pressure sores.
