18" PVC Shower Commode Chair

PVC Shower & Commode Chair with Drop Arms, Padded Seat & Sliding Footboard — 400 lb Capacity

The Healthline ST6030FT5SF is a step up from a basic shower chair — combining a corrosion-proof PVC frame with drop-down arms for easy lateral transfers, a padded soft commode seat for patient comfort, large 5" casters for smooth rolling, and a sliding footboard included standard. At 400 lbs capacity and 20" under-seat clearance, it handles heavier patients and rolls over virtually all standard residential toilets. A practical all-in-one shower and commode solution for home care use.

Why PVC Instead of Aluminum?

Medical-grade PVC will not corrode, rust, or degrade with repeated wet use — no coatings to wear through, no joints to rust. The frame is lightweight, easy to wipe clean, and holds up to the disinfectants commonly used in home care settings without surface damage.

Drop Arms for Lateral Transfers

The drop-down arms lower completely out of the way for lateral transfers from bed, wheelchair, or toilet — then lock back into position once the patient is seated. This is a significant safety and convenience advantage over fixed-arm shower chairs, particularly for patients with limited mobility who require assisted transfers.

Padded Soft Commode Seat

Unlike the hard vacuum-molded seats on basic shower commodes, the ST6030FT5SF includes a padded soft commode seat for improved patient comfort during extended bathing routines. The seat is sealed against moisture penetration for hygiene and durability.

Sliding Footboard — Included Standard

The sliding footboard is included with every chair — not an add-on. It adjusts to support different leg lengths and provides stable lower leg positioning during bathing. Slides in and out of the way when not needed.

Rolls Over Most Toilets

The 20" under-seat clearance and 5" casters allow the chair to roll smoothly over virtually all standard residential toilets, converting it from shower chair to commode without any transfers. The higher 23" seat height also makes it easier for patients to stand up from a seated position.
