18" PVC Shower Commode Chair

Healthline ST6030FT5SF PVC Shower & Commode Chair

The ST6030FT5SF combines a corrosion-proof PVC frame with drop-down arms for lateral transfers, a padded soft commode seat, large 5" casters, 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.

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. Lightweight, easy to wipe clean, and holds up to 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. A significant safety and convenience advantage over fixed-arm shower chairs, particularly for patients with limited mobility who require assisted transfers.

Sliding Footboard — Included Standard

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