All In One! You don’t need anything else!
This item is worth every penny and because it is a multi use item it actually saves you money in the long run. I’ve been taking care of my elderly father for a few years now and through his decline we’ve needed to make changes and add geriatric items to help assist him. I really wish I knew about the shower buddy chair years ago. I would have saved so much money. My father is now almost 94 and can’t even walk a few feet with his walker to get to his bathroom so with this new chair I can lift him out of bed and wheel him right to the toilet then straight to the shower. No more need for the handicap chair rail around the toilet (which is terrible with company because I have to hide everything) and I was able to get rid of the raised toilet seat and the shower chair. This is a game changer for all of us in the house actually and because it’s only one item, it takes up less space! Also makes life so much easier for the caregiver we have during the day because it’s become a safety hazard for one person to lift him and walk with him to the bathroom. He was needing two people now but with this shower buddy we can wheel him everywhere; even acts as a transfer chair so we don’t need the wheelchair anymore either. He’s in hospice care at home and doesn’t need to leave the house so we gave up the wheelchair. This item is very easy to put together; actually is mostly put together already. It’s also very light weight. My favourite part is the rubber caster wheels w/ locks. I’ve seen many chairs with a lot of metal or aluminum which is terrible for the shower because it corrodes too quickly. All the materials are very well made. Thank you to the company and for the quality of this item. It’s going to last a long time. Wish I had this 3 years ago. You know you’re middle aged when you get excited about your parents new geriatric chair lol!

Wow. Exceeded expectations by a wide margin. 20 stars
As I took it out of the box, I wondered if there was some kind of mistake — this is so unlike the flimsy, generic stuff that we've bought in the past. It is light, but fantastically solid and well built. Great wheels and locks. Well designed, too. This is the transport chair Apple would have designed. (I've worked for Apple, so I know.)It works for my wife perfectly. It's the best transport chair, shower chair, and commode, hands down. It's compact yet roomy. It's strength makes it able to be open underneath, great for spraying from below. The 'bucket' underneath can be taken out and put back while she's on the chair. It reduces the number of transfers and is more comfortable than the chairs it replaces. It's the best mobility purchase we've ever made.It's not perfect, but the problems don't detract from its use at all. The footrest edges are not rounded, they can feel sharp on the soles of the feet.

Very good value for the money, but does have a few cons
Pros:* Easy to assemble and to adjust the seat height* Easy to put the footrests on and off and adjust their height* Easy to move – much lighter than the non-rolling commode we had before* Easy to add or remove the commode bucket* Easy to put liners on the bucket* SturdyCons:* The listing says it will go over a 17.5 inch toilet but that isn’t actually true. Ours is 17.5 inches to the top of the bowl, and it does not go over that. The bolts and bar that hold the commode bucket on get in the way, so the clearance is actually more like 17 inches.* It doesn’t do well rolling over any kind of threshold, although you can partly alleviate that by going in at an angle* The wheels are difficult to lock if you are not wearing shoes* When you lift the seat to remove the cover, the seat doesn’t stay up so you have to hold it up. We did find 2 different hacks for this, see details below.* The commode lid is difficult to pick up, but we found a hack for this as well, see details below.* While the seat is somewhat padded, it is not at all comfortable. It’s not as bad when you have the insert in, but when you’re in commode mode it is not comfortable at all.Hacks/discoveries* The hack for the commode lid being hard to pick up was to take two inexpensive cord-style headbands and crisscross them across the lid and then secure them with twist ties to form a handle. You do need to periodically swap them so that you can wash them.* The first hack for the toilet seat lid not staying up is to place a wooden bar crossways behind the armrests if you need it to stay up for a while,. We were using a dressing stick, but I think any kind of wooden stick would work.* The second hack for the toilet seat lid not staying up is to hook a bungee cord around the seat back and then slip the lid under the cord to hold it up. The advantage to this option is you can leave the bungee cord on all of the time, although it is a little bit uncomfortable for the person sitting on the commode.* The other discovery we made is that we can use this as a transport device for getting in and out of a small enclosed toilet area. Unfortunately, as noted above, we can’t actually fit it over the toilet, but we are able to use it to get in and out without the patient having to do much other than stand up and turn. When leaving the bathroom, the caregiver helps the patient stand up and turn about 90°, then brings in the shower buddy and helps her sit down on it. The same basic concept can also be used when entering the bathroom.

Great for travel
What a great product! I recently drove from Texas to Maryland and of course back again and took my shower buddy with me. I use a wheelchair and I was traveling alone. In addition, I have multiple conditions that affect my hand, strength and dexterity. What I did is, I left the chair, part intact and folded it as shown in the video to put it in back of my van. I then took the seat and the back off And the whole chair survived. To be honest, I dropped the chair both on asphalt and on tile. I used a bungee cord to keep it all together, I wish I had bought the travel bag. This thing is so durable and so useful. It is lightweight enough that I can lift it out of my van, put it together and even with my poor dexterity and strengthen my hands I was able to push the button to snap it all together like in the video. I have had many chairs over my life and this has just been the best one ever
