Goldfern Shower Stool Instructions
Why Choose the Goldfern Mobility Shower Stool?
The three configurations make it easy to choose between an open-sided standard stool, standard arm support, or a wider high-capacity heavy-duty seat. All retain the simple aluminium shower-stool format with adjustable legs and a draining non-slip seat.
Comfortable Positioning in the Shower
Mobility Shower Stool - with or without arms can make washing more manageable by providing a defined seated position and reducing the time a person needs to remain standing on a wet surface. When choosing a shower seat, consider the user’s preferred transfer direction, the amount of trunk or arm support required, and whether a caregiver needs room to assist from the front or side.
Measure the shower area carefully, including door openings, wall clearances and the location of taps or screens. Height-adjustable models should be set level, with every adjustment point fully engaged. Wall-mounted products require installation into a structurally suitable surface by a competent installer. Keep rubber feet or contact surfaces clean and inspect the seat regularly so it remains stable during everyday use.
