Viking Bedside Commode – Height Adjustable Bedside Toileting Chair
The Viking Bedside Commode is a practical, height-adjustable commode chair designed to bring toileting support closer to the user when getting to the bathroom is difficult. Its removable padded seat covers the toilet seat and commode bowl when not in use, allowing the chair to double as a comfortable bedside or bathroom chair.
The seat height adjusts from 470 to 620 mm, helping the chair better suit different users and transfer requirements. A padded vinyl seat and backrest provide everyday comfort, while non-slip rubber tips help keep the chair stable on the floor.
Built around a strong powder-coated steel frame, the Viking Bedside Commode is designed for regular homecare use and offers a 120 kg safe working load. The backrest is removable for added flexibility, and the frame can be stacked when multiple chairs need to be stored.

Where It Fits in the MoveSmart Commode Range
The Viking Bedside Commode is a good choice when you want a straightforward, height-adjustable stationary commode with padded seating and a relatively light 8 kg frame.
For a more chair-like bedside option with padded armrests, a curved padded backrest and a three-sided skirt that conceals the bowl, see the Viking Deluxe Bedside Commode. The Deluxe also increases the maximum user weight to 160 kg.
If storage and portability are the main priorities, the Folding Commode folds down when not in use. Users needing substantially more width and capacity should consider the Heavy Duty Commode.
For wheeled bathroom mobility rather than a stationary bedside chair, the Deluxe Mobile Commode and Shower Chair combines commode and shower-chair functions.
