    Nice video. I was very helpful. Could you please explain why you don't prefer the ones with the legs. It seems to me they would be even better. But I haven't tried either yet.

    Does anyone have any advice on how to keep water off of a floor on a with a one piece shower bench that doesn't have that option to cut the shower curtain and tuck it in. Any help would be appreciated thank you

    You could just put the toilet lid up and put the walker in front of the toilet lid

    Thank you so much. Im not elderly, but i had a surgery before and i struggled to not make a mess in the bathroom, and it made me not want to shower as often. Now going into my next surgery I'll be more confident and comfortable using my shower chair.

    How do you then prevent the water from going all over the floor and making a slip hazard for afterward? I don't see how the curtain could be used with the bench there unless the outside part of the bench folds up afterward.

    Thank you! I'm a new caregiver for my disabled mother and am trying to learn tips & tricks. I have a good setup at home for her but was trying to figure out what to do when we travel and are using a friends bathroom. This was perfect as my concern was water going everywhere!

    That recommendation is creative. What if you open the toilet lid first and then place the walker?

    Just take the video down, it's useless! I looked it up here when I didnt find the two screws. I finally figured it out, it's the two knobs that have plastic washers, you unscrew the nut. I think if I wanted to make an instructional video I would learn this first.

  • @ml32891

    And how is this going to stop you from falling over sideways?

  • @sierrabravo7368
    @sierrabravo7368 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I just don't see how this can work especially when the user is not within the walker and the brakes would take too long to activate if you are not gripping them all the time

  • @sierrabravo7368
    @sierrabravo7368 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I see people walking without their fingers around the brakes, so if you trip forward you will never pull the brakes quickly enough to avoid hitting the ground

    • @SunShine-tr5cw

      Either remove the glass doors and put up a curtain rod and curtain or find something different than this type of transfer device

  • @esha9000
    @esha9000 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I broke my leg and ankle and need to use a transfer bench. I like your idea of using a towel on the bench. I tend to stick to it and am having difficulty sliding across. I will try the towel tomorrow. I have cut a slit in the shower curtain. I also use a plastic bag on my leg to keep it dry. I find keeping my leg outside the tub and propped up works well for me. I arrange the curtain to cover the whole area and have a hand held shower. Water outside the tub is minimal.

    Nice Now to video. Have you ever sat inside the tube then inserted the curtain into the gap? I'm not that big 185lbs and I would have a very difficult time doing your suggestion if your sitting on the chair. I think you need to try your idea from the inside and take a shower and get wet! I'm missing my feet so I can't stand up to put the curtain into the slot and when sitting on the chair I only have use of my left arm.

    There is a strap on the right side of the seat. That is to help you fold the walker to put it in a car. When attaching the back rest, lift up that strap and thread it around the back rest. That will keep the strap within easy reach at all times, especially if the person using the rollator has issues with leaning over.
