Redefining the Shower Commode Chair

The ActiveAid SC is a self-propelled shower commode chair that redefines the aesthetic of traditional chairs. The frame design represents far more than looks; it results in one of the market’s most narrow, compact, and modular systems. It enables access to small bathrooms and doorways with new slim wheels and hand rims. The modular design allows the frame, wheels, and positioning options to adapt to individual needs.

Redefining The Shower Commode Chair

A wide range of standard features and options creates a system that enables clients and clinicians to determine priorities and consider environmental factors, then truly tailor the configuration to meet client needs without custom modifications. The frame has two height-adjustable size options (Standard and Short), which expands the seat-to-floor range and enables tailored bathroom/shower solutions. Additional features such as independent, adjustable seat slope, fore-aft seat aperture adjustment capability, back angle adjustment, and frame adjustments like rear wheel position represent user-focused design and a level of customization akin to lightweight manual wheelchairs rather than shower commode chairs.

ActiveAid SC Shower Commode Chair in Black

All New Frame Colors

The ActiveAid SC introduces an exciting upgrade to the standard shower/commode chair with five distinct color options. Red, White, Blue, Black, and Silver. With this new option, ActiveAid is promoting a step beyond the standard monotone color scheme of bath equipment. By incorporating a variety of color options, ActiveAid is elevating the user experience and allowing users to add a feeling of individuality and ownership as they can create the shower chair that properly matches their unique style and aesthetic. This advancement is a true testament to the dedication of ActiveAid to continually add new and innovative features and our commitment to both functionality and style.
