ShowerBuddy SB7e Folding Shower Chair

---

Lightweight, Space-Saving Shower Chair

The ShowerBuddy Eco Traveler (SB7E) is your ultimate companion for accessible bathing in curbless or roll-in shower stalls. This versatile unit is designed to roll over most toilets, making it an ideal over-toilet commode, and it can also function as a bedside commode. Crafted from a robust yet lightweight aluminum frame, the SB7E is perfect for home use and travel alike. Its compact design allows it to fold neatly into a travel bag (sold separately) or a closet for easy storage.

Despite its small size, the SB7E is packed with premium features. It boasts 4-inch locking casters for easy maneuverability, a commode bucket with a lid, swing-away, height-adjustable footrests, and a convenient clip-on calf strap. It is a caregiver-assisted product, ensuring safety and ease of use without requiring independent operation.
