People restricted in a wheelchair faces problems in their daily routines which ordinary people do not have. Bathing is not just something to be desired but is an everyday need. Currently despite the milestone of American Disability Act which tries to address the safety and convenience issues of the handicapped community, household bathroom is still currently designed which is very cumbersome for wheelchair bound bather. It is sad to say that the handicapped community still needs a specialized attention and specific equipment.

For the disabled bathing needs, two bath products can come really handy.Wheelchair Slide in Tubs is designed to be a wheelchair accessible bathtub where the bather can simply slide in wheelchair, sit in the tub and then pivot. This bathtub requires little bathroom space. Another bath product which allows the wheelchair restricted bather to soak in a more tradiotional supine position is lay down walk in tubs. The Lay Down walk in tub is specifically designed for people who want to lay prone while bathing but cannot lift their legs to get in and out of a traditional bathtub. It’s standard 27” by 59” walk in tub length allows it to fit standard bathtub sizes. However unlike the wheelchair accessible tub, it requires larger space. For the wheelchair bound bather a power bathtub seat lifts is required.
