Description
Etac shower stools/shower chairs:
Etac’s shower stools/shower chairs have a stable design with built-in
flexibility that adapts to uneven floors. All products have height-adjustable
aluminum legs that are simple to attach. The legs are angled outwards to
maximize stability regardless of height. All products are equipped with
ferrules that provide good grip, even on uneven and damp floors. The products
can be tilted forward to further facilitate standing up.
The seats are designed with an anti-slip pattern, ensuring a safe and non-slip
seat even when it is wet. The seats also have drainage holes that effectively
remove excess water from the stool.

Etac Swift is available as a shower stool, shower stool with arm supports, and
