Safety in Showering Bath Extender for Sale
Have you family members who, although able to cope by themselves, have some difficulty showering over a bath though not needing assistance?
Altering a bathroom to accommodate a walk-in shower, as we now have done, is a costly business and the area may not be suitable. We purchased this bath extender with the idea of replacing our upstairs spa bath but the contour of the bath base was not suitable. Of course,
we had to construct it to find that out!
I used one of these in our downstairs normal bath after I had broken my hip in an outside accident. It was invaluable. I felt extremely safe showering by myself and I am an octogenarian.
I am asking $100. I paid $139 and a very similar one at a large store is $199. There is a 15-year guarantee. The back can be removed, if necessary, for transporting.
Please phone me on 843 4421 or message me. Thanks.
