Multi purpose chair
Posted by Sigmund Lundanes on July 25, 2023 at 8:17 amHi,
I have used this for 6 months and recommend it,
– to and from bed/wheelchair
– shower/toilet chair
I have the manual one but there are hydraulic and electric on the market.

What a great idea! I’ve not seen anything like a split seat design. Thank you!

Thanks for sharing, that could make life much easier

I saw this on Amazon for about $37K. That’s a bit rich for my blood but the chair is killer, and maybe the VA can get me something comparable for my husband.

Hi,
I purchased it from the manufacturer in India – airlifted it to Norway.
Total costs incl freigth, local taxes and VAT : app 1200 usd

Wow! What a great design… but such a high price.
I use this model for my shower chair. It’s very sturdy and has practical uses beyond the shower if you need them.

This chair is brilliant! Can you give us more information on where you ordered it from in India? Thank you!

I just realized by doing an online search that there are a number of chairs online that do a similar thing and they range in cost from $1000- $2000. There are also chairs that utilize a cloth lift if the pALS cannot independently support their head/ torso upright in a chair like this one: https://www.orthomen.com/products/electric-lift-patient-transfer-chair?variant=44806738510057¤cy=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw_aemBhBLEiwAT98FMoeVb-6cK3G5njGMa3UEvPwHRmJbv60agQ-znDHxFmyVhVydhzPIVhoCAB4QAvD_BwE.
I am curious what other people’s experience is with these. My partner (pALS) is not needing this yet but trying to anticipate future needs.
