 Wonderful asset for post ankle surgery! October 13, 2006

I'm a 46 year old, overweight, active woman who just suffered through my second ankle surgery in two years. Both surgeries have left me non-weight bearing for 6 weeks and at least 12 weeks on crutches. I'm an avid exerciser, but by no means am I in shape. I purchased this for my second surgery. I'd already experienced trying to precariously balance on one foot in the shower after my first surgery and I didn't want to do that again.
Ther bench is comfortable with a curved grey seat. It has holes for drainage. The legs feel sturdy and are adjustable. I don't feel like I'm going to tip over in the shower even though I've moved it to the tallest position to aid me in standing. The seat has two handles formed on the narrow edges and sturdy rubber feet to keep it from slipping. It is lightweight and easy to move.
You need to put it together. I seemed to need another washer to attach the seat to the legs, but other than that it was really quick. You will need a phillips head screwdriver.
The shipping was free. The price was low. The quality is excellent. The seat is comfortable. It's very stable. It's durable. What more could I ask for?
After my first surgery, I got around on crutches and used a bag taped on my leg with waterproof tape to keep the cast dry. This time I've planned much better. I'm using:
XeroSox Pro-Pump to keep the cast dry - It's wonderful, heavy duty. No tape or mess. You can easily pump the air out and submerge. The pressure of pumping the air out on my ankle is painful so I can't pump the air out. The opening is tight enough that I can pull it high on my thigh and still remain perfectly dry in the shower. It has a skid proof durable sole.
Crutch Mate Arm Pads - Pretty easy to put on. I could feel the front and back edges under my arms so I put it over the exsisting pads. Very nice.
Walker - My husband got this for me because he knew how hard it was for me to hop on one foot on crutches while on morphin. I was reluctant, but it's wonderful. The stability is worth it, especially getting in and out of the shower.
Roll-a-bout - I haven't used this much because I'm still housebound, but I've met a few people who love it. Its so much easier than crutches.
Office chair on wheels - This is my life saver. We leave one in the kitchen and I scoot wherever I need to go. It offers easy mobility and comfort. A wheelchair wouldn't easily fit in my small home so this has been great.
I Want That Body - exercise, weight lifting dvd. There was no way I was going on crutches again without strengthening my arms. This is a wonderful, easily achieved tape for all ages. My 19 and 22 year-olds use it and so do I. It's easily modified for any fitness level. Read the reviews.
I hope this is helpful! Good luck!

This is a very sturdy and useful item. It is strong enough to support a heavy person, is adjustable in height over a wide range, fits well in a standard bathtub and cleans up easily afterward.
Terrific purchase August 10, 2005

I bought one of these at a local store. When my sister visited and used it, she liked it better than any she had used. She lives in Texas so I looked for an online source and found it at Amazon. The price was so good that even with shipping she didn't pay anymore than I had. It arrived there in 2 days and she is delighted. It's lightweight and rustproof; easy to assemble.

This Medline bath bench is very well made for an inexpensive item, with quality components and construction throughout. Pros: sturdy aluminum frame, stainless steel fasteners, ball bearing detents on legs (to raise the leg height), comfortable hand grips on seat, easy-to-see grey seat, easy to assemble - the seat and legs are marked for proper assembly orientation. Cons: None...it exceeded my expectations!

I just had heel surgery and working with crutches isn't easy, especially when I want to take my daily shower. This bench is not only very sturdy, it also stay put on the floor so I don't slip in the shower and hurt myself. It's a life saver!
