A relaxing shower should never feel risky — but for many seniors, moms-to-be, or anyone with limited mobility, standing up too long in the tub can be exhausting and dangerous. That’s where a shower chair can make life so much safer and more comfortable.
At Whlicks, we believe everyone deserves to bathe with dignity and peace of mind. Our Sliding Shower Chair with 360° Swivel Seat is designed to help you shower confidently, without fear of slips or falls.
✅ Why Use a Shower Chair?
As we age — or after surgeries or during pregnancy — standing for long periods can feel tiring and risky. A good shower chair lets you sit securely while bathing, saving energy and lowering the risk of falls on wet floors.
Unlike basic stools, the Whlicks shower chair features:
- 450 lbs capacity, super stable
- 360° swivel seat — easy to turn without straining
- Adjustable height & arms — fits every body type
- Soft PU seat — non-slip & water-resistant
Tool-free setup — installs in just 2 minutes!
How to Use a Shower Chair the Right Way
Here’s how to make the most of your shower chair and stay safe:
1️⃣ Adjust the Height
Make sure your feet can touch the floor comfortably when seated. Too low or too high can cause strain.
2️⃣ Center Yourself
Sit squarely in the middle of the seat. Avoid leaning too far to the edge — balance is key.
3️⃣ Use Armrests for Support
If your model has armrests (like ours), hold them while sitting down or standing up to stay steady.
4️⃣ Add a Grab Bar
Pair your shower chair with a wall-mounted grab bar for extra stability when moving in or out of the chair.
5️⃣ Keep Essentials Within Reach
Place soap, shampoo, or a handheld showerhead close by. This avoids unnecessary bending or twisting.
⚠️ Who Should Not Use a Shower Chair?
While shower chairs are a great aid for most, they aren’t always safe for everyone. For example:
If you have very weak core strength, you could slide sideways and fall.
Conditions like severe stroke, advanced Parkinson’s, or ALS may require a different solution like a shower wheelchair or supervised bathing.
Always check with your doctor or occupational therapist to see what’s best for your situation.
Simple Setup, Big Peace of Mind
The Whlicks Sliding Shower Chair is designed for hassle-free use:
No tools needed — just adjust, lock, and it’s ready.
Wide, slip-resistant seat swivels smoothly to help you get in and out of the tub with less twisting.
Perfect for walk-in showers or larger tubs (always measure your space first).
🛁 Little Extras for More Safety
Want to make shower time even safer? Add:
- Non-slip mats inside & outside the tub.
- Long-handled scrubbers to reach your feet & back.
- A handheld showerhead so you never need to stand.
Final Thoughts
Bathing should never be stressful. A sturdy, adjustable shower chair like Whlicks can help you or your loved one stay independent and safe — one shower at a time. 🫧
