{"product_id":"saljol-shower-stool","title":"Saljol Shower Stool","description":"\u003ch2\u003eShowering as if you were standing. Turning on the spot, sitting down.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a lot of people the shower is the first thing that stops being straightforward. Wet surfaces, less steadiness, less strength in the legs — and a daily routine turns into something you brace yourself for. The Saljol swivel shower stool is built around one idea: that you should be able to turn, reach and wash sitting down, on your own, without anyone needing to be in the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also a good-looking piece of bathroom furniture, which matters more than people admit. Equipment that looks like equipment tends to end up unused.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA word from the fitting room:\u003c\/strong\u003e sit down slowly and sit back upright. A wall-mounted grab rail alongside makes sitting and standing safer still, and is worth fitting at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTurn to the tap without standing up\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive anti-slip castors let the stool rotate on its own footprint rather than rolling away. You can turn towards the tap, the shelf or your towel while seated — no twisting at the waist, no standing on a wet floor to reach something.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt works for whoever is helping, too. The 360° turn is smooth enough that someone can be turned to the right position without the person assisting having to climb into the shower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLight enough to move, built to stay\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 2.8kg it lifts out of the shower with one hand, so the bathroom does not have to be given over to it permanently. The frame is rustproof aluminium and every material on it is chosen for a room that is wet every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not only for showering — it is a seat for drying hair, shaving, or anything else that is harder standing up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWashing independently, for longer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe part people do not raise until they are in the room is intimate hygiene, which is often the first thing to become difficult and the last thing anyone wants help with. The seat has a hygiene cutout adjustable to three positions, and the two seat halves slide to set the width. The EPP seat reflects body heat, so it is not cold to sit on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe point of all of it is the same: keeping the parts of washing you would rather do yourself, yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50cm (fixed — see the adapter set below to raise or tilt it)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.8kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e rustproof aluminium, for continuous use in wet rooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat:\u003c\/strong\u003e EPP, heat-reflecting, two sliding halves with a three-position hygiene cutout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCastors:\u003c\/strong\u003e five, soft non-slip rubber — rotates on the spot, does not roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum shower tray:\u003c\/strong\u003e 85 × 85cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuying from Bee Healthcare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasure the tray first.\u003c\/strong\u003e 85 × 85cm is the minimum — it is the one thing worth checking before you order.
