    What we love about Shower Stool "Tom"

    Beyond the fantastic colour options, shower stool "Tom" is so versatile, even as a shower stool for small showers.

    Because "Tom" looks so good, it can be used inside the shower, as a bathroom stool outside of the shower, as a garden stool, and even as spare stool when guests come over.

    As a shower stool, the round and smooth design is comfortable to sit on and the gaps in the seat allow for water drainage while showering and when finished showering.

    Shower stool "Tom" is a sturdy, high-quality and safe choice for general use as a shower stool. The height of 45cm allows feet to sit firmly on the ground.

    Of course, it is always important to consider individual needs and abilities. Shower stool "Tom" is not the type of shower stool that you would find in a hospital, it's not suitable for limited mobility or post-surgery recovery. It does not offer the same level of stability that comes with shower stools that have integrated frames or back support.

    Nevertheless, we recommend shower stool "Tom" as a reliable and safe choice for a sit down in the shower, a versatile option that doesn't look like it belongs in a hospital.

    Shower Stool "Tom" - made from high-quality materials

    The Shower Stool "Tom" is made in Europe by Siesta Exclusive. Siesta specialises in commercial and hospitality furniture​. Their products are known for durability and their 5-year warranty. The Shower Stool "Tom" is of no exception. Rather than the typical plastic stool for a shower, "Tom" is made from high quality polypropylene reinforced with fibreglass.

    Polypropylene is a thermoplastic that is resistant to heat and chemicals. It retains colour and can withstand exposure from the sun, to chlorine and detergents.

    Fibreglass reinforcement enhances the strength and stiffness of the shower stool. Plastic shower stools lack this quality and are unable to safely hold a weight of up to 150kgs. Over time, plastic shower stools can become brittle.

    Why do people use shower stools and shower chairs?

    Shower stools and chairs serve as assistive devices designed to provide support and safety while bathing or showering. People may need shower chairs for various reasons, and these chairs can offer a safe and secure option for support and fall prevention when bathing.

    Here are some common reasons why people use shower stools and shower chairs for support:

    Mobility support: whether temporary or permanent, it can be challenging to stand for an extended period in the shower. Conditions such as arthritis, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, or injuries can limit a person's ability to stand or move easily.

    Balance support: Some individuals experience difficulties with balance and vertigo, making it unsafe to stand in a wet and slippery shower environment. A shower stool or shower chair provides a stable and secure seating option, reducing the risk of falls.

    Post-surgery, illness or injury recovery: People recovering from surgery, illness, or those experiencing weakness or fatigue can need additional support while bathing. Shower stools and shower chairs can take weight off and allow people to sit comfortably and wash. Shower chairs are useful during the recovery period, allowing individuals to maintain personal hygiene while adhering to medical recommendations.

    Reducing discomfort: People with chronic pain conditions, such as back pain or joint pain, may find it more comfortable to sit during a shower. A shower chair provides a means to bathe and can help to reach all areas with over exerting or extending.

    Neurological conditions: Certain neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease, stroke, or neuropathy, can affect balance and coordination. Shower chairs offer a stable and secure seating option, reducing the risk of accidents.

    Fall prevention: Older adults or those at risk of falling may use shower chairs as a preventive measure to enhance safety in the bathroom. The risk of slipping on wet surfaces is a safety concern for many people, and a shower stool or shower chair provides a secure place to sit.

    Shower stools and shower chairs are assistive devices play a crucial role in promoting independence, safety, and dignity while bathing.

    Seniors like to deal with Australian companies.

    I am 80 years old and a very strong supporter of Australian-owned companies.

    I needed a special "Information Clock" for my wife who has short-term memory loss. I checked several websites and selected The Independence Shop as they are Australian and their presentation was good quality.

    They sent follow-up emails and I thanked them for their information and their business style. I will deal with them if we need other seniors-helpers and refer our friends when they need them.

    I wish Chris and Rosie best wishes for their future.

    I purchased four products, each has proved good value, easy to use and three had no batteries to chase after.
    What I also liked was this was a local business with personal delivery which was very prompt.

    Reliable service and a great selection of products. Found quite a few things that I didn't know were available. Worth a look!

    It's really nice to know what's available to support my elderly mother. I've tried to find useful things previously and it's not easy from one reliable place.

    The products arrived quickly. I didn't have to question if they would take months to get delivered or if they would even be what I ordered.
