How to use
To use the bench, first adjust the width to match the internal dimensions of your bathtub by sliding the support arms to the desired position. Ensure the bench is placed firmly across the tub edges so that it sits level and does not wobble. Once positioned, verify that the rubberized contact points are securely gripping the tub walls. The user can then sit down carefully on the bench, utilizing the backrest for support. Always ensure the bench is dry before storage if removed, and check the stability of the unit before every use.
What to consider before purchase
- Measure the internal width of your bathtub to ensure it falls between 78 cm and 83 cm
- Verify that your bathtub rim is sturdy enough to support the bench and the user
- Confirm that the 18 cm seat height is appropriate for the user's needs
- Check the bathroom space to ensure there is enough room for the bench to be installed safely
Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the bench for any signs of wear or loose components. Clean the surface with mild, non-abrasive detergents to maintain the integrity of the aluminium material and ensure the drainage holes remain clear of debris.
