Q: How can I tell a Myco Swivel Bather from
a copy? |
|
A: The seat of the Swivel Bather is unique
- it has small diamond shaped holes in the plastic seat. Also the
holes in the base plate for the locking device form an "X"
shape. In most copies the holes are in the shape of a "+".
The base plate and swivel pin are stainless steel. Most copies use
mild steel. |
|
|
|
Q: Does the Myco Swivel Bather require lubrication? |

steel and a high quality flange is used in the seat base, the turning
mechanism will rotate in a trouble free way for many years. |

too low? |

back ? |

it easier to transfer onto the seat and to get up from the seat after
use. |
