Adjustable Width Swivel Bather| Frequently asked questions

  Q: Is it easy to adjust the width of the base?
  A: Yes - the grey handles cover a screw thread which is easy to turn. Because the thread is quite fine, it needs quite a few turns to increase or decrease the length by a small amount. This is done for safety reasons so that the base length doesnt change inadvertently.
   
  Q: Is the safety of the Adjustable Model compromised by the screw threads.
  A: No the Adjustable Width model is equal in weight bearing load and lifespan to the standard bather. All additional components are stainless steel.

  A: No - the Swivel Bather base rests on the side of the bath and the seat fits onto the base.

  A: No - it allows the user to sit over the bath for a shower or wash.
   
  Q: Does the Swivel Bather require regular maintenance?
