Bathroom safety continues to be a concern in elder and disability care. Because so many accidents occur in the bathroom, having home health safety products, such as bath lifts will greatly reduce the chances of them happening in your home. Besides providing a safer environment in which to shower or bathe, bath lifts also offer users and caregiver's peace of mind knowing that accidents are less likely to happen. Bath lifts are also designed to offer convenience as well as safety. When it comes to homecare solutions, what could be a better combination? If you have been searching for a product that is affordable and functional, then this could be the perfect handicap bath tub option for you. Active Forever offers a new and improved Sterling 311 Bath Lift with more appealing features than previous models. Made with durable materials and available in blue or silver sage, this bathing option was crafted with comfort in mind.

The Sterling 311 comes with a reclining seat and a washable anti-slip seat cover which means there is no need to worry about sliding or shifting while bathing. It is a battery operated unit that has a visual warning when the battery needs to be recharged. For added safety, the bath unit will not move if there is enough power in the battery. To operate, simply press one of three power buttons on your waterproof handset to lift or lower yourself or to turn the unit off or on. The option to recline is granted when the seat reaches the bottom of your tub. With three reclining positions, finding a comfortable position is almost guaranteed. Using this unit will not only provide safety, but it will also put the joy back into taking a bath. Just add some bubbles, and you're on your way! The bath lift has a seat width of 26.5" with the flaps fully extended and the reclining positions are 10, 35 or 45 degrees. The seat to the top of the backrest measures 22.9 inches and the maximum weight capacity is 287 lbs. so the average sized person should fit comfortably in the lift.

In addition to easy handling and installation, the unit can be removed in two parts making it easily transported from one bath tub to another. There is a limited lifetime warranty on the frame and a 2 year warranty on the parts. Because of hygienic reasons, this unit is not returnable after it has been purchased.
