{"product_id":"drive-splash-defense-transfer-bench","title":"Drive Splash Defense Transfer Bench with Curtain Guard","description":"\u003cp\u003eStepping over a tub wall standing is often the hardest part of a bath. The Drive Splash Defense Transfer Bench with Curtain Guard lets you sit on the bathroom side and slide in. A U-shaped cut-out in the seat lets the shower curtain liner hang inside the tub instead of around the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA shower chair stays inside the stall, so you still step in on your feet. If that step is the problem, you want a transfer bench. This \u003cstrong\u003eDrive Splash Defense Transfer Bench with Curtain Guard\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps two legs in the tub and two on the bathroom floor. After you slide in, the U-cut lets you close the curtain inside the tub so spray stays off the floor outside. The back converts for a left- or right-side tub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose This Product?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSit outside the tub, then slide in\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo legs stay in the tub and two stay on the bathroom floor. You sit on the outer end, scoot across, and bathe without standing through the tub wall. This is not a shower chair that lives only inside the stall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKeep the shower curtain inside the tub\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe seat is cut in a U so the liner can drop into the tub beside you. Close the curtain after you transfer. Water stays in the tub instead of running onto the bathroom floor around a straight bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSet the back for either tub side\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe back is reversible. Convert it for the side of the tub you will use, then leave it. Do that before the first bath so nobody is turning around on a wet floor to face the wrong way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMatch the seat to this tub\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDual-column legs move in half-inch steps. Set every leg to the same hole. Suction-style tips go on the tub floor. Rubber tips stay on the bathroom floor. Confirm the bench does not rock before you sit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePut the back, legs, and arm on without tools\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe back, legs, and arm assemble without tools. A pinch-free lever presses the push pins so you are not pinching fingers on the legs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho Is It Best For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Splash Defense bench is for someone who can sit and slide but should not step over the tub wall standing, and who wants the shower curtain to hang inside the tub while they bathe.

Splash Defense adds the U-shaped cut-out so the curtain liner stays in the tub.
