Fixed arms block a side transfer from a bed or wheelchair. This 500 lb commode drops both arms for that transfer. The Nova Heavy Duty Drop-Arm Commode is the commode sized for that situation.

Why Choose This Product?

Bedside, over the toilet, or as a frame

You can use it beside the bed with the bucket or over the toilet with the splash guard. Measure bowl height first.

A seat for bedside or over-toilet use

The sitting surface is for a commode, not an armchair. Arm spacing is in the spec table.

Drop arm for a side transfer

The drop arm is for a side transfer from a bed or wheelchair. Drop the arm, transfer, then lock it back up before sitting.

Capacity class that matches the user

Confirm the listed capacity in the spec table. Heavy-duty models are a different class than a standard commode.

No tools

The back snaps on and the bucket slides in. No tools.

Who Is It Best For?

The Nova Heavy Duty Drop-Arm Commode is a commode for someone who needs a bedside or over-toilet commode. Confirm the listed weight capacity in the spec table.

  • Bedside use with the bucket
  • Over-toilet use when the splash guard fits
  • A measured bowl and seat height

What Makes It Different?

This is a drop-arm commode. Compare the Nova 3-in-1 Commode if you want fixed arms, or the heavy-duty drop-arm if you need the higher capacity class.
