I think transfer tub benches are great and can be useful for a wide population including those who have had strokes, hip replacements, and those with arthritis. Its important to consider the size of the bathroom and walking space when considering a transfer tub bench. Hi and thanks for your comments.

These are the best for those people that fear falling in the shower.<br>2 legs go into the tub and two go on the outside of the tub. The bench then comes out over the side of the tub. This means you do not have to step obver the side and into the tub. You simply sit down on the bench and slide your feet into the tub area. It is truly the safest option available.
