Letters From Our Therapists

The R82 Manatee is a bath chair designed to support the user with special needs in a sitting or supine (lying down on back) position. Reclining Back and Elevating Leg Rest are independently angle adjustable. The Manatee is available in 4 sizes to accommodate young children through small adults. Please click on Size Chart tab below for more details. Maximum weight capacity for the largest size Manatee frame is 165.3 lbs. (75 kg). This adaptive bath seat is appropriate for users with mild to complex postural support needs.

The Manatee comes standard with Lateral Support Cushions that are height adjustable and can be used for additional head support or for support along the torso. The Manatee also comes standard with a Hip Belt. Extra Lateral Support Pads and a Torso Belt can also be found in the accessories section.

The Manatee Seat is depth adjustable so that it is able to grow with the user. This extends the life of the bath seat for growing children. Seat Back and Seat Leg Rest angles can be set for optimal comfort of the user and the caregiver. The Seat Back can even be reclined with Leg Rest elevated to allow the user to lay flat for care and washing. The base also allows for a variety of heights from the tub floor to decrease caregiver back strain and promote good body mechanics and overall safety during bathing.

The Manatee also has several optional bases that can be purchased in the accessories section. The Tub Stand raises the height of the bath seat an additional 10.5 in. (26.7 cm) from the tub floor. The height adjustable Rolling Shower Frame is perfect for roll-in showers and the Tub Slider Frame allows the child to be placed in the shower seat in the bedroom then rolled to the bathroom where the mobile frame locks into a bridge allowing the seat to be slid across the bridge and onto the stationary frame that sits within the tub. With the Tub Slider frame the Manatee sits over the tub for showering.

The Manatee Bath Seat surface is made from a comfortable, Latex-free, anti-microbial mesh that is both heavy duty and easy-to-clean. Tension of the seat surface is adjustable for user comfort and to allow a hammock effect for sinking down into the seat. The rust resistant legs contain non-skid padding that will ensure the seat is stable and safe even when wet.
