So how do you get out from the tub?

this concept just looks like the linked product….

I think it would be easier if the movement of the tub were remote controlled. Also, you would probably need an emergency drain button,just in case.

I think, it is good but I wonder how to get out, and it is really easy to use

Hi,

Although i have nothing to do with anyone who would need to use this product, i thought i’d leave some positive feedback as its pretty negative so far.

Well done this is a good design in my opinion and answers a genuine need in a far more stylish manner than most of the other disabled baths i’ve seen.

I assume to get out, you drain the water and the bath will then go back to the entry position allowing the user to get out the same way they got in. The only downside to this i can see is the wait for it to drain.

Remote control for the bath, well maybe but this compromises the simplicity and almost the whole reason for the seesaw action. Could also lead to it being tipped with water in, keep as it is.

Ignore propa above, he/she obviously bathes in toilets!

Your steel grips page has a typo on it, you missed the P on provides. Just so you know.

Nice work

Nice work but what if she/he is so fat?. Water may not be enuogh to get balanced..

Thanks for discussion about buthtub

That is very interesting, You are a very skilled blogger. I have joined your rss feed and look ahead to in the hunt for more of your great post. Also, I have shared your website in my social networks!

Although interesting, I would experiment with a scale model before solidifying anything. I don’t see the water counterweighting the person, I see it just flowing over the side. If you get a better grasp on the mechanics it’s an interesting idea though.

Nice shape!
My wife is a wheelchair bound person. So I can see some things to consider. This bathtub is for persons with arm strength capacity.
Seams best to use with a chair so for safety reasons and considering that the body weight is higher when wet and the surface of the tub will be slippery, is important to include a hook to the wheelchair.
We are talking about no electricity (good) and no assistance (brave) otherwise forget about the idea.

This is a lawsuit waiting to happen…

thank you for advise, and I will remember that you talk me.. thank you agin.

Thank for advise. but, How do people uncomfortable arm and a leg to use a bathtub with-out assistance?

I’m very very impressed!

I think this is the most awesomest thing I have ever seen. I have a little cousin who was in a car accident and I was wondering if this is the final design and if so, will it be available for purchase anytime soon?

I think this is a great design. My son would never be able to enter the tub on his own, but it would be easier for us to get him in and out. I would like to see a lap safety belt as a optional accessory. With multiple children in my home, it would allow for me to not have to remove our heavy bath lift every time one of them needs to get in the tub or the tub needs cleaned.

We own a plumbing company and are very intrested in your bath tub. My mother in law is in a wheel chair and I can really see the benefit and feel that other people will as well. How do we contact you about the purchase of or sales of the flume bathtub?
