The fact that it is steel and heavy duty. I am a very large woman weighing 350. I love the strength the commode has!

None that I saw.

I am 72 and have mobility issues, the commode is so wonderful to have close at hand.

Strong metal frame as compared to the last locally purchased commode which had a plastic or fiberglass "deck" which cracked badly although it too was bariatric and user only weighs 185#

The mounting for the seat itself comes off the tubular frame when the user shifts or sits down "off balance": the seat clamps (U-shaped) should be longer to hold better.

This product was purchased to use for my Bariatric Patients in my Out-Patient Physical Therapy Practice.

Was nice and sturdy

Did not fit on toilet completely

mary t. from selbyville, de

I was having a knee replacement and I needed the use of a taller commode

Relatively lightweight.

Not really lightweight.

We hope to be able to do a bit more travelling because of this purchase. Hotel/condo bathrooms are generally a "disaster area" for people in wheelchai

Ease of assembly, well built, strong, lightweight and is a good looking commode, I should know as my profession was as a nurse....

I weigh 245, since the commode is rated to take up to 600 lbs., the toilet seat opening is larger than usual. My problem is that while I'm large, the end of my spine (coccyx) is devoid of fat protection. My one decubiti is there and when I sit, I hit it - ouch! Have padded the area which is helping.

None

caroline b. from hastings, fl

54 years old; left leg below knee amputation; ongoing toilet problem in father's home.

Large sturdy frame

The plastic seat does not properly fit the frane and the bucket doest fit right. Two joints pop off in the back top and seat on left side. I can't manage taking to post office, so I will keep it. I thought this was expensive so it would be good.

charlotte m. from murchison, tx

ge 70. Cannot make it to bath room.

Adjusts for use over chair height toilet. Good quality.

Don't know why they put such a flexible, flimsy toilet seat on it. This is supposed to be for bariatric use. It makes you feel the metal framework when sitting on it.
