Review on Turquoise Plastic In-Bed Head Wash System With Drain By SP Ableware - Model 764271000 by Amy Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just What the Doctor Ordered

My wife's health has deteriorated from MS to the point where helping her out of bed for a change of sheets is a very painful process. The shower chair is no longer an option. After looking at the inflatable units, whose long-term durability I did not find adequate, I decided to bite the bullet and go for the best that I could find. Due to its' rigidity, and, therefore, potential for discomfort, I ordered this unit. Turned out to be just what the doctor ordered, no pun intended. My health care aide and I are able to situate it partially over the end of the head of the bed, and, thus, keep it evenly flat. An old towel, doubled up, provides both more neck comfort, and, and additional water barrier. The home health care aide loved it, and, the Mrs. felt comfortable using it. You loosen both plugs during use to ensure that the water drains from the bottom into the reservoir. No sloshing around in used water. You tighten both plugs when finished, and, using the built-in handle, tote it off to the tub, or, outside for easy drainage. I do recommend using the optional plastic water bag with spray head, and, also, acquiring and extendable IV pole to hang it from. A very handy, mobile solution that I highly recommend.

Pros
  • Health & Household
Cons
  • The suction cups on the bottom of the unit aren't strong enough to hold it securely in place
