The Heron Toilet and Bathing Seat by R82

Despite its sleek and attractive appearance, in cool white and grey, the Heron is a function rich and versatile toilet and bathing seat and it’s set to make bath time a much less stressful affair! The Heron by R82 boasts the very best in Danish design and construction, with no effort spared in ensuring utter comfort and safety for the special needs user and streamlined ease of use for the carer. Peace of mind is what the Heron is all about.

With the help of infrared pressure mapping, experts at R82 have created a bathing chair that won’t become uncomfortable, even after extended periods of use. That’s definitely a good thing since the Heron is so versatile that it can be used in the shower as a bathing seat, over the loo as a toilet chair or freestanding with a pan accessory.

What truly sets the Heron apart though, is the fact that it’s completely dynamic. Specialist design allows it to be tilted and back reclined without compromising the anatomical pivot point at the hips of the user, ensuring the utmost comfort for your loved one. The Heron also features a narrow backrest, allowing freedom of movement for the while seated. What’s more, the smooth height, tilt and recline functions take a weight off the shoulders of the carer, indeed, ease of use has been considered every step of the way.

Because R82 understands the importance of safety features, the Heron Hygiene, Toilet and Bathing Seat has been equipped with 4 lockable casters, plus swing away side supports and upholstered sides, to support the shoulders, can be added with minimal fuss. Furthermore, a comprehensive selection of vests, belts, supports and padding are available in order to meet the special needs of every user.

Last but not least, understanding that transfer into and out of the toilet and bathing seat can be hard on the back of the carer and possibly even more unpleasant for the user, the Heron is equipped with hydraulic height adjustment capability. This ensures a streamlined routine for you during transfer and a lot less strain on the user too.
