Bellavita Bath Lift Chair Review

While returning from the hospital this afternoon, I got a call from Marie and even though I was very tired after a grueling day, I was excited by the news she gave me: She had finally found a good bath lift chair for her 82 year old mother and she was very pleased with what she got from Amazon. After telling me how she researched online looking for the chair, I decided to do my own research on the one she bought and this is what I found out:

The Bellavita bath lift chair happens to be among the lightest bath lifts in the market weighing only 20. 5 lbs (9.3 kg). At 2. 3″ it is also among the lowest. The seat height reaches 18. 8″ making it excellent for deeper model tubs. The backrest reclines to about 50 degrees at its lowest position (watch the video below).

Pros

• This bath lift chair is built very strong and guaranteed to last long
• It is not difficult to set up
• The controls are easy to use
• The packaging is very good and the delivery is prompt
• The battery unit is easy to recharge and its enclosure is waterproof
• It is easy to keep clean even when left in the tub
• Very good for deep tubs and can go very high or very low

 

Cons

• It makes a clunking noise when carrying a very fat person.
• Does not work very well for very tall people unless the tub is relatively long
• The instruction manual is not well explained but setting it up is quite easy
• The controls (on, off, up and down) are color coded with no other indication or marking. This can be confusing for someone who has memory problems

 

Usage Tips

• Charge the battery for at least four hours before first use
• If you are very tall make sure you have a relatively long tub

 

My Advice

This bath lift chair had the best reviews out of all that I sampled. The only key negative to this product is the fact that if you are very tall, you need to have a longer tub so that there will be more leg room. But if you are not very tall I recommend it as an excellent and long lasting buy.
