AquaSense bath board with handle, item 770-420

The AquaSense Bath Board, item 770-420, is a white bath board by Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare. It rests across the tub rims so you can sit over the water, with a blue handle to hold.

Who is the AquaSense bath board for?

It suits someone who can step over the tub wall and sit down but is not steady enough to lower onto the tub floor. Choose a bath lift or a transfer bench if you need a back or arms.

Will it fit your bathtub?

The maker says it fits bathtub inner widths between 15.6" and 25.3" (39.6 cm and 64.3 cm). Measure across the tub, rim to rim, where the board will sit, and check that both rims are flat. We measure it at the free home assessment.

How do you set it up?

Nothing to assemble and no tools: the board adjusts to the tub width by hand and sits down on both rims. Lift it off and stand it against the wall afterwards.

How safe is it to use?

The maker rates it at 330 lbs (150 kg), and the solid handle is there for security as you step in and sit down. Set it flat on both rims before you put your weight on it.

How do you clean the board?

The maker gives no care list for this item. A bathroom cleaner and a rinse are all the surface and the handle need, then let it dry before you stand it away.

Which sizes and options are there?

One size, item 770-420, white with a blue handle. The maker lists no second length, no colour and no other model, so this page covers the whole offer.

Funding help for a bath board in Ontario

Funding may help: see who may help pay. Bathroom equipment is bought privately in most cases. Other help may be available depending on the person's situation: ODSP may cover basic bathing and toileting aids for people who receive it, and Veterans Affairs Canada and WSIB may cover them for eligible clients.

Some private health plans may pay part of the cost. Most programs need their approval before you buy. See our funding guide or call (905) 798-1853.

How do delivery, setup and service work?

We deliver across Toronto and the GTA. The board needs no installation, and you can have your tub measured first at the free home assessment. Bathroom items cannot be returned once used, under our return policy.

What does the maker's warranty cover?

Drive publishes no warranty for item 770-420, and the manual it links on that page is written for a different item, so we do not quote a term. Ask us and we will confirm it in writing.

How does it compare?

Both boards in our catalogue rest across the tub rims, but they fit different tubs:
