Description
The Drive Pinniped PC 1000 BL is a blue pediatric commode with a welded steel frame, a height-adjustable seat and a removable pail. It is rated 250 lb (113 kg), weighs 9.5 lb (4.3 kg), and the seat sets from 10.5 to 14.5 in (27 to 37 cm) high.
What does it do and how does it work?
- Frame: welded steel with a blue finish and rubber non-skid tips.
- Seat: plastic, 13 by 15 in (33 by 38 cm), with a contoured plastic back and a 6.5 by 8 in (17 by 20 cm) opening.
- Height: push-pin legs set the seat from 10.5 to 14.5 in (27 to 37 cm); set all four legs equally.
- Armrests: moulded plastic, fixed to the frame.
- Strap: an adjustable hook-and-loop chest strap adds seated support.
- Pail: a 7.5 qt removable bucket with a metal handle and cover.
- Seat top: a snap-on toilet seat that lifts off.
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- It suits a child whose feet reach the floor at the chosen seat height, with a caregiver supervising.
- It is a bedside commode; for showering, choose a pediatric shower commode.
- It has no wheels, so it is not a transport chair.
- The red PC 1000 R is the same chair in another colour.
Will it fit?
- Seat height is 10.5 to 14.5 in (27 to 37 cm); check that the child's feet reach the floor.
- The seat is 13 by 15 in (33 by 38 cm), and the opening is 6.5 by 8 in (17 by 20 cm).
- Overall width is 17 in (43 cm); measure the space beside the bed or chair.
- Book a free home assessment if the room needs measuring.
Using it day to day
- Snap the toilet seat clamps onto the back frame rail, outside the pail brackets.
- Push the legs into the frame until each button clicks, and set all four to the same height.
- The toilet seat must be down before use.
- Drop the bucket into its frame and lift it out to empty.
- Check that all four rubber tips touch the floor and that the frame is stable.
- A child with limited strength should be supervised or assisted.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
- It carries 250 lb (113 kg) and weighs 9.5 lb (4.3 kg).
- It is for bedside toileting, not for showering or wheeled transport.
- Limited lifetime warranty for the original purchaser; see the Warranty tab.
- Bathroom safety items are non-returnable once used, so measure first.
How does it compare?
- The red PC 1000 R is the same frame and seat in red.
- The NuProdx MC6000 is a pediatric shower commode for a child who is washed and toileted with caregiver help.
- An adult stationary commode has a larger seat and does not replace this child-size chair.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the seat height?
Set the legs so the child's feet rest flat on the floor, with the seat at 10.5 to 14.5 in (27 to 37 cm).
Can it be used in the shower?
No. It is a bedside commode; a shower commode is the chair for washing.
Does the toilet seat come off?
Yes. The seat clamps snap onto the back frame rail and lift off again.
