Description
The RAZ AP is an attendant-propelled stainless steel shower commode from Raz Design, quoted to the seat and back you need. RAZ rates it at 407 lb (185 kg). An attendant pushes it; it does not tilt and it does not fold.
What does it do and how does it work?
- Seat: 18 in (46 cm) wide, 17 or 20 in (43 or 51 cm) deep, with an open-front or bridged opening.
- IPAS: the seat shifts up to 2 in fore and aft to centre the opening.
- Height: 20 to 24 in (51 to 61 cm), set on the caster posts in 1 in steps without tools.
- Castors: four 5 in (125 mm) dual-locking casters; each lock stops swivel and roll.
- Arms and feet: flip-up padded arms, and swing-away foot supports with flip-up plates.
- Build: stainless steel frame and hardware, 38 lb (17 kg) with the foot supports, with a removable commode pan.
- Back: 18 in (46 cm) high, in a fixed vinyl or tension-adjustable version, confirmed with the quote.
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- For showering, toileting and personal care where a carer pushes the chair.
- For self-propulsion, choose the RAZ SP; for powered tilt, the RAZ AT.
- For a stock, lower-cost shower commode, choose the Drive NRS185007.
Will it fit?
- The chair is 22.75 in (58 cm) wide, 34 in (86 cm) long with the foot supports, and turns in 36.75 in (93 cm).
- Over a toilet, the clearance is 16 in (41 cm) wide and 15.25 to 19.25 in (39 to 49 cm) high with the pan brackets.
- Seat depth and opening are chosen with the order, so tell us the measurements before the quote.
- Book a free home assessment and we measure the bathroom with you.
Using it day to day
- The chair is attendant-operated only. Do not leave the person unattended in it.
- Lock the dual casters for a transfer, and do not use the footplates to move the person in or out.
- It is for indoor use; on a ramp, an attendant must control it and the slope must be no steeper than 1:12.
- Clean the stainless frame and seat regularly; the lifetime corrosion cover depends on that cleaning.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
- It carries 407 lb (185 kg) and is not a transport device or a long-term seat.
- Two years on the frame, one year on other parts, lifetime against corrosion; see the Warranty tab.
- Bathroom safety items are non-returnable under our return policy, so measure first.
How does it compare?
The RAZ SP has large rear wheels for self-propulsion; the RAZ AT adds powered tilt. The rest are under shower commodes.
Frequently asked questions
Who pushes it?
An attendant. This is the AP model, not the self-propelled SP, and the person must not be left in it unattended.
Does it tilt?
No. The RAZ AT is the tilting model in the range.
Will it roll over my toilet?
Check the 16 in (41 cm) clearance width and the 15.25 to 19.25 in clearance height with the pan brackets, then tell us the measurements.
Can it go outside?
It is for indoor use. Over a threshold or a gentle ramp, an attendant controls it, and the slope must be no steeper than 1:12.
