Click to zoomNova Padded Transfer Bench
Two legs stand inside the tub and two outside, so a rider slides across rather than stepping over the wall. The seat and the back are padded rather than bare plastic, and the back pushes off at a button.
The standard bench with padding, for a rider who sits on it rather than passes over it.
What stands out
Padding is the difference between a bench you cross and a bench you sit on. Bare plastic is cold when you first sit down, and it stays slippery when wet, which a rider notices most at the moment they are shifting their weight. If the shower is five minutes rather than thirty seconds, this is the $25 that buys the most.
Against that, padding takes longer to dry and it is one more surface to keep clean in a wet room. The plastic seats on the standard and heavy duty benches have drainage holes and wipe down in seconds. Pick on how long the rider sits, not on price.
Straight talk
Is it right for you?
A good fit if you
- A rider who sits through the shower rather than crossing the tub quickly
- Anyone who finds a cold plastic seat hard to sit down on
- A rider who needs the back left on for support
- A household happy to dry a padded seat after use
Look elsewhere if you
- A rider over 300 lbs., where our heavy duty bench is rated 500 lbs.
- A bathroom where the seat has to dry fast between users
- A quick in and out, where the standard bench is $25 less
- A walk-in shower with no tub wall to bridge

Owner's manualThis product cannot be returned
Bath safety equipment sits against bare skin in a wet room, so once it ships we cannot take it back. Measure your tub against the dimensions in the table below before you order.

Call us first at 1-855-HIELINE. We file the claim with Nova Medical Products for you and get the covered part sorted out rather than handing you a phone number.
