My mum is quite elderly and has bad knees so struggles going to the loo and shower. She has already fallen twice in the shower.

Am looking for bathroom seats and commodes for her in SA but most of them are not rated enough for her weight and width.

Any assistance with where to find these would be great. I would love to bring her to SA and look after her but she refuses to come here.
 
It's been a few years but I found CTM here in PE very helpful in sourcing this type of equipment for my mother. It's not normally on display so you need a knowledgeable assistant, best go during the week when the casuals aren't on duty.

CTM the tile shop?
 
ok.
most important question....

Where is your mother?



Then:
How much does she weight?
and how wide (you mentioned this being a problem)?

ok.

So lets assume she does not fit very well through a door, meaning she can fit through, but not with as much room as someone of 60kg. That could place her on the plus side of 110kg.

Still, where is she located.....

No, no. You can't do that.

Why is it relevant? And why is her location relevant?

If you have some answers, here's Tact 101: "In PE the QQQ machine obtainable from PPP is worth looking at. It's good for your mom's 55kg, but can handle up to four times that, so there's a great safety margin."

Work on 55kg, with ample safety margin.
 
If she is located in the US then why try source it here? However if she is in Zim then better would be available here.

Everyone knows @Hamish McPanji is slightly “slow” but I doubt it took him 10 years to find what he was looking for.
