The L-Shaped Folding Shower Seat with Legs gives you a wider place to sit in the shower, then folds up out of the way when you're done. The 10 mm high pressure laminate seat is 31 1/2 inches wide, 15 3/4 inches deep on one side and 22 3/4 inches deep on the other, and it reverses to sit left or right to fit your shower.

Two adjustable legs reach the floor and set the seat between 17 and 19 inches high. The legs and floor support 75 percent of the weight load, and the seat is rated to 600 pounds at the center line and 360 pounds on the edge. The frame and mounting flange are 100 percent stainless steel, so they won't rust. A tension hinge keeps the seat from falling, and there are no finger pinch points.

MedlinePlus advises sitting on a bath chair or bench when taking a shower. Looking for a rectangular top? See the Folding Shower Seat with Legs.

Ideal for walk-in showers, for anyone who needs to sit while bathing, and for homes where other people still want the full shower when the seat is folded up. The wall flange needs solid backing, and the included hardware is for wood studs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is an L shaped shower seat? It's a shower seat that is deeper on one side than the other. This one is 31 1/2 inches wide, 15 3/4 inches deep on one side and 22 3/4 inches deep on the other, and it reverses so the deep side can go left or right.

Q: How much weight can a folding shower seat with legs hold? This seat is rated to 600 pounds at the center line and 360 pounds on the edge. The legs and floor support 75 percent of the weight load.

Q: What height should a wall mounted shower seat be? This seat's legs adjust from 17 to 19 inches, so you can set it to the height that suits you. Choose a height where your feet rest flat on the floor when you're seated.

Q: How do you install a fold down shower seat with legs? The flange mounts to the wall and the two legs reach the floor. The wall needs solid backing, and the included hardware is for wood studs. Other wall types need hardware suited to that wall, so we recommend a qualified installer.

Q: Is this an ADA shower seat? Ponte Giulio rates this seat as ADA. Whether a finished shower meets ADA also depends on where the seat is installed, so check placement with your installer.

Q: Are fold down shower seats good for elderly people? They can be a great fit for older adults who need to sit while showering, because the seat is there when you need it and folds up when you don't. MedlinePlus advises sitting on a bath chair or bench when taking a shower.

Q: What is the seat made of, and does it come in other colors? The top is 10 mm high pressure laminate and is always white with speckles. The frame and flange are 100 percent stainless steel with satin legs, and the seat carries a lifetime warranty. For a rectangular top, see the Folding Shower Seat with Legs.

Why we know this works!

We love this L-shaped seat because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we often need more seat than a narrow fold-down can give, without taking over the shower for everyone else in the home. What makes an L-shaped shower seat different? The seat is deeper on one side, 22 3/4 inches instead of 15 3/4, which gives you more surface to sit on, and it reverses so the deep side can go left or right. Legs reach the floor and, with the floor, support 75 percent of the weight load. When you're done, it folds up against the wall. It is especially useful for people who shower seated every day and for households sharing one bathroom. A seat is not a stand-in for something to hold, so pair it with a grab bar like the Round Grab Bar and a Handheld Shower Head so you can stay seated while you wash. The wall flange still needs solid backing. If drilling into the wall isn't an option, a freestanding seat like the Wide Seat Shower Chair with Arms & Back is the better route.
