    Bidet that works with commode?

    We are almost in your position, so I know just what you mean. I know that the bidet seats, ours is a washlet, all have seat sensors. The sensors are usually at the 4 o'clock or 5:00 position.

    Astral 150 set up for wheelchair/mobile

    It was a breeze! Thank you everyone. I never realized that we would have to purchase the bag for the Astral separately. We just used the bag of our back-up bipap. Also, hubby's chair didn't have hooks. We'll have to look into getting some of those.

    Power Chair Broken...again!

    Hi Steve, I didn't even ask what parts were ordered. I was more concerned about the loaner chair, at the time. Hubby is making do sitting in a kitchen high-backed chair It seems so odd that there aren't more foot controlled chairs out there. Yes, a back up chair seems necessary. Thanks!

    Power Chair Broken...again!

    Just an update. We've had a tech come out to assess things, and the chair needs two parts, both back-ordered. In the meantime, they gave us a loaner with hand controls. I'm glad to have the loaner, but hubby needs foot controls, and has to tilt constantly in order to swallow. So, now I'm...
