Our patented DecoTeak Tranquility teak eastern style shower bench with shelf & LiftAid arms provides a subtle elegance. Its swooped flared arms not only provide a design flair, but also provide functional arms for gripping to lift yourself off of the bench. The curvilinear designs of the seat, legs, and shelf provided added contemporary elegance to your shower. The extra wide seat provides a more roomy and comfortable seating area. The included utility shelf provides extra storage area for toiletries, shampoo, or other shower accessories. Extensive clinical research has shown that by simply providing arms to assist in lifting out of a chair, the added leverage can increase efficiency by almost 200%. The LiftAide arms are designed to be sturdy, and steady to provide that added support and assistance when lifting out of the shower chair. They also provide a handy surface for hanging towels on, and the bench can double as a towel rack once you are out of the shower. The included foot leveling pads provide extra flexibility and stability to allow stabilization due to any minor slope in shower floors. Teak is naturally water, mold, and mildew resistant due to its natural density and high oil content. It has been the wood of choice for hundreds of years of luxury boat builders. This natural resistance has been supplemented by using our proprietary Deco Teak stain which is a deep penetrating stain with added mold, mildew, and fungus inhibitors. It provides the ability for this teak furniture to be used outdoors as well as indoors.
