Oxford Mermaid Bath Hoist with Commode Seat – 125kg

The Oxford Mermaid Bath Hoist with Commode Seat is a fixed floor bath hoist designed to assist users with transfers in and out of the bath while also providing an integrated commode function. It is suitable for care homes, hospitals, hospices, rehabilitation settings and other environments where assisted bathing and toileting may be required.

The Mermaid is available with either a manual or electric lifting mechanism, allowing the hoist to be selected according to the needs of the user and care environment. The manual version uses a winding mechanism, while the electric version provides powered lifting and includes emergency stop and emergency raise functions.

The commode seat has a 360mm seat width and is designed to provide a practical solution when bathing and toileting are required as part of the same transfer process. The seat is supported by safety arms and includes a lap strap to provide additional support during transfers.

The Oxford Mermaid Bath Hoist with Commode Seat can be installed in either a side-fit or end-fit configuration, helping it accommodate different bathroom layouts. Wooden and concrete floor fixings are supplied as standard, providing flexibility when installing the hoist on different floor types.

The seat can be raised from 14cm to 74cm, with a maximum seat travel of 48.5cm. This allows the user to be positioned at a suitable height for transferring into and out of the bath.

The electric version features a detachable battery pack, allowing the hoist to operate without a permanent mains connection at the point of use. An electric retrofit kit is also available where required.

With a 125kg (20 stone) safe working load, the Oxford Mermaid Bath Hoist with Commode Seat provides a practical fixed bathing and toileting solution for users who require assistance with transfers.

Specifications

Which Bath Hoist Is Right for You?

The Oxford Mermaid Bath Hoist with Commode Seat is designed for users who require assisted bathing together with a commode function. Its fixed floor design provides a stable solution for transferring users in and out of the bath while also supporting toileting requirements.

For users who only require assistance getting in and out of the bath, the Oxford Mermaid Bath Hoist with standard seat may be the more suitable option.

Alternatively, the University Bath Hoist Commode provides another fixed-floor bathing and toileting solution with manual or electric operation and a 130kg safe working load.

If you are looking for a standard fixed bath hoist without a commode function, the University Bath Hoist provides a 130kg capacity and manual or electric operation.
