BELLAVITA BATHLIFT - SAFE, EFFICIENT, TOP QUALITY MOBILITY AID
£299
Description
Manufactured by Drive Medical, this German-made bathlift makes it easy to get in and out of a bath for someone no longer able to do so on their own. No fixing or tradesmen required. Simply fit the three sections together and place in the bath. Built of high-quality, recyclable lightweight plastic, it is designed equally for ease of use as it is for transporting or stowing away. It is tough and durable and conforms to the legal standards DIN EN ISO 10535-2006 and DIN EN 60601-1:1996. The lithium-ion battery is located in the hand control. The hand control itself can float in the water. The drive motor and control electronics are completely water tight, so you can use the Bellavista even with the shower on. It sits on plastic cups that do not mark and will not slip, yet it is still easy to remove the bathlift when required.
The seat fits all baths and can be raised or lowered from 6 cm to 48 cm (2.4 to 18.9) simply by pressing the UP / DOWN buttons. The backrest can be held upright or inclined. The max load capacity is a massive 140 kg. Intelligent power control ensures that the lift can only be lowered if sufficient power is available to raise it again. The battery is charged by means of a supplied charger which plugs into a standard 13 amp socket. A full catalogue of accessories and spare parts is offered by Drive Medical. The UK importer is based in West Yorkshire.
This seat has been used ONCE only. It comes absolutely complete with all parts and operating manual as when purchased from Able Care, Inverness. As the photo of the receipt shows, it cost 598.80. For sale at half-price, 299. May be able to deliver locally. Am prepared to pack for a courier if the purchaser arranges one. (In my experience MyHermes is one of the cheapest and I would expect carriage to be around 15-20 - check couriers maximum dimensions and weight of package. Can always be sent in two parcels if necessary.). The product details, without any packaging, are as follows:
