Sarah started off the project by studying how people with physical limitations move, and what their needs are. “It often feels good to be able to hold on to something with your hand. That’s why we developed the wall-mounted towel rail and shower shelf. But the step stools and the shower chair are stable and grip-friendly supports, too.” The shower chair can also add a bit of everyday luxury: imagine sitting comfortably and steadily and feeling the warm water pouring over your body.

Stylish shower stoolAnonymous reviewerStylish shower stool comes in two pieces, the seat just clicks easily onto the frame. Looks so much nicer than many of the common shower stools. Feels sturdy and secure to sit on. Generous width.
Perfect Anonymous reviewerReally comfy
Great chair for rehabAnonymous reviewerBought the chair to assist with post op care following knee surgery. It’s just brilliant use in a shower use at the sink to assist with personal care and it’s also great for the crucial exercises that free up the knee post op - highly recommend
Excellent even for bigger people.Anonymous reviewerVery sturdy chair and looks so much better than the usual ugly white ones. As a bigger person I can say this chair is perfect. It might be a little wider for smaller showers however for walk in ones it's brilliant. Easy to put together and light enough in weight to carry.
Shower stoolAnonymous reviewerBigger than I thought
Shower chairAnonymous reviewerFits in my shower perfectly and is just what I needed. The only thing was I would really have preferred a white one and there was no choice of colour.
ExcellentAnonymous reviewerI bought this for my sister who had had a knee replacement, it fits perfectly in her shower & looks so much nicer than other ugly alternatives.
User CommentsAnonymous reviewerWell made and comfortable to use.
Shower chairAnonymous reviewerGreat chair, comes ready made so no assembly required. Very comfortable and light so easy to manoeuvre into position.
StylishAnonymous reviewerThis shower seat has none of the look of an aid for the elderly. It is stylish in design and can be used simply as an extra chair in the house without looking out of place.
lovely sturdy seat.Anonymous reviewerIdeal in our wet room. Feel safe as sturdy not wobbly like the adjustable one. I also use it outside. Perfect height making it easy to stand. Only downside is that it would be too big for the average enclosed shower.
Brilliant Chair!Anonymous reviewerI bought this for my elderly mum, who couldnt stand for long in the shower. She loves it! It's a good height, movable around the shower room/cubicle, and looks so much nicer than a disability fixed chair. We needed a chair that was movable, as the walls were only stud walls, which was a nightmare to fix one to.
Great chair for a great price!
Too wide for modern showers.Anonymous reviewer.
Great Shower Seat.Anonymous reviewerIdeal height, strong material, Two piece assembly, Great for use in most walkin showers, I would recommend this product.
Modern shower chairAnonymous reviewerLove this modern looking shower chair!
Shower seatAnonymous reviewerSolid and sturdy in the shower. Looks stylish and not like a hospital one. Very smart.
Making life easierAnonymous reviewerThis is a very good looking shower stool whilst being sturdy and supportive. Very pleased with it. Easy to wipe dry after use.
Good looking and sturdy!Anonymous reviewerNeeded a shower chair post knee surgery. Never would have thought of Ikea for this but this chair came up after a quick Google image search. I really didn't want those standard ugly white and grey ones that turn up under the specialist mobility categories so this ikea one was a perfect accidental find. Looks good enough that I'll keep it as a bathroom chair to rest towels, robes etc. It's not just the black colour that make it look nice, the design is simple and sleek. One thing to bear in mind, it's fairly large so make sure it fits your shower!
Great!Anonymous reviewerReally useful and stylish
Very useful for those with limited mobilityAnonymous reviewerI actually use this in the garden as I have arthritis in both knees. It's a good height and relatively comfortable although I add a cushion to sit on. I am a large lady but find the seat width perfectly adequate.

Story
A little support that can make a big difference
A helping hand on your way out of the bathtub, when you want to reach the top of the bathroom cabinet – or simply feel a bit groggy on an early morning. Our BÄSINGEN product series is there for convenient support when you need it the most. Designed for the bathroom, but just as useful throughout the home.
Life at home is in constant change, and the needs can shift quickly. “Maybe you pushed extra hard in the gym and woke up feeling all stiff. Then you might need a little extra support and help with the simplest everyday things. Like taking a shower,” says designer Sarah Fager.
A safe grip
Support that blends in with the home
The products were created to take up little space and have a minimalistic expression that is rooted in our Scandinavian design tradition. “They should blend in regardless of your style and shouldn’t be something you need to put away or hide.” Sarah hopes that the series will make a difference in the everyday life of many people. “This was one of my most challenging design projects because it was about meeting needs that were new to me. But this also made it one of my most enlightening projects. I wish BÄSINGEN will be something you can live with for a long time. Maybe you will use the products a bit less during certain periods in life, but they are always close at hand, ready to provide support.”
