Q: How does the Nuprodx MC4000 improve bathroom transfer safety?
A: The MC4000 features four 5" locking casters and flip-up cantilever arms.
The locks and armrests provide stability during transfers, helping reduce fall
risks.
Q: Will the MC4000 fit in my bathroom and over a toilet?
A: Yes. With a 22" width, adjustable seat height (22"–26"), and 14"–17"
inside clearance, it fits over most standard and ADA-compliant toilets and rolls
into barrier-free showers.
Q: Is the MC4000 shower commode chair comfortable for sensitive skin?
A: Yes. It includes soft, textured Naugahyde cushions that resist water and
reduce pressure—ideal for users prone to skin irritation.
Q: How durable is the MC4000 for daily use?
A: Built from aircraft-grade aluminum, stainless steel, and brass, it's
rust-resistant and sturdy. Despite weighing just 28 lbs., it supports up to 300
lbs. and is easy for caregivers to handle.
Q: Can the MC4000 be adjusted to fit different user needs?
A: Absolutely. The seat height, footrest length (12"–20"), and seat size are
all adjustable. Optional seat sizes include 17"x20" or 20"x17" for added comfort
and fit.
Q: Is this roll-in shower chair suitable for independent users?
A: The MC4000 is best used with caregiver support. While it's easy to
maneuver, users needing full independence may require a self-propel model like
the MC4024.
Q: Does it work with both standard and ADA-height toilets?
A: Yes. It’s compatible with most residential and ADA-compliant toilets,
offering flexible toileting and shower access.
Q: Can I upgrade the seat size on the MC4000?
A: Yes. The standard 17"x17" seat can be swapped for a 17"x20" or 20"x17"
option to suit user preference and body size.
Q: Are the armrests adjustable for transfers?
A: Yes. The flip-up cantilever arms allow easier side transfers, making
caregiver-assisted movement safer and smoother.
