Description
Drive Medical Bariatric Folding Commode
The Drive Medical Bariatric Folding Commode is a heavy-duty bathroom safety solution designed for users who require additional strength, stability, and seating capacity. Its reinforced folding frame supports users weighing up to 650 lb, while the adjustable height, supportive armrests, removable backrest, and included commode bucket make it suitable for home-care and everyday bathroom use.
The 11117N-1 model combines a strong bariatric design with convenient folding functionality. It can be opened for use when needed and folded to reduce storage space or make transportation easier.
Heavy-Duty 650 lb Weight Capacity
One of the main advantages of the Drive Medical Bariatric Folding Commode is its substantial 650 lb maximum weight capacity.
This higher capacity makes it suitable for users who require a stronger and wider bathroom-support solution than a standard commode.
The frame and seating components should always be inspected before use, and the manufacturer’s maximum capacity should never be exceeded.
Folding Design for Storage and Transportation
The commode is designed to open and fold easily, making it more convenient to store when it is not required.
This can be particularly helpful in home-care environments where space is limited or when equipment needs to be transported between locations.
Its folding design provides this convenience without requiring the user to permanently dedicate a large area of the bathroom or bedroom to the commode.
Tool-Free Assembly
Drive Medical designed the Bariatric Folding Commode for straightforward setup.
The unit can be assembled in three tool-free steps, reducing the need for complicated installation or specialized tools.
The removable backrest is also tool-free, making setup and adjustment easier for caregivers and family members.
Adjustable 15.5″–22″ Height
The Drive Medical Bariatric Folding Commode can be adjusted from approximately 15.5 inches to 22 inches in height.
Height adjustment can help accommodate different users and make sitting down or standing up more manageable.
An appropriate seat height can be particularly important for individuals who experience difficulty bending at the knees or hips.
All adjustment points should be set evenly and securely locked before the commode is used.
Supportive Plastic Armrests
Plastic armrests are integrated into the design to provide additional support and comfort while sitting down, standing up, or remaining seated.
The armrests provide a stable location for users to place their hands during appropriate transfers.
Care should still be taken during transfers, particularly for individuals who require caregiver assistance or have limited balance.
Removable Backrest
The commode includes a removable tool-free backrest.
This allows the product to be configured according to the user’s needs and provides additional back support when installed.
The ability to remove the backrest can also make cleaning, storage, and transportation more convenient.
Durable Snap-On Seat and Lid
The product includes a durable plastic snap-on seat with lid.
The seat measures approximately 13.75 inches wide × 16.5 inches deep, providing a practical seating surface while remaining easy to clean.
Drive specifies a seat depth of approximately 16.5 inches.
Wide Bariatric Frame
Drive lists the width between the legs at approximately 29.25 inches.
The wider frame contributes to the heavy-duty design and provides the stable foundation required for its high weight capacity.
Because bariatric equipment requires additional space compared with many standard products, customers should verify available room dimensions before purchase.
12-Quart Commode Bucket Included
The Drive Medical Bariatric Folding Commode comes complete with a 12-quart commode bucket.
The bucket includes:
- Carry handle
- Cover
- Splash shield
These components provide the basic accessories needed when the product is being used as a bedside commode.
Lightweight Relative to Its Capacity
Despite supporting up to 650 lb, the complete commode itself weighs approximately 19 lb.
This helps make the unit more manageable for caregivers when it needs to be repositioned or stored.
The manufacturer lists the carton shipping weight at approximately 25 lb.
Practical Home-Care Bathroom Support
A bedside commode can be useful for individuals who have difficulty reaching a bathroom safely or who require additional support during recovery, rehabilitation, or long-term home care.
The combination of a heavy-duty frame, folding design, adjustable height, armrests, back support, and included bucket makes the Drive Medical Bariatric Folding Commode a versatile option for users requiring additional capacity.
The product should always be positioned on a stable, level surface and used according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
