HydroTilt® XL
The HydroTilt XL is our supportive bariatric chair, purposefully designed to provide exceptional comfort, posture, and pressure management for individuals with increased body weight and size. Built with all the trusted features of the original HydroTilt, the XL model accommodates up to 35 stone with ease, ensuring optimal support and stability.
The adjustable waterfall back offers extra space to comfortably support the gluteal shelf, promoting balanced posture and targeted pressure relief. Meanwhile, the negative-angle leg rest helps distribute weight evenly through the feet, enhancing both comfort and sit-to-stand transfers.
Engineered with the user and caregivers in mind, the HydroTilt XL includes powered Tilt-in-Space functionality to promote pelvic stability and pressure redistribution without affecting hip or knee alignment. This thoughtful design supports energy management, reduces pressure risks, and minimises strain on caregivers.
Equipped with heavy-duty castors and powered adjustments, the HydroTilt XL ensures smooth and safe mobility, making it an invaluable solution for both user comfort and carer safety in healthcare and home settings.
