Is the pail able to slide out the back of the commode so the patient doesn't have to stand for wiping?

It only comes out the front and for some reason the handle of the bucket faces the side making it a bit difficult to remove and hold on to. Almost like the bucket was made for a different commode and they had a surplus of them.

I use this above the toilet without the pail. There is no problem with wiping

No. The diaper pail is seperate and costs around $45... but is very much worth the money!

The round hand-sized knob at the left of the lid is the water pump, which is hand-operated. Water is forced by the pump into the bowl and does a good job of rinsing things toward the drain hole. We have not used this for bowel movements, so I can't speak to that.

The pail does not have an air tight seal, but you can control the water level.

I tested it and it is very stable and can be used with one hand without tipping. It doesn't seem to slip. The back bar rests against the toilet tank keeping it from moving backwards.

As you look at the picture of the holder, the center part extends out somewhat and if you keep the loose end of the toilet paper inside that flap, your dog or cat cannot grab it. It's easy to do, just turn the paper roll the correct way to hide the loose end. There is not a top to totally cover the paper.

No. There is a mesh bag that lays inside the toilet and helps hold the bag in place. It can't fall I position when legs are closed.

definitely not! the unit is prone to leaking and you could find the entire contents on the counter. i tossed mine!

Yes, the basket slides completely out of the unit for easy emptying. Lining it with a plastic grocery bag makes it less messy.

It has a non marring sleeve so that the toilet is not scratched or stained when used.

I only bring it out when I have to use it. The way it is designed you can slide it right under the toilet (i.e. between the bowl and the floor, but in front of the pedestal) and its out of the way of any potential foot traffic. Given its size however, its pretty easy to slide away on its side in an area next to the toilet, linen closet, etc. I've found its fairly easy to put away.

If there is enough room in your bathroom, you can use a commode placed over the toilet. They generally come with a removable bucket.

I say "yes"...however this display picture shows how the opening of the bottom of the "J" faces you if it is right hand placed and therefore sort of easier to place the new roll in it......if you place it on the left wall then the bottom of the "J" will face outward.....I don't think it will cause a hardship......If you do buy this be sure to install it on a slight angle so that the toilet paper doesn't fall off.....my guy did this & it works perfectly and trust me even though it may not be the best looking paperholder ever, it is a God sent item for those who suffer from back aches etc......

It is really not designed for that. The question is not clear to me. If you had a 'chamber pot' you could move the seat, which does have small opening over it, but it could get messy.I would definitely not try it over a toilet. A commode to me is a free standing item with a back, arm rests, a seat with a large hole and a removable 'bucket' or pan. Better to get a real commode.

No. I am able to freely slide a 3/4 inch board under the plunger shaft without it even touching the shaft at all.

We used it over the toilet along with a grab bar on the wall. It made it easier for Mom to lift herself and later be lifted off the toilet. The padded nature of the commode is wonderful. Didn't feel it was tippy and probably could have been fastened to the floor with a two by four. It did the normal wiggling when a person moved up or down in it. We used it with the arms up. Were well satisfied.

Not at all. The design is such the toilet tissue stays on ,with no problems.
