Will this work if I weigh 325 lbs? Like, I can't lift myself up entirely, but I can displace 25lb using my arms on the side of the tub to also lift

No, please don't buy this....I could not use it because it had no stablity.

We don't really take it appart, and only took it on one trip, for which I collapsed the legs to their lowest settings, but nothing else (meaning, no disassembly). It does not move around in the tub if properly positioned. My 91 year old mother-in-law uses this bench and it works for her. Good luck.

I would say absolutely not. About a pound of pressure start up, push or pull bottom bar. Sometime you have to hold on to something to keep you down. You are not having to lift your weight at all. You will not stay down unless you want to, now its just a little fear of unknown. Just moving one arm carries you up or down. I feel it is therapeutic as well as instant relief.

I'm 5'2 and 170 lbs :) the tube would be fine :) as far as climbing in and out of the tube it is about the same as any other tube normal challenge for anyone. I do prefer this tube from others. The tube is nice for curling up in or laying back. Sometimes I like sitting cross legged inside of the tube. the handles make it nice for climbing in and out of the tube. You won't be disappointed well worth the money.

I think it might be too big for your tub. If you don't need a back, try looking at the round seat that rotates. Good luck!

hmmm, it sags to the extent most cloth-type seats do. It will probably depend on your weight and how much movement you do have in your legs. I'm not sure if you mean putting it in the tub, then sitting on it, then swinging your legs in? If that's the case, I would be very careful. It's pretty light, and if you put too much weight or pressure on any part not centered it might tip. However, I just switched bathrooms today so I guess I could try that (never thought of doing it that way!) and let you know if I survive :). Seriously, I'd be very careful if you do. I am severely limited in mobility in my lower extremities but if you aren't as limited (or as heavy) you might be ok. hmmm, it sags to the extent most cloth-type seats do.

If your weight close or over 275 lb I think you should looking for other more expensive, heavyer products. I really don't know what will happen if the person who's weight reach or over that limit to use it.

Yes, but I gave my tub lift away. It was not safe for me. I have polio and have very poor balance and no lift muscles.

My mom is 5'4" and about 150 lbs. She is unresponsive and I have to log roll her into the tub, so she can't sit up. Laying down, she fills the tub from head to foot and pretty much side to side. Working with my mom in this tub, I personally would not purchase this tub for someone 5'11" and 300 lbs. Aside from the size of the tub, the strength of the seams on the tub are an issue. If the seams break and the air leaks out, you will have a huge mess and a big financial loss on the cost of the tub and any other damage. I hope this helps in your decision.

This is an excellent product that I'm really happy to have. It might support a heavier person. I'm a little over 200, I'll bet it will work. You might want to call the company or just try it.

I agree with Emily ... I think it would be way too painful to put your full weight on this model. I know some people have had great results but my wife found it pretty painful to use and very cumbersome to use sitting upright in a chair for neck massages. We sent ours back.

Sorry it took so long for me to respond. I weigh 226 and it will hold my weight. The only difficulty that I encountered is that the cross bar is about two inch square and it is a little difficult to hold on to while pulling up. I wear gloves and it makes it a little easier. Good luck.

Definitely! There are 2 models, one that maxes out at 220 pounds and one that maxes out at 340 pounds. Buy the higher weight model and set it for a slightly higher weight than260 and reach under the chair to pull yourself down for better lift.

yes it will work. My son is 22 lbs he loves the tub, but he isnt secured in it like a tub ring. My son stands up alot in this tub but its so much better than a baby bath since we only have showers in our home, this works perfect!

sounds crazy to me too as long as the weight restriction and your height is okay I think the lift will be fine. ours works great!

I'm really sorry but I do not think so. I'm 5"4 and around 205lbs myself -even though I really do like this machine- I do have concerns myself that it shakes a bit and I worry that I am too big even though I weigh less than the max. Your money would be better spent on a machine designed to support your body-unless you lose 15 lbs before ordering it. I know that sounds awful for me to say and I do not wish to hurt your feelings or offend you-I just don't want you to invest in something that might break on you or not work well for your body type. Best of luck, whatever you do decide.

As long as both of you aren't actually on the bench at the same time you should be fine...it's very sturdy. I weigh around 190 and have benched 325 with no sign of structural fatigue to the bench.
