Is the commode bucket removable?

Yes, although I have a tough time fitting the bucket back in properly. It takes patience.

Yes. It is in the top of the bucket. It flips up for lifting . However, as it suggests in the manual, I lift it out using 1 hand for the handle and the other to support the bottom of the bucket for stability. It's very easy to lift in and out of the unit.

Yes, I actually just removed mine. It's made out of a hard foam substance and the whole piece pulls out. It gives about an extra inch of space

Yes it must be flipped up to a 90 degree angle in order to remove the waste bucket. My mom has been very satisfied with it.

Hi, In order to remove the bucket all you have to do is the lift the seat up and take the bucket out. Below is a link to the Product Manual that might be able to help. Link to Commode Manual: http://www.drivemedical.com/media/files/8/11125PSKD-1_hangtag.pdf

No, it cannot be removed without risk to the user. That much if this otherwise useful tool is truly dumb. This said, neither can one remove the buckets if other chairs I have seen. Best use us to have the user sit foward and bend over to provide the needed access for cleaning -- that is the best posture for that function in any case. I hope the picture I paint is clear. Write back if not.

Yes, but it is not designed to actually sit on top of the bucket, as some others are...

No. You must lift the commode seat to take bucket out. The patient must transfer out of the chair first.

Yes, there is. The bottom portion of the unit slides out to reveal a handle inside the bucket. The handle is easy to use but you just have to be steady when you lift the water-filled bucket. Water has a tendency to spill a bit if you don't remove the lower portion with care.

Yes, it is removable. It is also a screen so you could pour a bucket on top and filter out any debris.

It doesn't fall off when you pour water in it or when you touch it. But it doesn't snap in so you can take the bucket off easily.

I just use a little bucket to keep it in, there may be a special holder out there but I'm not aware of it. Sorry.

I have not removed it. I am certain that it is removable. It would not be re-usable.

Yes it is removable but it isn't something i would want to move regularly. I put mine up and left it. I'm only five ft tall so i needed my husband to put it up, else i'd need a ladder. I purchased it because it is portable since we move around a lot.

I don't think so. I believe the splash guard will start slipping down the commode seat but not fit down all the way, leaving to much of the splash guard to try and sit on. Or it won't fit at all. It has been a while since I used the commode; I do remember that the bucket and splash guard is wider than the commode seat so that when you sit down nothing spills over the sides of the bucket. You need the bucket.

yes, the bucket slides in and out with ease. It is a great chair. It was a little big for our small shower but works well.

No... you can remove everything and just have the frame over the toilet if you want to.. the bucket, the seat and even the seat cover can be removed if you need to. We never use the bucket.. just the frame, seat and the splash rim and lid right over the toilet.. Hope this answers your question
