Since the seat is a circle instead of a "U" shape like other shower chairs, can private parts be easily washed?

Depends: if the person is seated far forward, it's easy to wash/wipe the rear; and the opposite is true, too; but a U shape would definitely be easier. The other thing about this chair I don't like is the bar on the back: it's not curved enough out and I've had to put padding on it to make it any kind of comfortable.

It is kinda oval. I do not bathe my wife, but her attendant says that there is no problem in washing her private parts. It is assumed, of course, that you remove the bowl first.

The whole tray slides easily off with one hand (there's a latch under at the front). Or you can just lift off the top tray that sits in the main tray when there is not much mess. The different seat heights have been particularly useful. I took the seat cover off to wash and I actually like the chair without it, just white, so it has remained that way. The whole chair is very easy to clean, and it really looks clean because its not cream or yellow toned plastic.

As far as I can tell, the answer is basically no, not while someone is sitting on the commode seat. The seat itself must be raised in order to remove the bucket. A seated person has space between the legs in front and in the back that would permit reaching down for washing but only if they are quite thin in the hips and thighs.

No. We have the shower chair and like it very much. We feel it is safer than most

Yes and yes. However, we have used it as a shower chair without the insert, so that one can clean one's bottom.

you can wash it anyway you want. I have already washed mine. It did not hurt it.

It's very easy to clean , the parts that you need to clean are 3 parts. I washed them in 2 minutes. :)

The instructions don't specifically mention doing so - leaving it up to your discretion. It's machine washable, so it wouldn't be much effort, though.

Since the body of the seat is PVC type heavy plastic and the legs are brushed aluminum, my answer would be an emphatic YES. My mom has been using the chair in her shower for several months and it's showing no signs of rust.

Unfortunately, no. The seat has elastic hooks that hold the cover to the plastic frame which give the illusion that it can be removed and washed but it is permanently connected to the seat at the bottom. I don't know if that makes sense but I learned the hard way that it only looks as if it can be removed.

I have washed it on the hand wash cycle without problems, but I would not recommend this seat. There are to many places for food/stuff to get stuck in the arm rest when not using the tray and the cover is to hard to keep stuff out of the corners. I spent $16 on another seat at WalMart and I love it.

You're only able to remove the pad and the toy koala. I never had any reason to remove any other parts to wash. You'd be able to wash them with a washcloth and soap though.

It can't be removed, but you can wash the whole seat. It's easy to keep it clean.

You probably can. I was concerned about the color myself but it is washable.

the front panel is plastic . lubrication helps the parts from binding. yes can disassemble to wash .

The fabric seat is easily removed for washing and plastic tray can be wiped down with a damp rag, etc. Very easy to clean.

Not hard to keep clean but when I had to HAND wash it because of a pee accident it was a pain.........I just wish it was machine washable that's all, we love the seat. I recommend this seat.
