Pinniped Paediatric Commode
A commode sized for children and teenagers, with a low adjustable seat so their feet rest flat on the floor.
Why this one
Feet flat on the floor
The seat adjusts from 10.5 to 14.5 inches, so a child's feet rest flat on the floor rather than dangling.
Grows with the child
That range means the same commode keeps fitting for years rather than being outgrown quickly.
Chest strap support
An adjustable hook and loop chest strap supports a child who cannot sit unaided or who tires.
Moulded armrests
Moulded plastic armrests give a comfortable place to rest and something solid to push up from.
Bucket with handle and lid
A 7.5 quart bucket with a metal carry handle and cover, so it is emptied without spills.
Light and non-marking
At 9.5 lbs the whole chair moves easily between rooms, on non-skid tips that will not mark floors.
Red or blue
Available in red or blue, so it looks like a child's chair rather than hospital equipment.
Welded steel frame
A welded steel frame with a snap-on toilet seat and contoured back, built to take daily use.
About this product
A commode sized for children and teenagers, on a welded steel frame. Adult commodes are simply too big for a child, and sitting on one that is too large is both unsafe and undignified.
Feet on the floor
The seat adjusts from 10.5 to 14.5 inches from the floor, which is the whole point of a paediatric commode. A child needs their feet flat on the ground to feel secure, to brace, and to use the toilet properly.
A child perched on an adult commode with their legs dangling cannot do any of that. They feel unsafe, they cannot push, and they will avoid using it, which creates a problem well beyond the equipment.
It grows with them
That adjustment range means the same commode fits a small child and continues to fit them for years. On equipment for children, where everything is outgrown quickly, that matters.
Support and safety
An adjustable hook and loop chest strap gives support for a child who cannot sit unaided or who tires. Moulded plastic armrests give somewhere comfortable to rest and something solid to push up from. A contoured back, a snap-on toilet seat, and rubber non-skid tips that hold the frame still without marking the floor.
Practical for a parent
The 7.5 quart bucket removes and has a metal carry handle and a cover, so it is carried and emptied without spills. The whole chair weighs 9.5 lbs, so it moves easily between rooms.
Available in red and blue, which sounds trivial but is not. Equipment that looks like a child's chair rather than hospital kit is easier for a child to accept.
