Product Description

The LEON is a robust, wide-format electric shower and care chair designed specifically for plus-size residents, offering an extra-large seating area and an enhanced maximum working load of 230 kg. Like the JAMES and MILO, it is built to the same high standards of aluminium construction and ergonomic design, ensuring both resident comfort and caregiver wellbeing throughout bathing and hygiene routines.

The LEON’s wider seat and backrest cushions (545 mm standard width) are crafted from soft, high-quality PUR foam and shaped to distribute pressure evenly, reducing discomfort during extended care sessions. A 3D headrest provides additional support, while the electrically stepless tilt function – controllable via a flexible cable remote with optional programmable memory keys – allows precise and repeatable positioning without manual adjustment.

Caregivers benefit from a lockable nursing opening for intimate hygiene care, as well as shower head bracket (mountable on either side) as standard, and optional bedpan holder and shower head bracket (mountable on either side). The two preset function keys – “Park” and “Clean” – streamline transitions between care tasks, saving time and reducing cognitive load for busy care teams.

A 25° tilt function, 220 mm height adjustment range, and minimum seat height of 560 mm allow the LEON to be configured for residents of varying stature, while the magnetic charging system keeps the chair reliably powered. Compatible with both NORA and CARLO active and passive lifts, the LEON integrates smoothly into existing care ecosystems.
