Anyone know where I can get a shower chair for cheap? Like, almost free? I'm broke but need one for my son. 4951

I know Walgreens and Walmart have them but not nearly for free. Look at Houston freecycle and maybe post a want ad. 4951

Depending on the size of your shower, you can get one of the cheap plastic lawn chairs and use it in your shower. 4951

I don't know if they are still open, but there is a medical supply store that was going out of business and had everything drastically discounted. Maybe you can check there? It's by the Black Eyed Pea in humble. 4951

I have a portable toilet that was only used in the shower. When my
husband broke his leg that's what he used in the shower, it was never
used for the purpose it was meant for.  If you would like it just PM
& you can have. It probably has to be hosed down from being in the garage for a few years but otherwise it's fine.  We never even put the pot that goes under it in. We used that when we had a leak in one of the sinks. 4951

@starryskies67:
Call the Presbyterian church on Kingwood Drive. They have a room with a lot of items like this. I have a couple of friends who have donated and borrowed these types of things 4951

See, I checked Amazon but I guess I didn't look in the right place. I kept seeing benches, but that won't help much. My son has seizures and mini-strokes, so he would need the support of a chair to lean back on. Normally he has them overnight, but he had one getting out of the shower the other day and got pretty banged up. Nothing broken, but scared us all the same. 4951

Then it sounds like the plastic outdoor chair, with arms and a solid back would be your best bet. Those are dirt cheap at Walmart. 4951

I have seizures but can usually tell when they are coming. I had one in the shower with no warning and ended up with injuries. I will try to find out where exactly hubby found this one.
 
I am sorry to hear about your son. Have you tried asking on the epilepsy foundation forum to see if they have insight on the best chair for reasonable price?
