Lumex Padded Knock-Down Transfer Bench – Padded Transfer Bench with Backrest and Side Arm, 300 lb Capacity
The Lumex Padded Knock-Down Transfer Bench is a padded transfer bench for people who have trouble stepping over the side of the bathtub. You sit down on the bench outside the tub, then slide across into the tub without lifting a leg over the wall. The seat and backrest are cushioned, water-tight and easy to clean, and Graham-Field rates the bench for 300 lb, evenly distributed.
As a padded tub transfer bench, it’s built on an anodized aluminum frame that’s light, durable and rust-resistant. A side support arm gives the user something to hold during the transfer, and the seat height adjusts from 18 to 22 inches in 1-inch steps.
It’s also an easy padded shower transfer bench to live with. It’s reversible for a tub that opens on the left or the right, it goes together without tools, and the knock-down design comes apart for the trip to a second home or a family visit.
Why Choose the Lumex Padded Transfer Bench?
Stepping over a tub wall is one of the riskiest moves in the house for someone with weak legs or poor balance. A transfer bench takes that step away: sit, swing the legs over and slide. The Lumex padded bench adds a cushioned seat and backrest, which is a big help for users who sit through a whole shower or who find a hard plastic seat uncomfortable.
The aluminum frame won’t rust, the side support arm helps with the slide across, and you can set it up without tools. As an authorized dealer and provider, we ship it fast nationwide and deliver it to your door. Questions about fit? Call us at 585-505-6665.
Who Is the Lumex Padded Transfer Bench Best For?
This bench is a good fit for:
- Seniors and adults who can’t safely step over a bathtub wall
- People recovering from hip, knee or back surgery who need to bathe seated
- Users who want a soft seat and backrest instead of hard plastic
- Caregivers who help with bathing and want the user seated the whole time
- Families who need a bench that comes apart for travel or storage
Our article on the top 5 benefits of owning a shower bench for elderly users covers how benches help with daily bathing.
Who May Need a Different Bench?
Choose a different model if the user weighs more than 300 lb (Lumex also makes the Imperial Collection Transfer Bench, rated for 400 lb, and you’ll find more heavy-duty options in our transfer bench category). A bench isn’t the right tool for a walk-in shower with no tub wall, where a shower chair fits better. If the tub wall is higher than the bench’s 22-inch top seat height, call us before you order.
300 lb Weight Capacity
Graham-Field rates the padded bench for a maximum of 300 lb (136.08 kg), evenly distributed. Sit down on the outside portion of the seat first, then slide across in small moves rather than dropping onto one end.
Cushioned, Water-Tight Seat and Backrest
The seat and backrest are cushioned for comfort and water-tight, so they don’t soak up water, and they wipe clean easily. The seat measures 24 inches wide and 16 inches deep, per Graham-Field. Lumex notes the backrest isn’t designed to hold the user’s full weight, so it’s for leaning back, not for pushing against.
Seat Height Adjusts From 18 to 22 Inches
The seat height adjusts from 18 to 22 inches in 1-inch (2.5 cm) increments. Each leg has a push button that clicks into the hole you choose; set all four legs to the same height. Set it so the user sits with feet flat and knees at about hip level, and make sure the seat sits above the tub wall so the slide across is level.
Side Support Arm for Sideways Transfers
A side support arm gives the user something steady to hold while sliding across. Per Lumex’s instructions, the end with the support arm and the two suction-foot legs goes inside the tub, and the two legs with flange tips stand outside. The arm clicks into place and comes off by pressing its push buttons, and the backrest mounts on whichever side suits the direction the user faces.
Reversible for Any Bathroom
Tubs open on the left or the right. The Lumex padded bench reverses to suit either layout, so it works in nearly any bathroom.
Knock-Down Design With Tool-Free Assembly
The bench goes together quickly with no tools, and the knock-down design comes apart for transport. It ships in a carton about 26 x 16.9 x 9.1 inches with a shipping weight of 12.5 lb.
Padded Transfer Bench vs. a Molded Plastic Bench
Molded plastic benches with drainage, like the Graham-Field Lumex Maxi-Drain Bath Transfer Bench Side Arm, drain quickly and are simple to rinse. The padded bench trades some of that for comfort: a cushioned seat and backrest that’s easier to sit on through a long shower, especially for thin or sore users. If comfort is the main complaint about a current bench, go padded. If fast drying matters most, a molded seat may suit you better.
Common Problem → Lumex Padded Transfer Bench Solution
Problem: Mom had a knee replacement and can’t lift her leg over the tub while standing. She tried a plastic shower stool, but it was hard, she couldn’t get into the tub to use it, and she was scared of slipping.
Solution: With the padded bench, she sits down on the part of the seat outside the tub, holds the side support arm and slides across on a cushioned seat with a backrest, then lifts each leg over the wall slowly while seated. The seat height adjusts from 18 to 22 inches to match her, and the frame won’t rust in the shower.
“Should someone be with her?” Lumex says users with limited physical abilities should be supervised or assisted, so plan on a helper nearby, at least at first. A handheld shower head makes seated bathing easier still.
Sizing & Fit
Measure before you order:
- Tub wall height. The seat adjusts from 18 to 22 inches and should sit above the tub wall.
- Floor space beside the tub. Graham-Field lists the bench at 29 inches overall width and 23 inches overall depth.
- The user’s hips. The seat is 24 inches wide and 16 inches deep.
- The user’s weight. The maximum is 300 lb, evenly distributed.
Not sure how it will sit in your tub? Send us your measurements and we’ll check.
Care & Cleaning
Lumex’s instructions say to clean the bench with a mild soap and water solution, rinse it with clear water and dry it with a soft cloth, and to make sure it’s well rinsed before use. Never use organic solvents, abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. Check the fit and tightness of all nuts, bolts and knobs weekly, and replace any rubber tip or suction foot that’s torn, cracked, worn or missing right away.
What’s Included
The bench comes with the frame, four adjustable leg extensions (two with suction feet for inside the tub, two with flange tips for outside), the cushioned seat, the backrest and the side support arm. Depending on how it’s packed, you may need to attach the legs, backrest and arm, all without tools, using the push-button connections.
Warranty
Graham-Field’s product page and spec sheet list a three (3) month limited warranty for this bench. The warranty statement printed in the current instructions covers the frame for five (5) years and tips, wheels/casters and handgrips for three (3) months. Call us at 585-505-6665 and we’ll confirm the terms that apply to your order.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a padded transfer bench?
It’s a bath bench that sits partly outside and partly inside the tub, with a cushioned seat. You sit down outside the tub and slide across, so you never have to step over the tub wall.
How much weight does the Lumex padded bench hold?
Graham-Field rates it for 300 lb (136.08 kg), evenly distributed. For a heavier user, choose a bench with a higher rating, such as the Lumex Imperial Collection Transfer Bench at 400 lb.
How high does the seat adjust?
The seat adjusts from 18 to 22 inches in 1-inch steps. Set it so the seat is above the tub wall and the user’s feet rest flat on the floor.
Is the padding waterproof?
Graham-Field describes the cushioned seat and backrest as water-tight and easy to clean. Rinse it and let it dry after each use.
Can it be set up for either side of the tub?
Yes. The bench is reversible, so it works if your tub opens on the left or the right.
Which side of the bench goes in the tub?
The end with the support arm and the two suction-foot legs goes inside the tub. The two legs with flange tips stand on the bathroom floor.
Do I need tools to put it together?
No. Assembly is quick and tool-free: the legs, backrest and support arm attach with push-button connections, and the knock-down design comes apart for transport or storage.
How big is the seat?
The seat is 24 inches wide and 16 inches deep. Graham-Field lists the whole bench at 29 inches overall width and 23 inches overall depth.
Does it have a side arm?
Yes. A side support arm helps the user steady themselves during the sideways transfer.
Can I use it in a walk-in shower?
It’s made for a bathtub, where part of the bench sits outside the tub wall. For a walk-in shower, a shower chair is usually the better fit.
What warranty comes with it?
Graham-Field lists a three (3) month limited warranty on the product page and spec sheet. The warranty statement in the instructions covers the frame for five years and tips for three months, so ask us and we’ll confirm the terms for your order.
How do I clean the padded bench?
Use a mild soap and water solution, rinse with clear water and dry with a soft cloth, as Lumex’s instructions say. Skip solvents, abrasive cleaners and scouring pads.

Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Return Policy
At MedCare Mobility, we understand that purchasing medical and mobility equipment is an important decision. Our goal is to make the ordering, delivery, and return process as clear and straightforward as possible.
Because many of the products we offer are large, specialized, or shipped directly from manufacturer and distributor warehouses, shipping and return requirements may vary somewhat by product and brand. The policy below explains what you can generally expect when ordering from MedCare Mobility.
Shipping & Order Processing
We ship medical and mobility equipment to customers throughout the United States. Orders are processed as quickly as possible, and tracking information is provided once available.
Processing Time
Most in-stock orders are processed within approximately 1–3 business days. Processing may include order verification, warehouse preparation, packaging, and coordination with the manufacturer or distributor.
Some specialty equipment, made-to-order products, oversized items, or products shipping directly from a manufacturer may require additional processing time. Any estimated processing or lead time shown on an individual product page should be considered part of the expected fulfillment timeframe for that item.
Transit & Delivery Time
Once shipped, many standard orders arrive within approximately 3–7 business days. Larger medical equipment, freight shipments, specialty products, and certain manufacturer-direct orders may require additional transit time.
Tracking information will generally be emailed once the shipment has been processed by the carrier. If you have questions regarding the status of your order, please contact us at info@medcaremobility.com.
Alaska, Hawaii & Special Shipping Areas
Orders shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, and certain remote or limited-access areas may be subject to additional shipping charges. If an additional charge is required after your order is reviewed, we will contact you before proceeding whenever additional payment is necessary.
Freight & Oversized Equipment
Hospital beds, patient lifts, large recliners, ramps, and other oversized medical equipment may ship by freight rather than standard parcel service. Unless a specific delivery service is stated on the product page or order, freight delivery does not automatically include inside delivery, assembly, installation, or removal of packaging.
30-Day Return Policy
We want you to feel comfortable ordering from MedCare Mobility. Most eligible products may be returned when a return is requested within 30 days of delivery, subject to the conditions and exclusions outlined below.
Eligible products generally include:
- Electric and power wheelchairs
- Manual and lightweight wheelchairs
- Mobility scooters
- Walkers and rollators
- Patient lifts
- Wheelchair ramps
- Hospital and homecare beds
- Eligible medical mattresses
- Geriatric and medical recliner chairs
- Overbed tables
- Bathroom benches and shower chairs
- Other eligible medical and mobility equipment
Return eligibility can vary by manufacturer and product type. Products specifically identified as non-returnable, custom, made-to-order, or otherwise subject to special return terms are governed by those terms.
Return Authorization
Please contact us before shipping any product back. Returns must first be approved and issued a Return Authorization (RA) and the appropriate return shipping address.
You may request a return by emailing info@medcaremobility.com or contacting our customer service team through the live chat on our website.
Please do not return merchandise to an address shown on the original shipping label unless specifically instructed to do so. Many products ship directly from manufacturer or distributor warehouses, and the correct return location may be different from the original shipping location.
Condition of Returned Merchandise
To qualify for a return and refund, the product must be returned:
- In brand-new and unused condition
- In its complete original manufacturer packaging
- With all manuals, components, hardware, accessories, and included materials
- Without damage, modification, assembly wear, stains, odors, or other signs of use
- In resalable condition upon inspection by the receiving warehouse or manufacturer
We strongly recommend keeping the original box, pallet, protective materials, and packaging until you are certain that you intend to keep the equipment. Large medical equipment can be difficult or impossible to return safely without its original packaging.
Restocking Fees
Approved returns are subject to a mandatory restocking fee, generally ranging from 15% to 20% of the applicable product price. The exact restocking percentage varies depending on the manufacturer, brand, and type of equipment being returned.
These restocking charges are assessed to us by the manufacturer or distributing warehouse when merchandise is returned. MedCare Mobility does not add the fee simply as a return penalty; when the manufacturer requires the charge, we must pass the applicable amount through as part of processing the return.
If you would like to know the applicable restocking percentage for a particular product before ordering, please contact us and we will be happy to help whenever that information is available from the manufacturer.
Return Shipping & Shipping Charges
The customer is responsible for shipping charges associated with the order when making a standard return.
Customers are responsible for arranging for the approved merchandise to be returned to the return address provided with the Return Authorization. In certain cases, we may be able to provide a prepaid return label or coordinate return transportation for your convenience. When provided, the applicable shipping cost may be deducted from the final refund.
Because some medical equipment is oversized or requires freight transportation, prepaid labels or carrier call tags may not be available for every product. Our customer service team will provide the available return instructions when your return is authorized.
Non-Returnable Products
For health, hygiene, safety, customization, and manufacturer-policy reasons, certain products are not eligible for standard returns.
We currently do not accept returns on:
- Parts & accessories
- Wheelchair cushions and support accessories
- Patient lift slings
- Custom or made-to-order products
- Products specifically identified as non-returnable on the product page
If a non-returnable product arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, please contact us promptly. Non-returnable status does not prevent us from assisting with a legitimate shipping damage, defect, warranty, or fulfillment issue in accordance with the applicable manufacturer and carrier procedures.
Damaged or Incorrect Orders
We take shipping damage seriously and will work with you to help resolve legitimate delivery issues.
If your product arrives damaged, please notify MedCare Mobility within 48 hours of delivery. Whenever possible, retain the shipping carton, pallet, packaging materials, and the product exactly as received and take clear photographs of the packaging and any visible damage.
Reporting damage promptly is important because carriers and manufacturers have limited timeframes for filing freight and shipping claims.
If you receive an incorrect product or believe there is a manufacturer defect, please contact us before returning or disposing of any merchandise or packaging so that we can provide the appropriate instructions.
Refused Deliveries
Please contact us before refusing a delivery unless the shipment has obvious significant freight damage and the carrier is documenting the damage at delivery.
A shipment that is refused for reasons unrelated to verified shipping damage may be treated as a standard return. Applicable restocking and shipping charges may therefore be deducted from the refund.
Return Shipping Deadline
Once a return has been approved and return instructions or a return label have been issued, the merchandise must be shipped within 72 hours unless MedCare Mobility provides different instructions in writing.
This is particularly important when a return is approaching the end of the applicable return period. Returns shipped outside the authorized timeframe may be refused by the manufacturer or warehouse and may no longer qualify for a refund.
Refund Processing
Refunds are processed after the returned merchandise has been received and inspected by the applicable warehouse or manufacturer and the return has been confirmed to meet the return requirements.
The applicable restocking fee, shipping charges associated with the order, and any other authorized return-related charges will be deducted from the amount eligible for refund.
If returned merchandise is used, damaged, incomplete, missing original packaging or components, or otherwise returned in a condition that prevents the manufacturer or warehouse from accepting it as new and resalable merchandise, the return may be refused or the refund may be reduced in accordance with the manufacturer’s assessment.
Custom & Made-to-Order Products
Products identified as custom, configured, made-to-order, special-order, or manufactured specifically for the customer cannot generally be canceled once production or manufacturer processing has begun and are not eligible for standard returns.
For custom products, cancellation may only be possible during the initial processing period and before production or customization begins. Because production schedules vary by manufacturer, we encourage customers to contact us immediately if a change is required.
If a custom product arrives damaged or has a legitimate manufacturing defect, we will work with the manufacturer to pursue the appropriate resolution, replacement components, repair, or other available remedy under the applicable manufacturer policy or warranty.
Questions Before Ordering?
Medical equipment can vary considerably in size, configuration, compatibility, and intended use. If you are unsure whether a product will work for your needs, we strongly encourage you to contact us before placing your order.
Our team is happy to help review product specifications, dimensions, options, compatibility, and available manufacturer information so you can make a more informed purchasing decision and reduce the possibility of needing a return.
For shipping, return, or product questions, contact us at info@medcaremobility.com or speak with us through the live chat on our website.
