An "economy commode chair" is a general term for a more affordable, basic commode, which can be a standalone bedside commode, a shower chair with a commode pail, or a frame that fits over a standard toilet. These chairs are designed for individuals with mobility issues and prioritize essential functionality and lower cost over advanced features.  

Key features of economy commode chairs

Portability: They can be a portable, standalone unit (bedside commode), a shower chair that can be used in multiple locations, or designed to fit over an existing toilet. 

Basic function: They include a pail for waste collection and often armrests for support. 

Construction: Some models may have a folding frame for easy storage, while others might be more permanent. 

Cost-effective: As the name suggests, these models are typically the most budget-friendly option for basic commode needs. 

Variations

Bedside Commode: A portable toilet that can be placed next to a bed for easy access. 

Shower/Commode Chair: A chair that can be used in the shower and also functions as a commode, often with wheels and a removable pail. 

Over-the-Toilet Frame: A frame designed to fit over a standard toilet, providing a commode-like function without needing a separate pail. 

3-in-1 Commode: A versatile model that can be used as a standalone bedside commode, a frame over the toilet, or a shower chair. 

To use an Economy Commode Chair, first adjust it to the correct height, ensuring all legs are level and locked. Then, either place the commode pail inside or, if using it over a toilet, remove the pail and place the frame over the toilet bowl, making sure any brakes are locked. To sit, approach the chair from behind, reach for the handles, and carefully lower yourself onto the seat. To stand, use the handles to apply equal pressure and push up gently.

Before you use the commode     Adjust the height: Sit on the commode and measure from the back of your knee to the floor. Add (2) inches ((50) mm) to this measurement for the correct seat height. Make sure all legs are the same length and the locking pins are secure.  Check stability: Gently push the chair to ensure it is stable before sitting down.  Position the pail: If using it as a bedside commode, insert the pail. Some people add a few inches of water to the pail to make cleaning easier and reduce splatters.  Use over a toilet: Remove the commode pail. Lift the toilet seat and lid, then center the commode chair frame over the toilet bowl, ensuring the splash guard is in place and any brakes or wheels are locked. 

To get on and off the chair

Sit down: Back up to the chair until you feel it behind your knees. Grasp the armrests with both hands and slowly lower yourself onto the seat. 

Stand up: Place equal pressure on both armrests and push up to stand, being careful not to move the chair. 

Use assistance: If needed, use a walker to get close to the chair, then use your hands to find the armrests and slowly lower yourself. 

After use

Empty and clean: Remove the commode pail and empty its contents into the toilet. Rinse the pail and wipe all surfaces of the chair with a disinfectant regularly. 

Dispose of wipes: Use a waste bin for any disposable wipes or other non-flushable items. 

Inspect regularly: Check the chair for wear and tear, especially the rubber tips on the legs, and replace them if they show any signs of damage.
