About this product

Who this is for

Best for anyone who cannot comfortably reach their own back, feet or lower legs. Common after a hip or knee replacement, when bending is off the list for a while.

What it does for you

The handle is angled rather than straight, which is what lets it follow the curve of your back instead of poking at it. The sponge is soft foam, so it is gentle on thin skin. Light enough to hold with one hand at arm's length.

Why we love it

One of the cheapest things that changes a day. After hip surgery the instruction is usually not to bend past ninety degrees, and this covers washing your own feet for the six weeks that lasts.

Common questions

Will it reach my feet?

For most people yes, sitting down, without bending past what a new hip allows.

Can the sponge be replaced?

The sponge is fixed to the handle. Rinse it well and hang it to dry and it will last.

Sponge or brush?

Sponge for gentler washing and thin skin. The curved brush if you want more scrub.

What people say about SteadWell

These are reviews of our service, not of this product.

  • Ordered the rollator for my mum after she had a fall. I had a couple of questions before ordering because I wasn't sure which one would suit her best, and Bianca was really helpful. She got back to me quickly and answered everything clearly, which made the whole process much easier.

    Delivery was fast as well, and I got updates along the way so I always knew when it was due to arrive. With everything else we were dealing with at the time, that was one less thing to think about.

    Really happy with the service overall and wouldn't hesitate to buy from SteadWell again.

    Hi Jane, thank you for taking the time to write this. Choosing a rollator for someone else is genuinely hard, especially when you're sorting out everything else at the same time. I'm glad the questions helped you feel sure about the one you picked. I hope your mum is getting on well with it. If the handle height ever needs adjusting as she settles into it, or anything else comes up, just get in touch.
