When I had a broken leg the physios gave me a seat that fits across the top of the bath from side to side. Having said that I don't think a chair leg (with rubber feet) would go through the bath unless the bather was a real porker.

Oh, I thought from the title you were after one of those carriages old people had when I was a kid!

To answer your question, it would depend on the quality of the bath and if it was fitted correctly. Most baths have a big piece of chipboard glued to the bottom of the bath to strengthen and allow for supports.

thanks for answers - I think I would leave it to the medical experts you know the guys who install them per se.

Absolutely, they will check the bath for strength and support.
