Splash Defense Transfer Shower Bench with Curtain Guard – 400 lb Transfer Bench
/
Drive Medical Splash Defense™ Transfer Bench with Curtain Guard
The Drive Medical Splash Defense™ Transfer Bench is designed to make bathtub transfers easier while helping keep shower water inside the tub. Its patented U-shaped curtain guard provides a dedicated channel for the shower curtain liner, allowing the liner to remain inside the bathtub instead of hanging outside the bench and allowing water to spill onto the bathroom floor.
The RTL12032KDR combines a stable A-frame design with a durable blow-molded plastic seat and backrest, adjustable height and a reversible configuration for left- or right-hand tub entry. With a 400 lb weight capacity and tool-free assembly, it is designed for everyday bathroom safety and convenience.

Keep the Shower Curtain Inside the Tub
The unique U-shaped cut-out gives the shower curtain liner a place to pass through while keeping the liner positioned inside the bathtub. This helps reduce water spilling onto the bathroom floor during showering and can make the bathing area easier to manage for both users and caregivers.
How the Splash Defense Transfer Bench Works
Key Features
Comfortable Seated Bathtub Transfers
A transfer bench provides a seated way to enter and exit the bathtub for individuals who may have difficulty stepping over the tub wall. Instead of standing while crossing the tub edge, the user can sit on the bench and move across the seat.
The Splash Defense model adds another practical benefit by addressing one of the most common problems with transfer benches: keeping shower water from escaping onto the bathroom floor.
Reversible for Left- or Right-Hand Tub Entry
Bathroom layouts differ from one home to another. The Splash Defense Transfer Bench is reversible so it can be positioned for different tub configurations and preferred transfer directions.
Adjustable Height for Better Tub Fit
The seat height adjusts from 17.5" to 22.5" in ½-inch increments. The dual-column extension legs allow the bench to be fine-tuned to the user's bathroom and tub configuration.
Who Can Benefit From the Splash Defense Transfer Bench?
The Splash Defense Transfer Bench can be helpful for adults who need additional support entering and exiting a bathtub, particularly when maintaining balance or stepping over a tub wall is difficult.
- Adults with limited mobility
- Seniors aging in place
- Individuals with balance or stability concerns
- People recovering from hip, knee or other surgery
- Individuals who need seated bathtub transfers
- Caregivers assisting with bathing
- Bathrooms where controlling shower water on the floor is important
Designed to Help Reduce Wet Bathroom Floors
Water on the bathroom floor can create an additional slip hazard. The Splash Defense system is designed to keep the shower curtain liner inside the bathtub, helping reduce water escaping around the transfer bench during bathing.
