Reach for boris when a child needs real postural support to be washed or toileted, not just a seat placed over the pan. The seat shell is anatomically shaped, so it stabilises the pelvis and gives the trunk something to work against instead of leaving the child to hold themselves up.
The shell tilts on a foot pedal, which keeps the carer’s hands on the child. Upright at the basin for teeth and hand washing, tilted back for hair washing or for a child who fatigues partway through. The stainless steel base frame handles years of wet-area use, the seat height adjusts, and a toilet pan means the chair can be used away from the toilet entirely. Options run to a fold-up footrest for easier access, an abduction wedge with an integrated splash guard, a height and depth adjustable headrest, a padded tray, removable seat pads and a pressure relief insert cushion. Schuchmann put boris at GMFCS levels III to V.
Check the bathroom before you commit: the chair needs clear floor space to turn, and the toilet suite has to let the frame come over it if you plan to use it that way.
