Cross-shaped towel with fleece on one side and waterproof/non-slip backing on the other. The towel features a velcro strip, allowing you to transport it rolled up or folded using the velcro section. The fleece is available in different colours.
I haven’t been able to visit a swimming pool for a long time because of the pandemic, but I finally got the chance to try this towel while staying in a forest cabin with a private hot tub.
The towel covers your wheelchair seat and back, allowing you to get straight into your own wheelchair while still wet. It is very important for me that my wheelchair cushion remains dry, as a wet cushion increases the risk of pressure sores enormously. So I’m pleased to report that this towel kept my chair completely dry. It’s the perfect way to go from the shower to the pool, and I also believe it will come in handy for short trips when staying in hotels. This way, I don’t need to bring separate equipment after the shower and can transfer directly from the bath/shower chair into my own chair without getting everything wet.
It is a little larger than a normal towel, but it needs to be to cover the large area of most wheelchairs. My chair is fairly narrow, but its cross-shaped design prevents it from getting caught in the wheels and allows me to fold the excess towel over my lap.
