[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OT is excellent idea. Our toilets are not next to walls so permanent grab bars not an option. I had knee replacements. Got taller toilet and used the commode bars alongside toilet. You don't have to use the seat on some brands. I was in my 60s and in pretty good shape other than knees. [/quote]

There are bars that flip down from the wall behind the toilet.[/quote]

Yeah well nice if you can do that. My toilet id ticked under a banjo top counter with a mirror on the wall. Not everyone has non-tiny bathrooms. 
Sure wall bars are first choice but there are safe second choices. [/quote]

Sorry to sound/be argumentative.
My point is just that some have bathrooms different from modern homes and if there are not suitable walls, you don't have to sh#t by your bed.  There ARE commode that can have bucket removed and fit over toilet in tight-fitting areas. A PT, OT, or knowledgeable supply place like Preston's can advise. Measure space first.[/quote]
