The Original Asia 18" Teak Shower Bench

I bought this to use as a shower/bathroom seat for our wet room having looked at many others - and although more expensive this is absolutely well worth the money. It’s very easy to assemble (minimal assembly required) and is extremely sturdy. It has a wide, comfortable seat and is very well made - it’s a really good-looking, well designed high quality seat. Being solid teak it’s water resistant, and is easy to care for. Highly recommended!

We love this stool. Strong sturdy, good height and finished well . We will be buying another one for our second bathroom

I hesitated but now it has arrived, I have no regrets. Even the box and packing are as superior to normal boxes, as the stool is to other stools (thick solid cardboard, interior foam molding and box side adhesive cushions; rattle free). This really stands out. It comes disassembled but the 6 long hex screws are easy to fit with the provided alan key, though I had a longer one of my own to speed things up even more. It is very stable and has reassuring 'heft' and finish. The fittings, overall thickness and density, are as you'd exect at this price point. I'd think an annual teakoiling will be sensible but it needs nothing the first year. This is a very substantial, solid teak, curved-not-molded elegant seat, water resistant, suitable for shower rooms (useful to clean your feet, shower safely or sit and dry your hair). It's easy to lift but heavy at 8kg (17.5 lbs). The 4 heavy duty rubber feet are +/- 10mm height adjustable. An investment that will last. It shows its quality at a glance. It'll suit a (larger) shower, wet room or even a muddy porch. You should consider the space availble carefully: The 300x450mm (12x18") seat takes more space that you might instinctively think for a mere stool. It'd not be ideal to sit on it's short side due to its curve. At 45cm (18") high it is slightly higher than shorter people might find easy for long sits. RECOMMENDED

Solid, easy to put together (6 bolts), looks stylish not medical and comfortable to sit on. It has adjustable feet as well which is handy on a sloping wet room floor. It arrived a week before expected as well which was a bonus.

This shower / bathroom teak seat is a quality product. Well made, lovely colour, very substantial and with a really smooth finish to the wood - no rough edges etc. easy to assemble too, only six stainless steel screws to fit, all holes lined up perfectly and comes complete with an Allen key. I was initially concerned at having this order fulfilled and delivered from the USA, but it arrived ahead of schedule and was very well packed. It’s a great price when compared to similar items with other suppliers. Highly recommended.

Arrived late, but received a warning email. Looks great, but not as dark as on the picture.

I read through the reviews and thought this sounded good and was also stylish - it appeared to be stylish whereas all of the other 'shower seats' looked flimsy and with no thought put into the design. Of course decent design and function costs and this is not a cheap item but i thought it worth the money. It was delivered in a heavy substantial box and and very well packed along with everything needed to put the four components together including 6 stainless steel bolts, a decent allen key and full instructions. It took less than 10 minutes to put together. First impressions were just how well it had been manufactured and also pleased to see four rubber type feet which are adjustable to allow for adjustment for uneven floors and also protect the surface it is standing on. Both my wife and I are well past retirement age and need to use a seat in both a shower or a bath and this works well in both situations. In fact we are both so impressed that we have just ordered a second stool for our downstairs bathroom!

After foot surgery 3 weeks ago and no weight bearing whatsoever showering was daunting. I tried 2 stools and both were awful, the first one became wobbly after only one use, the screws actually worked loose. The second purchase was a perching stool, oh lord it was so slippery and I had trouble actually staying on it. This last purchase was just brilliant, it’s very heavy but sturdy, really comfortable to sit on, doesn’t take up much room and looks fantastic too and will look great anywhere around the house after I’ve recovered. I can’t say enough positive things about it, yes it’s expensive but worth every penny and a great piece of furniture for years to come. Don’t bother with the cheaper stools, with this investment it’s absolutely the best thing when you can’t stand for long in the shower.
