Description
The Lumex Imperial Commode is a 600 lb heavy duty commode whose arms drop independently below seat level and lock automatically when raised. Its extra-wide platform seat is built for bariatric users.
- 600 lb capacity
- Independent drop arms that auto-lock raised
- Extra-wide platform seat
- Meets HCPCS E0168
- Steel heavy duty construction
The Imperial is the commode for bariatric bedside care: 600 lb of capacity, an extra-wide platform seat, and arms with a genuinely thoughtful mechanism. Each arm drops independently below the seat for transfers from either side, then locks automatically when raised, so a partially seated user never leans on an unlocked arm. It carries HCPCS E0168 for extra wide heavy duty commodes. In the Lumex steel range, nothing sits above it.

Why Choose the Lumex Imperial Commode?
Bariatric commodes are judged at the transfer. The Imperial's independent, auto-locking arms make it the safest steel commode Lumex builds.
- Auto-locking arms – Arms cannot be left unlocked by accident – A real safety mechanism for dependent transfers
- Independent arm drops – Transfers work from either side – Room layout stops dictating care
- 600 lb with real width – Capacity and seat size arrive together – Rated and usable are the same thing here
