“The home health care market continues to grow and
eventually most consumers will need bath safety products. But
traditional products that look institutional scare people off. For
new products to be successful, they need to offer style, increased
functionality and be easy to install before today's homeowners will
consider adding them to the bath.”
— Kevin Jones, senior product/brand manager, Home Care by
Moen
“People are asking for products that are stylish,
lightweight, that you don't have to assemble and are a little
smaller but still hold the weight capacity they're looking
for.”
— Linda Maldonado, personal care product manager,
Invacare
“Consumers want function, ergonomic, friendly design
and aesthetics to hide the functional need.”
— Dale Nash, director of standard HME products, Sunrise
