Abstract
A seating and kneeling assembly includes a front base member, a rear base member, a seat and a top member. A top side of the front base member defines kneeling pads for receiving knees of a user. The rear base member at a forward portion is connected to the front base member at a rear portion. The rearward portion of the rear base member has a substantially wedge-shaped configuration narrowing from a front to a rear thereof for accommodating the lower legs and feet of the user along opposite sides of the rearward portion. The seat is mounted to an upper portion of the rear base member for receiving buttocks of the user. The top member is supported by upper and lower support members at a height above a front portion of the front base member. A top side of the top member defines a rest for receiving forearms of the user. A bottom side of the top member is for resting on a top of a wall of a bathtub. The assembly also includes an elongated shaft on the forward portion of the rear base member which is telescopingly movable within a channel on the rear portion of the front base member for relocating the front and rear base members toward and away from one another. The assembly further includes an insert support member connectable with and between the upper and lower support members to provide the top member with additional height adjustment above the front base member.
