Following our previous review of the compact Georgia Walk-In Bath, the Montana Walk in Bath offers a very different solution—designed for those who want the comfort of lying down with the added safety of a motorised seat.
If you’re looking for a full-length bathing experience without the struggle of lowering yourself into a standard tub, the Montana could be the ideal option. In this article, we’ll explore how it works, what makes it different from upright models like the Georgia, and why many of our customers choose it for a more immersive yet accessible bathing solution.

Montana Walk-In Bath: Key Features
✅ Full-Length Design with Powered Support
The Montana is available in two standard UK sizes (1500mm or 1700mm) to replace your existing bath. A powered hard-shell seat gently lowers and raises you, making it ideal for people who want to lie down safely but may struggle to get up unassisted.
✅ Secure Walk-In Door
Choose between a glass ‘vision’ door or a solid white option. The watertight door swings inward and is easy to operate from both inside and out. A built-in seal is guaranteed for life, adding peace of mind.
✅ Built-In Battery Backup
If there’s ever a power cut while you’re in the bath, the Montana’s battery backup ensures you can still raise the seat and exit safely—something many customers ask about.
✅ Comfortable Seating & Optional Soft Shell
Most customers choose the hard-shell seat, but a soft fabric variant is available. The seat is removable and adjustable for cleaning or flexibility.
✅ Safety-First Installation
The Montana includes space for grab rails, anti-slip base options, and a BioCoat antibacterial finish to keep the bath clean and hygienic after every use.

Montana Walk-In Bath: How it Differs from Compact Walk-In Baths
Compared to upright models like the Georgia, the Montana provides:
- A reclined soaking position, rather than seated-only
- A motorised seat for full support during entry/exit
- More interior space—better for comfort, but needs more room to install
- A slightly longer fill and drain time, which can be offset by fast-fill plumbing
This model is better suited to people who want a traditional bathing feel but require assistance getting in and out.
Installation by Age Care Bathrooms
At Age Care Bathrooms, we don’t just supply accessible baths—we install them with care.
Our team handles:
- Removal of your old bath
- Plumbing adjustments for water flow and drainage
- Safe installation of thermostatic taps (to avoid hot water scalding)
- Secure grab rail fitting
- Electrical wiring for seat motor and battery backup
- Testing and handover, so you know exactly how to use your new bath
You’ll also get personal advice on whether the 1500mm or 1700mm version best suits your bathroom space and needs.
Optional Extras Available
The Montana comes with a number of optional upgrades:
- Spa jet system for hydro-massage
- Chroma lighting (colour therapy)
- Bluetooth audio speakers
- Soft-shell seat variant
Grab rails and thermostatic mixing valves
All upgrades are compatible with the motorised seat.
Who the Montana Walk-In Bath Is Best For
This model suits people who:
– Want the comfort of a lie-down bath but can’t lower themselves safely
– Need a motorised seat to reduce strain or reliance on carers
– Can step in unaided but require balance support (e.g. grab rails)
– Want luxury features without compromising on safety
– Prefer a full bath over a shower or upright tub
It’s less suitable for users who require hoist-assisted transfers or need access from a wheelchair, though we offer other models better suited to those needs.
🧩 Final Thoughts
The Montana walk-in bath is a premium option for those who don’t want to give up the pleasure of a traditional bath but need a safer, more manageable way to enjoy it.
With its powered seat, grab rails, and professional installation, it offers the perfect blend of independence, comfort, and peace of mind—all backed by the experienced team at Age Care Bathrooms.
