Moen R8712D3GOWB Bathroom Safety 12-Inch Designer Bathroom Grab Bar with Curled Grip, Old World Bronze

When we remodeled the shower in 2009, I did not install a grab bar. As we have aged, I have become concerned with safety. We installed the 16" Moen grab bar on the side wall of the shower at a distance of 36 inches in height. We like the safety grab bar so much, that we have ordered a 12 inch bar to be installed vertically for when you enter and exit the shower. W found many more expensive grab bars, but the bar on many extended beyond the mount. My concern was that the 2 inch protruding bar could catch something. The Moen bar is well made and easily installed with diamond drill bits and the anchor bolts.

With good installer, these are great - good quality, finish match, sizes.

These look great a don’t have the institutional look of most bars in this price range.

Moen is the standard on these kinds of grab bars. These are attractive and solid. This model mounts directly to the wall, with many options for your fasteners/screws. This is not the model where you mount the plates first. I had some trouble getting the faceplate loose.

Movement of the flange cover in the package during handling causes scratches on the chrome handrail Not the easiest to install unless you know how to properly position the cover piece, otherwise a beautiful and functional handrail

The Moen 12 inch grab bars are nice looking, and sturdy. My husband installed 2 of these in my mom’s shower, and she is happy with them. It took him less than an hour to install them. Use Moen SMA1000CH anchor mounts with this bar.

Living in a large city, our house is not what you'd call 'grand'. The bathroom follows suit, but we needed a safety bar for my mother-in-law. Enter the 12" grab bar by Moen. Totally perfect! (Except I should have gotten the brushed steel. Not a fan of chrome). It's small enough not to feel like we live in a nursing home, but large enough to grab if needed. It was easy to install (with tile drill bit) and very sturdy.

Good and sturdy.

I added the grab bar for a powder room remodel. I ended up buying the Bronze grab bar bc I had also purchased the copper faucet and everything coordinated well. I chose this grab bar bc it was reasonably priced and I knew the brand- and I am a complete newbie at looking for grab bars for my parents! The grab bar is solid- thick enough to get a good grasp and to pull up.

Es una barra muy bonita, le añade belleza al baño, buen material y muy útil para personas de tercera edad

I really like that they make me feel safe in the shower. The design is attractive and sturdy.

It was a little to small but looks safe enough
