Safe-er-Grip Changing Lifestyles Suction Cup Grab Bars for Bathtubs & Showers; Safety Bathroom Assist Handle, Chrome, 16 inches

Great product and quality. It's very easy to install, and the suction is very strong. I got this for my mom, who has slipped and fallen in the shower in the past. This, along with non-slip floor stickers, puts my mind more at ease. I installed on a clean smooth tile shower wall. It's not meant to support full weight on it, but more for having something sturdy to hold on for balance.

Update no 3 on 2/10/2025: This bar lasted far longer than I anticipated based on experience with other suction type grab bars. It remained firm for more than two years in a fiberglass shower surround until I removed it when I moved in late 2024. It only fell off the wall 4 times during the entire period it was installed. I kept the bar and have it in storage while I am temporarily staying with family before making a more permanent move soon. Even though I originally purchased it for my late husband who needed something for balance, I found it helpful on occasion as well.Update no. 2 on 5/16/2024: I'm very pleased with the durability of this bar. I've now had it in our shower for 18 months (as of next week), and I can count only 4 times that it has fallen off the wall. Three of those occasions were after I had cleaned the shower surround and, I think, I'd not replaced it firmly. The last time was because I needed to clean the shower surround (my bad). The springs, as far as I can tell, are holding up well and help to maintain a good suction. The last bar purchased for my loved one was from a different manufacturer and had only lasted about a year; it was not maintaining strong suction and falling off the wall multiple times a week. This bar, by comparison, has outperformed our experience with other suction bars we have purchased to date.Update 10/24/2023: We've had this suction grab bar for nearly a year. I think it has fallen a maximum of maybe 3 times, but those happened AFTER I had cleaned the shower surround and I think I did not firmly reattach the bar in those instances. The springs have held up well. The bar helped make showering so much easier for my loved one with neuropathy. I've even found it handy for myself when dealing with mild vertigo for a short spell. One additional benefit I've observed after a year of use is that the smaller diameter of the grip portion of the bar is well-suited for those of us with smaller hands/shorter fingers than some of the other grip bars. For balance, this has been a solidly helpful aid.I bought this to replace the Carex suction grab bar my family member had been using for about a year; the springs were no longer functioning properly and the bar kept popping off the shower surround wall even after cleaning and using alcohol wipes). I wanted something that would be relatively secure with good sturdy springs, as my family member has balance issues due to neuropathy in his feet and legs, and has trouble with his balance. Also, my family member was coming home after an extended time in the hospital and a skilled nursing facility for physical rehabilitation, and I was concerned that he might even try to use the bar to help get up and down from the shower chair. I'm happy to say that, so far, this grab bar has served my family member's needs well, had held secure and has not loosened or popped off once in the entire time we've had it. I do check it regularly and have been impressed with its hold. The diameter of the bar is a bit smaller than the ones we've previously used, which actually makes it easier to grasp and hold. My family member has remarked several times how much he likes the 16-inch length (longer than prior bars we've used) and the bar's strong hold. As we are unable to install permanent safety rails in the studs because we rent, the Safe-er-Grip Bar has served as a solid alternative.

this product is great. easy to install with just a snap. anyone can do it. easy to remove as well. once its on it as strong as the ones that are permenant. great for taking with you to where ever you go that doesnt have a grab bar. pay attention to the directions about where to install. YOU CANNOT INSTALL ON TILE. not sure about walll. I installed on flat hard surface around tub and shower area.

So far pretty good, but full disclosure I am using it on my patio door. Our patio door has bad rollers which are not replaceable due to it's age. This works great for this, the door is very heavy, the suction is strong and so far is holding up well, although it has only been up about 3 weeks. Installed easily, I like the longer size, my husband is tall and I am short, so this gives us options.

My wife needed something to help her to keep her balance when she steps out of the tub. This provides this. It is easy to install, grips the ceramic tile well, and is sturdy.

This is a perfect option for someone who needs assistance with balance in the bath/shower. My parents are visiting and my mom, who has RA, has a very hard standings and getting in and out and needs to hold a bar for some balance. She has one in her home that was installed but for visiting, this was a perfect temporary solution with no install/drilling holes needed. Took me a couple times to get it to lock in place. I really had to use a lot of pressure and weight against it until it was hard to push the lock mechanism down, then I knew it was sticking. Once locked, it does not move. I bared quite a bit of weight on it to check. I can't speak on it in terms if someone is lifting themselves up with it, say from a chair and using a lot of weight baring, but for balance, hold and light pressure it is perfect.

Bought this for the wife to prevent falls in the bathroom. We use primarily traveling in hotel rooms and recently on a cruise ship. It provides a handy and sturdy grip when needed.

Doesn't always hold to the tile surface, so be careful. I don't recommend using this to pull yourself up, but to stabilize yourself while standing is better. I used this handle to help me decide where to have grab bars installed in our shower and water-closet, it was a great learning tool. It also makes a nice moveable towel rack. Best if used on clean, dry, smooth flat surfaces, such as glass, tile, quartz, plastic. Will not stick to textured walls.
