Moen CSI LR2352DCH Home Care 8-Inch Grab Bar with Integrated Toilet Paper Holder, Chrome

Strong yet beautiful - a great combination! As we age, getting up and down requires more effort. This combo toilet tissue holder and grab bar is just the thing! It allows us to have a grab bar that is stylish yet strong. The 8 inch bracket spacing means only one of the mounting brackets can be supported by a stud. The drywall adapters provided looked very nice and strong but the rating is 250 pounds, and I weight 235. I figured I would not tempt things so I attached a piece of maple 1X4 to the studs and attached this bar to the 1X4. It doesnt give a bit when I use it to stand up. I will be putting one of these in for my mother-in-law when I visit her later this year.

This combines two functions and looks interesting. If this is a retrofit project - Moen has solved the problem of no backer board installed in the wall. Moen includes a Secure Mount system with it so you dont need a stud or backer board for it to carry the weight for grab bar use. Needs an inch plus hole and the mount molly goes into/installs through that. The grab bar cover conceals the holes. The carpenters forgot to install the wood backer and new porcelain tile had already been installed - ouch! So discovering the Secure Mount molly system, in the package, was a lifesaver - one side is over a stud and the other side uses the mount. Designed and packaged with the customer in mind - am so impressed.

The holder was installed by my bathroom contractor with very little issues. It looks great and is extremely helpful when sitting down and getting up, as my knees are compromised. Paper on the roll pulls easily (use the over the top roll!) and is super easy to replace when empty. Id recommend this to anyone who needs a little help and also wants a nice looking fixture.

Easy to install, holds Mega size TP rolls, & supports ADA. By the way, the toilet paper roll doesn’t fall off post when tearing off. Love it!

Love the fact that this is a handicap bar and a toilet paper holder. I purchased two. One for each bathroom. very helpful. modern design. attactive.

This is the third house we have moved to and I have ordered this one every time I have moved. I provides an attractive solution for needing a grab bar and tissue holder in one

Very nice to have a handle and a toilet paper holder in one unit. The design is interesting. It is too short to screw to two standard US studs, so it comes with an interesting mount system. You drill 1 1/4 holes in your wall, then slip the mounts in and pull them tight against the back of the wall, like an oversize molly bolt. Screw the plates on the outside of the wall, then use the allen wrench to tighten the set screws in place to hold the bar on the wall. The wall mounts are quite well thought out. The set screws are the hard part of the installation. Theres very little room between the wall and the trim rings. There are three set screws per post. Tightening each screw with an allen wrench was tedious. After installed, it is sturdy and Im glad to have it. It has saved me from falling several times. I believe the load limit is 250 pounds, so its not as strong as a standard handicap hand rail. Arthritis sufferers will appreciate how easy it it to change toilet paper rolls. Slide it right on, no springing rolls, etc. Much easier plus gives you a safe handle.

I found it a nice bonus that this open-ended toilet paper holder that doubles as a hand grip is also pleasing to look at, doubles as a phone shelf (if you balance nicely) and can be an elbow rest. It feels substantial and the brushed nickel I chose has a luxurious finish. It should go without saying that you would not want to screw this into drywall plaster without backing support because it is a grab bar also. I chose this during a bathroom remodel, when the studs in the wall were temporary exposed and an extra, short crosspiece could be installed to allow both ends to be securely anchored.

You dont know you need a grab bar next to the toilet until you do! Placed this in a tiny guest bathroom. Love that it doesnt look out of place since its really a toilet paper holder ;-) A must have for anyone who has had surgery or is up in age and having difficulty getting up and down.

Install was so easy! (26 y/o female with no prior experience) Borrowed a drill and had to buy a hole saw attachment. Maybe took 20 minutes. Hasnt come off the wall yet! Also, I bought this for my mom who hated the idea of handicap-anything and made it more of an interior design project. She thinks it looks great and is safe now.
