> 3 dayIt works great and we’re glad we have it. Putting in the tiny set screws were a challenge. Just not enough clearance to get your hands in there to tighten it down. Other than that we love it.

> 3 dayI love having a grab bar that doesn’t look like one. The only thing I don’t like is that it is so close to the wall that I can’t use the jumbo toilet paper rolls I usually buy. Even with the next size down, the toilet paper rubs against the wall when you put a new roll on. But this is not something that would keep me from buying it again.

> 3 dayThis is really strong. Because of the way my (tiny) bathroom is laid out & the major leg surgery I had, I have to pull on it horizontally (i.e. like I am pulling it out straight out of the wall) to get up from the toilet. Not sure if it was designed to take that much pulling force in that direction, but it feels rock solid. The toggle screws that hold it to drywall are the biggest ones I have ever seen & have an ingenious design. The only reason I gave it a 4 star rating was a) it required a 1 1/4” (not sure of size) hole saw & I couldn’t find one in the garage, so a trip to Ace hardware & b) once you have drilled the holes with the hole saw, there’s not much play in the mounting brackets to allow for adjusting to width or level. So you have to be spot on for cutting the holes. Mine is a very tiny bit off level, but not at all noticeable. I just need to make sure I dont leave a torpedo level lying around in the bathroom—wouldnt want a guest to check my work ;-) BTW, It’s bigger than I thought it would be from the pictures; barely had enough clear wall space to install it in my tiny bathroom. A roll of toilet paper looks sort of lost on it, but I appreciate the size when I have to grab it

> 3 dayWe purchased 2 grab bars - this bronze one and a brushed nickle bar - one for each bathroom. One of them, I installed myself. We had converted an outdoor porch into a bathroom for my son (who has special needs - balance and mobility being one of his needs). I just screwed it into the wood wall. Its stable, sturdy, and its as strong as that wall - it will hold just about any weight. The other was to be installed in another bathroom & was a bit more complicated. I could not for the life of me, figure out the the plastic locking device that goes through the wall. So, I watched the video - not helpful. I now understood how, but somehow couldnt figure out why this would work. I was afraid it wouldnt hold weight. So, I had my husband watch the video. He understood & was convinced it would work & be sturdy. So, we began. This bar was to be installed on the side of a cupboard by our toilet. I took the shelves out of the cupboard & had my husband niche them to fit around the 2 2x4s that I installed vertically inside the cupboard. My husband then followed the instructions in the video & installed the grab bar onto the side of the newly reinforced cupboard. This bar is sturdy & holds my husbands weight (230 to 250lbs - depending on how motivated hes been). He has a trick knee on one knee & his other is just plain messed up & surgery helped, but wasnt a cure. Its sturdy - even when he has to put all of his weight on it. I think they are more attractive than other bars Ive seen, & the ability to put toilet paper on them makes them even more useful. As far as ease of installation, I would say that that depends on what you plan on installing it on. We installed both of ours at an angle, for ease of use - due to where they ended up located compared to the stool.

> 3 dayThis grab bar works perfectly for anyone who needs a little extra help from the commode! Especially someone with a prosthetic leg! The combination reduces having other protruding fixture for toilet paper. Looks nice too!

> 3 dayMounting system ingenious and effective. This install required through the drywall via 1-1/4 holesaw at one end and stud mount at the other end, but end result very strong. Would buy again. Thank you Mr. Bezos.

> 3 dayWas intimidated since I needed this in the bathroom but was told by several men that I’d have to hire a professional. ( they couldn’t do it ). And of course there are never any studs where you need them. Not only were the instructions easy to follow but there are only a few parts to install. This 76 year old women installed it in 20 minutes. Works great and looks good
