Moen YG5118CH Voss 18 inch Designer Grab bar, Chrome,

This stylish grab bar provides two functions, safety for my older guest and occasionally serves as a towel bar by my kids. Its brush nickel finish adds to the polished look of our bathroom and goes well with the Moen products installed.

A very nice grab bar that feels very secure in the box. However theres no real room for adjustment. If youre going to install this as a vertical bar, theres less issue, however if youre planning on a horizontal install make sure to exactly map out where your studs are. Unfortunately in many of our more recent house farm builds, the studs arent always placed the correct distance apart. While you can use anchors to increase the stability of the grab bar, its not something Id feel comfortable anchoring to drywall considering the purpose of the bar. Thanks to my studs being closer to 17 apart, I installed this vertically instead.

It looks like a beautiful grab handle!

Moen designer grab bars are some of the best out there - we have installed quite a few different types/versions both inside the shower/tub, around the toilet and throughout both bathrooms. These look as good as they function. Based on the prior installations, I have no concerns over tarnish - some are now 7 or even 8 years of use in a high humidity bathroom without any sign of problems. Installation can be tricky depending on your prior set-up and skill. For those wishing to retrofit, these should be installed into a base plate to get maximum hold. It is possible to install into only drywall and they will be sturdy but not sturdy enough. In our case, this is being installed in a remodeled bathroom so we had the ability to plan in advance. Nice size, good grib and attractive.

Compact and convenient to use for work and travel.

Like every Moen product weve ever bought, this grab bar is excellent. Its most important quality is that it truly works for its intended use. It is super sturdy in itself and it comes with mounting screws that make the installation equally solid. Frosting on the cake is its great appearance. The metal is smooth and a deep, mellow, burnished finish and color. Im no shill for Moen, but their motto Buy it for looks. Buy it for life. is absolutely right on. We have two styles of grab bars in our two different bathrooms and I like them equally. The other one is a big, round tube of a grab bar that is also sturdy. This one has a more elegant look but loses nothing in solid, reassuring strength despite its relative elegance. Once you get a look at the mounting design of this grab bar youll see what I mean by solid. Highly recommended.

Love the design but traded in for nickel finish

This is quite heavy and impressive. I installed this in my shop in various positions to figure out how we want it in the bathroom. It supported me quite well and I’m much larger than I would like to be, though not as large as this time last year. I did use larger screws than those provided, though. I may not have needed to, but I’ve been doing that for many years and see no reason to stop. The bar is attractive and the diameter is large enough to get a good grip on. You must attach this to studs. Attempting to do this with any connectors and drywall will not end well when really needed. We have a shorter Moen bar in another bathroom and it is used on a regular basis.

First, this is a great bar to have in the bathroom to help with getting up from the toilet or in the shower to help in there. Its also great to just have mounted to help in keeping ones balance in the bathroom. Its constructed very well, and looks very nice when mounted. Its also easy to install with basic tools and holds up to what it does. With all of that said, the price of this is stupid and not worth it at all. This is a bar to help people in the bathroom that really need the help and they are charging over $80 dollars for this bar. Seriously, it isnt worth it and you can find other bars that are just as good but cost much less. Dont waste your money on this when you can get something else much cheaper.
