Grab Bars for Bathtubs and Showers, 12 Inch Shower Handle Strong Suction Cup Grab Bar for Shower Chair Stool, Bathroom Safety Bar for Seniors, Elderly, Handicap (2 Pack)

Needing a temporary bathroom safety solution, I decided to try these suction grab bars. They quickly attach to tile surfaces, providing decent stability for my father as he navigates the shower and bathroom. Installation is effortless—just flip the suction latches, and they're secure. I routinely check them for strength, as suction can weaken over time. So far, they've held firm and provided much-needed support during showers and daily routines. They aren't a substitute for permanent grab bars but offer peace of mind and immediate stability. For temporary use or traveling caregivers, these are an affordable and practical choice, significantly enhancing bathroom safety with minimal effort.

Extremely sturdy-well made!

Bottom line: use with caution. Beware of wall attachment loosening with time. Test frequently. I have bought two of these bars. My experience is mixed. The first held well for months then lost its grip and no longer can be attached securely. The second which I bought after the first failed, is not subjected to water in the shower, unlike the first, and is still holding strong months later. With both I took great care to make sure that the smooth, the glossy ceramic tile was meticulously clean: I removed hard water and soap deposits, polished with an automotive polishing compound, and wiped down with alcohol. I then pressed hard against the suction cups when engaging the fastening lever. I found that pressing hard is essential. Be sure to use to use only on meticulously clean, glossy, ceramic tile or glass. You should periodically test the grab bar attachment. If you reattach, meticulously clean the wall and suction cups. Be cautious If the bars must be relied on when highly loaded, as would happen when arresting a fall in the shower or grabbed by a heavy person.

Very easy to use bought the 2 pack will use one in walkin shower at home and use the other to travel I am fairly stable but like the security of having when traveling

Work great! Amazing suction. Feel very secure

They come off the wall too easily, which is dangerous for an old person.

Used for my dad for his shower. Is particular shower stall you couldn’t screw anything in to it because there was nothing to grab onto behind the plastic so this was the next best step, and given the fact that he was struggling to walk and get into the shower stepping over the tub I bought this two pack Which worked pretty well if you clean the tile and the shower stall properly and make it free of grease and particles you have a better chance of having better section. There was once or twice that the handle released not from the shower stall, because that was a flat smooth surface, but on the tiled wall, because there was gaps where the grout was so you have to angle And place directly on a flat surface without any air gaps and you’ll be all right for the most part I only had once or twice that the suction came off on the tile part thank goodness it didn’t lead to a better fall, but that always has to do with who’s using it how they’re using it, and whether the depending on all the weight to people on that Ice are more as a little bit of stability not putting your whole body weight pulling on it I don’t think it would support anyone and my dad was only about 92 . Pricey for something plastic and not permanent. If it had better suction I’d say this was a perfect product but it’s not. They are easy to lock and unlock.

It's probably obvious to most people but until you get them home you don't realize that if these suction cups don't exactly line up on a perfectly flat surface of your shower wall, they will not stick and they will be dangerous to use. I have a shower and tub insert with faux grout lines, and because of those indentations, the suction cups are too close together to miss one of those lines. This would be true if you had actual grout lines too. In the end we were able to get one handle installed with a suction cup on two square faux tiles and once we did, they were practically unmovable. Great product, excellent suction, just make sure you have enough flat surfaces without grout lines to install them on. UPDATE: even installing on flat tiles, these eventually fall off. My husband put them on again and tugged and they seemed strong but later on we were in another room and heard something fall and it was the handle falling off the wall again. So I think you cannot have even the right size tiles for these handles, they will absolutely not stay.

Misleading advert, only received 1 handle instead of 2 as advertised.

Only holds for a short period
