MoenLR8724D3GOWB Bathroom Safety 24-Inch Designer Safety Bathroom Grab Bar with Curled Grip, Old World Bronze

Nice and strong!

The grab bars installed WITH the purchased separately anchors are known to be excellent quality and a very strong safe installation. Other manufacturers bars MAY be as good, but I have never seen any that have the strength that the Moen bars have when installed with the special anchors.The bars plus the anchors are expensive but you are not putting up a towel rack. These grab bars need to keep people from falling down in the tub or shower. I even replaced the towel rack just outside the shower with a Moen grab bar. It makes a good towel rack but also holds up as a proper support getting in and out of the shower.

This is a solid and well-thought out design with good materials. The best part is that the mounting plate has many holes and slots for a lot of flexibility in mounting. This means you can mount it into a stud with a higher probability of success and for a variety of angles..It feels very stable in the wall and in its own construction. Make sure to screw into a stud or ask a contractor to do it with the best anchors. Note that this does *not* include the fancy SecureMount anchor system, that is sold separately..I chose this model because of the mounting plate and because the covers to hide the screws looked a little more homey and not so industrial like the ones we see in public bathrooms. Unfortunately these covers have large gaps in them which, depending on your application and their angle, can collect some water. For use in a shower, I recommend sealing them up with clear caulk. Other than that, the design looks very nice and should fit with modern or classic bathroom decor..The screws it comes with are long and strong but the heads do tend to strip a little. I still used them. It also includes washers which is nice..I got one with the Curled Grip and one without. There isn't a functional difference. I like the look of the smooth one the best. If you are really concerned with grip-ability I would look for another design that is knurled..If you are installing this for a specific person, make sure to ask them their preferences!! A slight tilt (10-30 degrees) makes it much easier to grab and does not cause so much wrist strain. A 45 degree angle is not really necessary for many applications (like near toilet). Ask your loved one to sit or stand where the bar would be used and mark where their hand can reach and note the angles. This will make a big difference. I have had multiple surgeries and I learned this though first-hand experience. There are so many handicapped bathrooms and showers where the bars were just useless to me because I couldn't reach them..Overall, recommended and will likely buy again as relatives need them.

Very nice

The brushed nickel coordinated with my sink faucet just fine. I had worried it might night be a close enough shade as to me it looked like it had a slight yellow undertone in the pictures online. I really wanted one that had a more modern, sleek look. But pragmatism won for this descent price. It does the job. White it looks very hospital or hotelish to me, i am sayisfied. Just wish it didnt help make my bathroom look like the ones in every nursing home in the free world. Too geriatric looking for me, but I couldn't find what I was looking for. And this is solid, functional, and not exactly a complete eye sore. I am not handy, so mounting it was a but of a hurdle. But I'd recommend it.

The grab bars are wonderful; yet when the 24" ones arrived, they were scratched. Then when I reordered two more, one came in scratched bad and one just a little. Ended up only keeping one out of 4 I ordered but it works wonderful!

This item is very well-made, very strong once installed correctly. Perfect for my elderly mother-in-law.

Escutcheon or cover plates make the grab bar unstylish

LIKE>>>>>Grab bar for safety use on bathtub wall...

Como mencioné, es elegante, minimalista, cómodo (agarre de 1+1/4 in), caro pero de calidad aceptable, el color es muy agradable combinándolo con otros accesorios y detalles del baño o zona donde se vaya a instalar.Recomiendo sellar un poco las conexiones a la pared con silicón o sello de fuerza baja (en las bridas y tapas de la misma), se ancla bien aunque en ciertos acabados puedes requerir diferente longitud de anclaje o herramientas sobre todo en tablaroca, en mi caso lo instalé en un muro de concreto y quedó muy firme, claro limpiando y preparando las perforaciones para anclarlo a la pared y usando los diámetros correctos de perforación y "taquete".Aunque el producto es caro, su apariencia lo refleja, la barra es ligera y está aprobada para personas con alguna discapacidad, esto claramente, si sigues las normas e indicaciones para una correcta instalación, las tapas de las bridas quedan muy bien ajustadas dan una apariencia limpia y uniforme, quizá se merece 4.5 de 5 estrellas, pues el único "pero" que le pongo es que el calibre del asidero debió ser algo más grueso, pero no digo que sea insuficiente. Es un producto recomendable y se siente bastante sólido.

Very sturdy.

Our shower is in the tub with a step up. Should have installed this years ago. Don’t wait for a fall.

Installed in new bathroom. Looks great with a nice finish. Well made, feels substantial with grooves in the back that make it easier to hold. Very happy with this Moen product.
