HEPO Adjustable Bathtub Safety Rail for Seniors, Grab Bar for Bathtubs and Showers, Elderly Assistance Bathtub Handle Clamp, Fit Most Bathroom Tub, White

This is a very sturdy and well-made item. I used it while my 90-year-old mother was visiting, and it was a good investment. This was good for her to get in and out of the tub. Once in place it does not move. I removed it after she left, and it did not scratch my tub. I plan to keep it since I may need it myself someday. :)

I bought this grab bar because it was the most cost-effective option I could find on Amazon—and honestly, I’m impressed. It looks, feels, and holds just like the more expensive brands. Solid construction, no wobble, and it gives reliable support. We installed it to help my elderly parent get in and out of the bathtub safely, and it’s been a huge help. It’s sturdy, easy to grip, and gives everyone more peace of mind. Great value for the price—there’s no reason to pay more for the same performance.

As a renter, I couldn’t install a wall mounted grab bar. This is quite heavy, to the point that if dropped, it could damage tile or break toes, so someone with good balance should do the install. It’s simple to mount, just slip it onto the tub edge where you want it, and tighten the clamps. There is padding on the side of the clamps. It’s thin, but it does protect the tub’s finish. I do not recommend putting a cloth or towel between the tub and the clamps because it could cause the bar to slip. The weight makes it feel sturdy, and it’s slim enough to fit in tighter spaces, and be almost unnoticeable behind a shower curtain. The build quality seems good, nothing bends or bows under steady weight or pressure. I do not recommend it for fiberglass tubs, as a tight fit or too much pulling might crack the tub. In order to stay put, it needs to have the clamps torqued pretty tight. Bathtubs with angled sides might also be an issue because even a slight angle might alter the grip integrity of the clamps or make the grab bar stick out awkwardly.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I bought this for my parents, it's very sturdy works good

Great handrail, it assisted my elderly mother in law perfectly with needing support to get in and out of the shower.
