Product Reviews of Health Circle Quick-Rail Suction Cup Bath Rail, White, 24" Long
Product Review: Not as good as expected
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this product for my elderly mother to use in my shower and we found that it did not offer the support she needed, also though it had the ribs on it for gripping, they were still slippery.Product Review: Not exactly what I expected
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this for a towel bar and assumed it would be strong enough as it is sold as a safety rail. The problem is my tiles are the small 4" size and the suction cups just barely fit them so if they don't get a good surface they will not hold. I slanted the bar just enough, but still I would not trust this if it was to help stabilize an older person to get in and out of a tub/shower.
Product Review: Not recommended.

I could not get this to even stay on the wall for more than 24 hours no matter what I did. Let alone rely on it to hold one up.Product Review: Perfect Safety Solution for Tile
Summary: 5 Stars
This was suggested by my occupational therapist after my knee replacement. After checking the price at a supply store I found the exact same item on Amazon at a considerable savings and it arrived at my door in 2 days. I recently had a 1980's tub enclosure replaced with a walk-in 5' shower tiled from floor to ceiling. I have handicap bars outside the shower and a built-in seat but realized I needed something to add a little more security due to the size of the shower without risking damage to the expensive tile. The device was put into place in minutes by my son and can be removed at any time. (Avoid placing it on a grout line). )The suction clamps hold it tightly with no sign of budging. It's long enough to accommodate most heights and does not detract from the look of the shower. It can easily be moved or removed by releasing the suction clamps at each end.
Update: This may come loose in time due to soap and hot water and one end might not stay gripped. After six months, I removed it and cleaned the tile and suction ends with white vinegar. It has not loosened again in the last 3 months of use. These should never be depended on to support anyone's full weight. They are more for balance and it still works perfectly for me after a year and a half of use.

Exactly what was needed to assist my 90 year old mother-in-law getting into the tub. Order was received quickly and at a good price.
