DMI Suction Cup Grab Bars for Bathroom Safety and Stability

TG: It works well for what it is, but comes loose after awhile, such is the nature of suction cups, making it less than useful. not good if it comes loose just when you need it .......

Nathan Alexander: Well, we loved this for 4 months. It had great suction and very firm grip. Unfortunately, it decided to stop working during month 5. The lever enabling the suction no longer works. The suction cups don't engage. I think they're warped. Of course, we're past the return date. But we were really hoping for a long lasting product.

“The Critic”“The Critic”: Why I gave the rating I did:
I love the modified look to match my shower and not the “old fashioned” look. I like the size of the handles. I love the textured grip on the handle. They have pros and cons:
Pros: appearance, size, safety features of lock/loose indicators on the handle, texture grip on handle for non sliding with touch of wet hands...
Cons: they come loose more often than I thought they would even after reading the reviews prior to purchasing. People stated 3 months, but I check BEFORE I get into the shower every time and the indicators show loose along with the movement...just pull the trigger to relock.
The pros outweigh the cons in my opinion.

KMcK: I have MS with associated mobility and balance issues. My shower has nothing to hold on to and is very risky for me. I have had this Grab Bar for 3 months and it makes all the difference in the world. Now it is safe and secure when I take shower instead of dangerous.

My shower walls are cultured (i.e., synthetic) onyx, so they are solid and completely smooth. My husband installed the Grab Bar easily. I needed him to reposition it once which was also easy. There has been no need to maintain it. It just stays there and does it's job.

I only use it to steady myself. I don't pull on it, so I have never put much force on it. For the amount of weight that I have put on it, it has been completely solid.

This Grab Bar is a significant improvement in quality of life for me, in addition to easy installation and no impact to my shower walls. I highly recommend it for anyone who needs extra stability support in the shower.

UPDATE: After more than 3 months staying solidly in place, the grab bar loosened from the wall. My husband reinstalled and it's solid again.

IMPORTANT: When installing the grab bar, pay close attention to the...

Rick: This suction handle works much better than we expected. We bought this model because we wanted one with the little suction indicators, but that feature turned out to be fairly useless for us in practice since the indicators are very small and hard to see where we have the handle mounted, especially in the relatively dim light in the shower. However, the handle itself works extremely well. Our shower tile have a smooth finish, although they do not have an entirely flat surface. Even so, as long as we apply the suction cups in the main part of the tiles (e.g., away from the edges which tend to slope a little), this handle stays stuck. At first application, it stayed in place for several weeks without losing any perceptible suction, and it only came off when we took it off to clean the shower. After putting it back in place, it has stayed in place until removing it for cleaning every time. We could not ask for better performance from a non-permanent handle!

A few tips: 1) Make sure you have tile that is smooth and flat enough that a suction cup can stick to them; 2) Remove any trace of soap deposits on the tile where you want to place the handle...

Hinder: Does not dot the job, falls off the wall on a regular basis, now lives on the shower tray, and used when the shower is used. Very disappointed, would not recommend to anyone
