Mommy's Helper Safer Grip 24"

Installed 2 Grab bars in shower stall for 85 year old mother in law. I was worried that the suction cups would release and she would fall. People advised me against it. They said I should get the ones that are anchored to the walls of the shower. I install these and put my body weight (190lb.) on them and they didn't move. I was actually worried I was going to pull the tiles off the wall. She's a small and light weight lady so I don't think she'll be pulling them off the wall. I check them regularly just in case.

I bought this for my 88 year old father who needs help in the shower. It works very well and he feels more confident. The only negative is that the spacing between the suction cups do not line up vertically or horizontally with his 4" tiles so, we had to mount it on an angle that would allow both suction cups to hit tiles. It will NOT work on those smaller tiles-only the 4" or bigger ones. The price was the best I found anywhere.

My parents are both 89 years old, and I was going to pay someone to install metal safety bars in their shower before I saw this product. I ordered the 24" model for the side shower wall and the 11.5" model which I installed on the front (shower head) wall to help get in and out of the shower. I tried them in my own shower for two weeks to test them, and they stuck like glue. Follow the instructions, clean the tiles with alcohol and do not install over a grout line. You will have to try different angles and locations to find the tiles that the suction cups will center on and not be on a grout line. You must have at least 4" tile that has a smooth non-textured surface. I am extemely pleased with these products because they are excellent for steadying and maintaining your balance in a wet, slippery shower.
