Review on Enhance Bathroom Safety with Moen R2270 Grab Bar Chrome Bath Grips by Erin Thomas

My wife's illness has progressed so far that she can no longer stand on her own and even with my help she has difficulties getting in and out of the tub. Almost 5 months ago I plastered two of these railings on the walls of a ceramic-tiled bathtub. I waited so long before testing these handrails to make sure they work as advertised. I installed an 18" grab bar on the bulkhead under the shower head for use when standing and getting in and out of the tub. A second 24 inch bar is lowered on the back wall to make it easier for her to get in and out of her shower seat or bath lift. To attach the slats to my bathtub walls, I bought a ceramic tile drill to drill a clean hole in the ceramic tile before using the masonry drill to penetrate the plaster wall. I put plastic wall anchors in the holes and used the screws that came with the bar to attach the bars to the walls. The grab rails give my wife the support she needs to get into the tub and then sit on one of the seats for a shower or bath. Now she feels more secure in the tub and I am happy with the results and the quality of these handrails.
