Customer Reviews of Medline 24 Inch Grab Bar, Knurled Chrome
Customer Review: it's enough to make me take a bath every week whether I need it or not
Summary: 5 Stars
Medline makes very solid knurled "grab bars" for the bathtub or shower; and these truly come in handy--even if you're not disabled. The knurled finish simply means that there are small ridges on the actual bar to help you hold onto the bar even when your hands are wet; and it's a big plus to have this bar to hold onto when you're getting in or out of the bathtub or the shower. The rubber pads do indeed come with this bar and so far the screws that came with this product have definitely been rust resistant. Great!
Another reviewer writes that they were annoyed by the way these bars are packed for shipping. Unfortunately, however, it's really the best way to send these through the mail. The sturdy and thick packaging prevents damage to the bars while post office employees throw your package all over the place. Moreover, the extra packaging prevents again damage to the bars as the box containing them gets bumped around on a postal tractor trailer truck or in the crate bin of an airplane.
On the plus side again, these bars hold my weight which, although it's more than I'd like it to be, is thankfully less than 250 pounds so I feel quite safe using them for support in the tub. It's good to be able to take a shower in the bathtub and hold onto this bar while I turn around in the shower so that I don't slip and fall. I suppose if you use these bars in the bathtub strictly for helping you to take a bath safely then you may want to attach the bar a bit lower so that you can reach it. If you have a rather small shower stall is very the bar could limit your space; but you'd really have to have a small shower stall since these safety bars don't stick out much more than 3 inches.
I honestly can't think of a single negative thing to say about these safety bars. My handyman was able to do the installation very quickly and that's another plus. I highly recommend these grab bars for the bath or shower by Medline.
Customer Review: Medline Knurled Grab Bars are great and a bargain.
Summary: 5 Stars
We had several Medline knurled chrome grab bars installed in our shower for safety since I am a polio survivor who needs to be careful about falls. Our handyman had an easy time installing them (both vertically and horizontally on all sides of the shower) and they've been a great boon. The knurling makes them safe to grip even when your hands are soapy and they anchored very securely to the wall behind the shower tiles with the included screws after holes were drilled into the tiles.Customer Review: Shower Grab Bar - Chrome

Good quality product delivered on or before the promised date. My only disappointment was that I should have read the product details more closely and I would have realized that the product only comes with wood screws and I had a heck of a job screwing those into the new shower tile!!

My husband and I are both disabled and unable to walk. Both of us can barely stand long enough to transfer. We have 4 of these grab bars and depend on them in every room of the house. We just ordered 4 more to make our transfers even safer in other places.Customer Review: Grab Bar

I found this grab bar to be very attractive and of excellent construction. I would recommend it without reservations. Deliver was prompt and installation was very easy.
