    The product, in the report: Super Grip Bath Bar - Suction Mount

    The lady I care for who is 95yrs old very much still able to do things for herself was asked by a lady who was there to try and make things in her home safe so as to prevent falls etc to get a suction cup handle for her shower so she would have something to help her get into the shower safer. I myself was not so sure that anything with a suction cup would be so safe. But she insisted I get it for her because that is what she was told to do. I bought it at Bed Bath and Beyond and left it for the lady to install she had told her not to let anyone else do it because it had to be done a special way so I left it there for the lady to do. I got a call from the lady I care for and she was a little upset because she had gone to the bathroom and noticed the handle which the lady had just put on on the shower floor. I went and tried to put it on myself and I did I also pulled on it and hung on it myself to make sure it was secure but i did tell her I really don’t think you should trust it and to be careful. I got another call the a day or two later from the lady I care for telling me that she went to take a shower and luckily didn’t depend on that handle to get in because once she was in she touched it and it fell to the floor. This is a very dangerous product people think they can depend on it for supporting themselves to enter the shower or bathtub and if they did they could have a very bad fall along with a very serious injury if it didn’t kill them. I took this product back to the store and told the checker this was a very unsafe product not that they were concerned at all they just gave me the money back. I am very concerned this product could do so harm to a person who is depending on it to get in to the bathtub or shower
