FRANKLIN BRASS D8024W Tuscan Ceramics 24 Towel Bar, White

Needed to replace a broken towel bar in a vintage 1950's bathroom.

While the original followed the color scheme of the area, this

generic white bar was the answer. Amazing to me, IT WAS NOT EASY TO

FIND. After some time searching, I found this one inexpensive -

and a possibility. The bar holders (ends) were the same style as most

'50s fixtures. They arrived promptly (I ordered two in case this should

happen again before I or the house disappears). Installation was simple,

cost reasonable, delivery on time...and a perfect solution to keep the

bathroom in its proper time warp. Good comapny to deal with -

though the only one. I think, that still had this sort of item in

stock. A+

I had an exisitng towel bar that snapped under the weight of the bath sheets my sons like. I ordered this as a replacement and it was easy to install. I inserted a wooden dowell in the hollow center to make sure this one won't snap like the previous one did.

I redid my bathroom with all porcelain accessories, & this looked in the pictures like the old time towel bars. It was a pretty good price too, so I ordered it. The actual towel holder is cheap plastic, which I'm sure would be easy to crack although it hasn't happened yet. The holders are not good; a metal plate is screwed into the wall with anchors. The holder actually slides down onto the metal plate. This would be fine if it was a tight fit, but it is not. The instructions say to bend one corner of the plate if the fit is not tight enough, but I could not bend it much at all, certainly not enough to make it tight-fitting, so I purchased a special glue & just glued it on. It will ruin the drywall under it if I take it down, I realize, but did not know another way to secure it properly. Even having done this, one side does not want to go down flush on the wall & stands out a little, which doesn't look very nice.

I would not recommend this towel bar to anyone. Pay a little more & find one that looks better & holds to the wall better.

I thought the price on this looked very attractive. They get there by including a cheap plastic towel bar on what are attractive porcelain ends. Not wanting cheap plastic in nicely tiled bathroom, these are going back. It was only after a I read a customer's review that I saw "plastic". It's not in the Amazon description and it should be. That would have saved me a return.

BTW, if you don't mind a plastic bar, the set at least looks nice.

The item was exactly as described but I was disappointed that they waited an entire week before shipping it. It finally arrived only one day before out-of-town company got here.
