Has anyone tried to use this for a claw foot tub with shower ring? If there is no wall to stick the suction cup to, will this still work?

You can tighten the top apparatus quite a bit to secure it. The suction cup mainly helps to keep it balanced and flat against the wall. As long as you had the weight on it evenly distributed I would think if would be ok without using the suction cup. Just a best guess though-no personal experience.

You may need to run some water first. Suction cups won't work very well on a dry tub.

Personally I don't think it would if you are referring to the old claw foot tubs. The curvature of the side would probably cause it to kick out toward the outside & not be stable. It is a wonderful grab bar. You could always try it & if it didn't work send it back.

No. It's made to be mounted in a horizontal position on the tub, or on the deck around the tub. Why would you want the water stream directed back at the wall? Or a shower hose that wouldn't stay in the holder? Frankly, your question makes no sense.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work. This is the first one that I have tried that does. I have smooth walls in the shower and was never able to get anything to stick for longer than a month. This one has held since I purchased it. Perhaps the suctions themselves are not good? I also cleaned the surface with alcohol and let it dry completely before putting it on. I also have quite a few things in it and it's not showing any signs at all of loosening.

Its definitely a 45 degree angle that sticks up. If I were you, I'd get a multi shelf to install at the end of the tub so stuff isn't showered on all the time. If this is just a stall only, the same if you have a flat wall.

It'll work in this scenario. In fact, the one I have hangs on the shower head and it doesn't rest against the wall. As long as the arm of the shower head doesn't lean forward on the part in which you're going to hang it on, you'll be fine. e.g., otherwise it'll slide off.

I think it should work. it will hook over the rounded rim of your tub, and the bracket is down lower, and it has a nob that tightens it. If your rounded rim at top is too narrow , The width if the top part that rests in the top edge measures 3 1/2 inches. If the top rounded rim of your tub is smaller, Im sure you could wedge a piece of wood or plastic in to make it fit. Hopefully, maybe someone who has a claw foot tub, and has the bracket, will answer your question. I hope it will work for you because It is very sturdy, and so helpful. Goodluck. Sally

I would doubt that this tub bar would work on you claw foot tub, however you would be the best of that by looking at your tub and the dimensions and picture of the tub bar. Good luck!

It requires screwing at the ends. It gives a bit of range. I was able to squeeze it in a less than 5-foot opening (wall-to-wall is 5 ft. but then tile reduces this dimension by about 1/2 inch). I think it would work well on drywall, but I needed it to be on tile to be in right position for shower curtain to fall into tub properly.

Command sells a hook/strip that is rated for wet areas--it's a different kind of strip than what you'd use on a wall. Amazon sells it and so do some of the big box stores; however it is very hard to find in the stores so you may be better off getting it directly from Amazon. It's not rated for as much weight as this jumbo hoook, but we've had no problems using it to hang up the rubber tub mat to dry. We even bought extra strips and are using four of them to hang up another item in the shower/tub. That item had more surface area so more room for the four strips...

I thinking the moisture from the shower may prevent it from sticking securely, I guess if your able to screw it into the shower wall, It should work perfectly

You might be able to use a suction cup, but I didn't. I had it over a shower head, the pipe was a little larger so it didn't fit perfectly, but never slid down. And no never slipped over the shower head.

I think that is what my landlord has in my bathrooms. I got it on and stayed for a few weeks then it fell right off. I thought it should work on any type of shower material. You use silicone glue stuff to make it stay up. I really doubt it really works good on any surface to be honest. It's really crappy product.

Yes, but you probably will have to get a clawfoot tub shower kit similar to the one at this link: http://www.vintagetub.com/asp/product_detail.asp?item_no=RM168C&utm;_id=IDK15 . While not cheap, it comes with everything you need: shower curtain rod, shower head, hand held shower head, etc. Shop around & you may find what you want that's less expensive. We bought a similar one and it looks great and works like a charm! Good luck!

its made for a tub to the ceiling, not tall enough for shower stall, so better using it only for tubs to the ceiling hope this helped

[edited original response--oops!] This is a simple cover that doesn't have screws or any kind of suction quality to it so it WILL move around if it is covering a central drain or any drain that your feet come in contact with. In our tub/shower the drain sits directly underneath the tub faucet, so my feet never go there when showering (or else my shins would be hitting the tub faucet--ouch). It works great for us because it's in this 'semi-protected' spot. But if you have a central drain you walk on, you might want to look for something else.
