I have a bar that is attached to the tub, very sturdy and helpful for
stepping in and out of the shower. I did try one of the suction cup handles,
but the tiles are small and there wasn't room for the cup to fit completely
flat, so worthless in my case. I gave it to a friend and told him to use it
as a phone when he wants to "drink and dial" which he had a tendency to do.
