In this detailed review, we put the Gotega Grab Bar through rigorous testing to evaluate its strength and safety. Despite claims of supporting up to 500 pounds, our tests reveal significant flaws in both design and materials. Watch as we demonstrate the bar's performance in various scenarios, including plywood blocking, 2x8 blocking, and tile installation.
We use the ASTM F446-19 test method for our strength test, showing real-time results and failures. Our analysis covers the inadequacies of the provided anchoring system, the subpar quality of the metal used, and the bar's inability to meet the ASTM and ADA standards.
We also provide insights into proper Grab Bar specifications and alternatives that meet safety standards. Our goal is to inform and educate on the importance of reliable and safe bathroom fixtures.
Key Highlights:
Testing the Gotega Grab Bar in different wall substrates.
Demonstrating the failure at just 85 pounds against a claimed 500 pounds capacity.
Discussion on ADA standards and ASTM testing methods.
Examination of the bar's diameter, width, and anchoring system.
Recommendations for better and safer Grab Bar options.
