Well, I bought it for my Moms small bathroom for a place to put everything needed with easy access.  But it is not strong enough for her to hang on to when getting out of the bathtub.  She is 93 and wants to do everything herself.  So, I put it in my room, which  is the guest bedroom .  Great to have the towels and bath needs right outside the bathroom, so, I won't have the bother of getting them for who ever wants to visit!
