We were replacing this exact model.  The previous bar was mounted on the back of a door and the stopper in the door hinge malfunctioned so that the bar hit the back wall of the shower and bent the rod itself.  (It's a stupid set up, but we inherited it.)  
The previous towel bar was otherwise in great shape after being in place for at least 15 years.  I left the mounts in place and just replaced the rod part.

It is not the highest end tower bar, but fine for our purposes.  The construction seems to be the same as the previous one.  I  like the non-fussy style. If the replacement lasts as long as the original, it is a definite winner.

So 5 stars because it was "just what I wanted."
