I love the design of this towel bar. I have 3. It's just the design we were looking for - a nod to traditional design. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars if the installation situation. The screw that holds the decorative piece onto the bracket comes loose (from normal wiggling as you dry your hands), and it's annoying to have to keep tightening it. The most often used towel bars come loose, but not the ones that hold the glass shelves, since they don't get wiggled. In the 2.5 years we've had it, I had to tighten it twice the first year, and more often since then.
