I am mixed about this towel bar.   I gave it 4 Stas because it looks very nice up and it was the right size and depth for what we needed.   One thing that was extremely upsetting was the brackets that mount to the wall had black grease on it which made a mess on the wall and had to clean off the brackets with a lot of rubbing and scraping.  The wall had to be cleaned as well.  Not sure why any towel bar would have this grease on it.  Otherwise well made and a bit pricey.
