Tools and Hardware Reviews of Moen YB2824BN Eva Brushed Nickel 24-Inch Towel Bar
Customer Review: Works great with a minor change of parts
Summary: 5 Stars
From reading the other reviews, it seems that many of the problems are due to the included anchor (standard expanding metal molly bolt type). I'm not a fan of these, because once expanded you basically have to drive them through the wall to remove them. Instead of using these anchors, I did myself a favor: I removed the included anchors from the plastic mount and instead used threaded drywall anchors (EZ Ancor 75lb rating, look like big plastic screws, the top flange is exactly the same size as the recess in the mount, and the screws that come with them fit the hole in the mount perfectly). With these installed in the wall, the mounts screw down nice and tight - solid, absolutely no wiggle or play, no worrying about how many turns you need, and I can unscrew these if I ever want to remove them from the wall in the future. (Even though you technically don't have to, I predrilled holes for the anchors to keep them neat.)
Note: the 75lb rating plastic anchor splits when the mounting screw is driven in completely. The EZ Ancor line also includes a metal anchor that, like the older plastic model, doesn't split, and is rated at only 45 lbs. Although better than the molly bolts, the non-splitting threaded anchors don't hold nearly as solidly as the splitting ones.)
I had mixed results with the "clicking" of the ends to the mounts: with the 24-inch models, all audibly (but quietly) "clicked". The 18-inch models did not (or didn't click loudly enough for me to hear them - the tabs aren't all that big). However, all are very snug fitting, and I'm pretty confident that they'll hold up. Make sure that you triple-check your measurements between centers (18" rack has 18" centers, 24" rack has 24" centers) and that you have the tabs on the mounts on the correct side to match the holes in the end pieces.
Overall, a pretty solid design (much better than those cheap setscrew, sheetmetal mount racks that they replaced), and they match the Eva faucets as well.
