Inspired by the Art Deco movement and the 1920s, Locarno is the revival of iconic sophistication and elegance. Geometric octagonal form recalls the monumental period and will make a bold statement of authenticity and artistic appreciation in any living space. Available in five different finishes, Locarno will enable endless creativity, opening the door for uniquely glamorous interior spaces. The Locarno 36-inch wallbar is a perfect solution for multiple users. The sliding handshower holder allows you to easily move the shower to the correct height, but also allows you to use the handshower freely to clean the shower or wash a pet.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an antique "Pedestal Base" cast Iron tub with a ceiling mounted curtain surround. The Locarno 36" Wallbar allows me to mount a hand held shower head which is typically found on this vintage tub. The Wallbar has a sliding cradle which supports the shower head at any height desired by the bather. The cradle locks at the chosen height by a quarter turn of a simple lever. The Wallbar comes with a 63" chromed flexible hose which connects to the tub diverter faucet valve at one end and to your favorite shower head on the other end. The shower head connection fitting on the hose is tapered and just drops easily into the sliding cradle. The Wallbar installation is straight forward. A drilling template is included for convenience and installation instructions are included, although they are fairly simple with little amplifying information, such as drill bit sizes etc. Locarno recommends a qualified plumber do the installation, but any "Handy" person with common household tools should be able to install it. Locarno also cautions that the Wallbar not be used as a hand hold as it is only secured to the wall by two (2) wood screws. (screws and Molly inserts are included) Overall, the Wallbar is attractive with a nice finish and well suited for its intended function. Rusty. RI. Wed Apr 14 2021
