Customer Reviews for MOEN 90 Degree 8 in. Hand Towel Bar in Chrome

We recently remodeled our bathroom and the small towel bar was a nice change to the traditional towel ring that is the usual trend. The 90 Degree line is a very contemporary look that really is relaxing.

Props to Moen for a cool looking design, but marks against them for poor execution. I ordered 3 of these - one to use as a magazine rack, and 2 for towels. 2 of the three arrived with severely pitted chrome, and the third has swirl marks as if the chrome had been applied over a brushed finish. First, I called Moen, to see if unblemished replacements could be send, but was told that customer service had no way to inspect articles before they were shipped to assure quality, but that they could replace them under warranty. After spending some time with chrome polish (about 30 minutes for all three) I was able to remove most of the marks from the chrome. The rest of the fit is also not great - the bars rattle, and I had to wrap the ends with tape prior to assembly to make them fit tight - in hindsight, a bit of clear silicon put inside the bar would achieve the same result. Also, the clearances between the parts was not consistent from bar to bar - two of them had pretty tight visual clearances, and the third had much larger visual gaps. On the plus side, the mounting brackets are heavier than the normal cheap stamped bracket that you get on a cheaper towel bar Also, the thin cross bar works good as a magazine rack - you can simple drop the magazine over it, with the bar in between the pages. In summary - it is a very clean design - Moen should keep in mind that clean designs require equally clean execution and quality, or they fall short. In the end they look nice, but for the quality, they should have cost half the price.

While I didn’t plan on spending so much money, I feel it was worth it. Sturdy and clean design. Exactly what I wanted.

Love the contemporary lines and purchased to match the faucets in all the bathrooms. Easy to install, great instructions for installing.

I was looking for a small chrome hand towel rack.This one fit the bill. Being Moen, I trusted the quality.

Great accessory. Sturdy and stylish

Matches perfectly with the other similar fixtures we installed. Very solid, love that it comes with the installation template so it's easy to ensure it is installed completely horizontally.

Unusual & classy. Simple design with eye appeal. A bit over priced. But I loved it & bought other parts of the collection. I would recommend & buy again.

I really like the quality! They look beautiful and are installed in a way that insures they will be stable and secure.
