I installed a soaking tub in our master bathroom. We love the tub but it is somewhat difficult to get in and out safely. I added a StrongTek Wooden Step Stool and the Vevor hot tub handrail for safety. The additions did the trick. I have read many comments about the danger of slipping and falling while using a soaking tub. Also I did not want ugly safety bars. The handrail goes with our bathroom decor. The only modification that I made was to drill three holes in the base so that I could bolt the handrail to the floor. Without the bolts it was a little unsteady.
