My tub wall is not the same width all the way across. Will this affect the ability of the grip to fasten firmly?

No, It will work on different widths. You open the unit up to fit the width needed and clamp it down.

Not much flexibility. If you don't get a good fit, one point wont be as strong and then it is not a sturdy fit. I noticed this with my wall. I have a section that must be off a bit and the top two points dont reach the wall, even though the bottom points do. It wont shut in that area.

The handle can be removed anytime. You just reach under and turn the retaining nut. The width is adjustable and should extend out to 29". Mine is at the end of the tub where the tub narrows. We set the inside bracket to fit and then tighten it down. It's quite secure. We are very happy with the product. It adjusts to fit anywhere in the tub.

The uneveness of your wall surface should be a problem. I don't think any bracket could solve this problem.

I'm not sure, but would have to say no, because, if the top of the tub wall isn't flat and flush with the in and outside wall of the tub the clamps won't have anything to clamp onto securely and the bracket won't rest securely on the rounded surface. I hope this makes sense to you.

it grips over the side of the tub. if you have a curved top and not a solid wall, i do not think this will work because you have to tighten it against the body of the tub and if the top is curved over and the tub inset, it won't work.

The grip is 16 inches long. I have mine on a flat surface, but it should work fine on 4" tiles unless your grouting between the tiles is really thick. I would recommend trying it. I have been very pleased with the two I have in my shower!

Nope, because the top edges are not flush flat so you there will be an ugly gap of grounding between the tiles to the tub. You should look for tubs that is for under mount purpose instead.

I say yes, if you leave the shower door open because it won't close unless you remove grip. It is fabulous, so sturdy and I highly recommend this model. It should cover the width of your tub rim...just check instructions and measure tub rim.

My handle is on part of the tub that is 4". We had put it on the 5" part initially, but there was a slight slant to that part of the tub so we moved it to the thinner part. This is a good handle and very secure. I think it should fit the 5.5".

If your mounting on a non-level or slanted surface the screw takes up the slack caused by the non plumb surface or irregularities in the mounting area. Hope this helps.

I actually think it will. Our tub is shorter than that, but we did not have it fully extended when we used it. We loved the product, as did our OT and PT. Good luck.

Sure. Just don't expect it to work well. You'll be better off with an old-fashioned stopper sized for your tub.

Clamps work less well with circular surfaces, so that may be the problem. I can't imagine that you would have a problem, but I understand your reluctance, given the return problem. I would say, just from looking at the clamp, that anything around three inches thick, and flat, not rounded, would be safe for this product, and it really does create a very firm hold. I have certainly had no problem.

I would think so. The clamp part sits fairly low to the tub. The rail probably only comes up about an inch I would assume. Hope that helps.

As long as there was a lip around the top of the tub. You can see the "handles" on either side? They slide in and out as required for width of tub. I estimate you would need a good 2 inch lip to hold it securely.

Yes, it ought to work just fine. It fastens to the inside wall in two places, and to the ceiling in one place. It should not cause any interference with the wall faucet/shower. I was able to cut it to size (along the straight side) to fit my small clawfoot perfectly. You may have to take some precise measurements and cut it to fit the area of your tub, but it should work just fine.
