Will this mount securely onto ceramic (shiny) tile?

Yes, that is exactly what I have - imported from Italy. No damage what-so-ever to the ceramic tile.

Ideally elevease needs a SMOOTH surface to ensure secure fixing to your tiles and as such we would not recommend it if the surface is too uneven. Regards Elevease

I would think the Scotch Permanent Mounting Tape would work well for this purpose. I understand that with ceramic tile, you don't want to go through the hassle of drilling holes and sinking masonry screws. The tape will stick extremely well to the ceramic tile, and it should do OK with the plastic (or whatever) that your paper towel holder is made of. But be sure everything is squeaky clean ... use alcohol or a degreasing cleaner to remove any traces of oil or other substances (even if it seems the surfaces are clean). Since you'll be tugging on the paper towels, I'd advise putting as long a strip of tape as your holder will accommodate. This will give you extra holding power. Also, with any double-sided tape, I've found that it's best to (1) press the tape firmly in place for 60 seconds or so, and (2) let the tape "cure" for awhile before you put stress on it. The bond seems to grow stronger with time. Thus, this waiting period gives it a chance to achieve maximum adhesion before any demands are made on it.

Yes the handrail is suitable for securing to a tiled surface.I have installed mine in my shower area which is tileddirectly onto the wall. A proper tile drill and appropriateRawlplugs or Rawlbolts (which I used) are required

what kind of tile ? It will possibly stick on ceramic type tiles if applied correctly but smoothing the joints together over a non uniform surface could present a challenge

The plumber is correct. It won't mount correctly because of the seams in the tile and you need a finished edge on the tile.

Most likely... it's very sturdy & holds my additional ceramic dishes just fine!

It has to be mounted to a wiring box so the ceiling tile (or whatever the ceiing is) would have to be strong enough to hold both the box and the light fixture. The fixture isn't very heavy, but I think the success or failure would rest on the strength of the ceiling material.

you did not say that you tried mounting it diagonally. I had the same problem with my subway tile but it never did work. I suggested this because you did not mention the length of grasp on the stronghold. Give it a try.

Yes. My shower curtain is quite secure affixed to painted walls on either side of tiles.

If the tile has a smooth glass-like surface, yes. It will not work on textured tile.

B. Felix... it is straightforward, but requires the tools and techniques. Here is the expert advice I used to attach my magnetic bamboo knife strip through my tile. Enjoy! http://homeguides.sfgate.com/put screws-ceramic-tile-23660.html

I have it mounted to a tile wall. It required Lok-tite (sp?) to secure it, but it stays in place & looks good.

Sure- although keep in mind it is not a thick dimension tile. It has a very low profile. Its easy to install and DYI friendly. A beautiful and elegant choice.

I don't know about mounting it on tile. Probably can be done but tricky drilling through the tile without cracking it. All parts on my mirror are brushed nickel. I love it - only wish it was magical and took away some of the wrinkles!

Can this be mounted to a tile/granite wall? Without screws? What would I use?
