Sharon... I had this happen once, and I washed the suction cup with soap and warm water, cleaned the area that I was sticking it to with shower cleaner (I use it on a shower wall)... after that it stuck firmly again. Hope this helps.

Use a short handle brush, and Wash Tile & Cups with comet or Ajax. Rinse well..

I haven't had any problem. If there's not an obvious physical issue, maybe you could try washing the suction cups and the shower tiles with vinegar to remove any oily substance?

What works for me on tiled walls is to clean both the surface you're sticking it to AND the suction cups with isopropyl alcohol on a clean cloth. Dry the surface you're sticking it to thoroughly. Dappen only the suction cups, then press the bar onto the surface you cleaned. Hold and press as firmly as possible near where the suction cups are located for a solid 30 seconds. For best results, wait a few hours to let it "cure" before using as intended.

Clean both the suction cups and the area where you are going to attach it, then put a few drops of a soapy solution on the cups before you lock them down. They will stick for days and days.

Put a permanent bolted to the wall one close to where you exit. I put one in my toilet area wall to help. I have arthritis in my arms and hands and it helps to get up

warm the barrel in a hot bath for a minute or two then tap it on a hard surface to dislodge it. That should work.

when I remove mine & put back up I have this problem. I use Elmers stick glue & it works great & washes off.

over time, mine has started to slip down too, so i'm not sure what's going on if yours is new. i find i have to fiddle with it, by pulling up on it to create some tension and then twisting it slightly until it sticks. it's pretty finicky now...not sure why.

Mine has never fallen off, perhaps you have a defect, last resort try a small piece of color matched tape.

Mine sticks if I don't get it on just right, too. When that happens, I use a gripper pad (also available on Amazon in a 4-pack for about $6)

Good afternoon Herbert, I have one of those in the bathroom. It would be a lot better if you adjust it on the tile as you enter the tub because I have no problem for it to stay on the wall, make sure that the adjustment is tight and you won't have any problem with it.

I had the same problem. Bigger issues were that the base doesn't roll all that easily.. Almost better off bolting a bench to the tub.. Not great for the tub.. But way safer..

You may need to run some water first. Suction cups won't work very well on a dry tub.

I bought one and then had it replaced. The replacement was also defective and I returned it. I am guessing that you do not have the gripper that is on the bottom of the seat. If you lift it up you will see a white rubber piece on both side of the seat, or you will see where one or both is missing. If one or both are missing, then the seat will be unstable. In my case, I just gave up trying. Kohler should be ashamed. They charge top dollar and give you junk (sorry for the rant).

I have had no issues with the grip. I would remove it, clean the contacts on the bottom, and try again.

have to soak in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes. Then I use tweezers to scrape and pull the grip out.

Have to get grip glue or another method for it to stick there's about a 2cm gap when I put them on soft grips tho.

Mine came off easily and the residue came off with warm soapy water. If its that sticky on yours you can always try a drop of goo gone that you can pick up from home depot or Lowe's. I only had an issue with one pan but after a few scrubs with dish soap it came off completely.

I don't know. Our tub had the little no-slip flowers in it, but they were coming off. The fish went on quite easily (clean the tub first) and haven't come unstuck at all. But it's just a standard porcelain finish, so I don't know. Sorry.

My mat has about 200 suction cups. It sticks so well that I haven't had it slip at all. I cannot imagine why it would not stick to someone's tub. Possibly the tub needs scouring with a good product like Ajax with bleach.

I had that problem time to time after the first few years. An easy solution is, while it's on and seems to be stuck, pick it up straight out of the water and shake it side to side and front to back for about 15 seconds and place it back in the water. Hope this helps!
