Let me tell you about this little brass lifesaver that made my bathroom renovation SO much easier. At first glance, it's just a simple bracket, but oh boy does it deliver where it counts.
The 15cm center spacing is PERFECT for standard exposed shower systems - no awkward drilling adjustments needed. I installed this with my thermostatic mixer bar in under 20 minutes, and here's the kicker: it hasn't budged one millimeter in 6 months of daily showers.
What I love most? The dual connection options saved me when I realized my plumbing wasn't exactly standard. Being able to choose between IPS threads or sweat connections meant zero return trips to Home Depot (we've all been there).
The solid brass construction feels premium - none of that flimsy pot metal nonsense. Even with my occasionally... enthusiastic... shower handle adjustments, this bracket takes the abuse like a champ.
Only minor gripe? The finish isn't super decorative since it's meant to be concealed, but come on - you're literally hiding it behind your shower hardware. For under $20, this is one of those 'why isn't everyone using this?' products that just works exactly as promised.
