I saw this item on Amazon & thought how great would this be if it really would stay on the mirror or bathroom wall?  Anyone have one of these?

    No, but I’m likely to, it looks great with no screws required.

    I have just about given up believing any household suction cup device would stay mounted.  I have tried more than a couple and none of them seem to hold for more than a short time--some fall off almost instantly--even when the surfaces are smooth, flat, absolutely non-porous, and scrupulously cleaned.  The only suction cup devices I have ever found that hold are the Fat Gecko devices by Belkin.
    I guess the only way to know if the gadget you reference will hold is to try it.  I've got a whole collection of good-in-theory-but useless-in-practice things.

    First, we don’t have this.  
    At first glance, I think it has a lot of functions.  But my concern is the suction cup method.  I’ve never had anything held up this way, stay on a long time.

    Bathroom wall, virtually no chance without adhesive or screws. It’s not smooth enough. Mirror...maybe. But I too have had extremely bad luck with suction cups, and to me, it’s not worth the risk of it falling down and cracking the shower pan on impact.

    We’ve used a suction grab bar while traveling and staying in hotels. While certainly for balance, we’ve never had one fail. Knock wood.

    I gave up on suction cup devices in the bathroom. They did have the peculiar trait of falling off the wall only during the middle of the night, scaring the *#&#%%@ out of us.

    Thanks everyone for your opinions-- I don't want to chance it falling off & breaking anything either

    I hate those suction cup things. I believe a spawn of Satan invented them.  I found these SNAD things on OrganizedObie.com which have a 3M adhesive on the back and you can use anything with a snap on it.  They have bathroom storage pocket thingies that don't mold.  their called Get Wet Organizers or something

    Bought a several small clear plastic shower caddies with large suction cups at the Dollar Tree and attached it to the mirror and one inside the wooden cabinet door.  Not elegant but I've had them up for over a year and they haven't come off yet.

    Suction cup hooks work on the mirror, and cafe rods across the back is great for towels! I never hang anything too heavy though.
