How Our Score Is Calculated

Product Description

It is easy to install and no hardware is required
The length of the rod can be adjusted
The diameter of the hole is 7/16"

Questions & Answers

How long is it and how long does it compress down to?

To make it 32 inches longer by turning a rod to a usable length up to 32 inches, you need to transform it into 48 inches

What kind of metal is this? Aluminum? Steel?

The material aluminium

In the place where the end caps meet the wall, what is their diameter?

The width of an inch and a half.

How do I slide curtains onto these without worrying about them not fitting over the sides if one side comes off and goes back on?

It is not possible to separate the two parts since there is a tension spring inside that prevents separation. It is possible, however, to pry off the rubber tip from the curtain rod sleeve at one end if the sleeve is very narrow. Easily fitting the rods and tips into the sleeve of a 1 1/2" rod was not an issue.

The spray bottle can be used to hold cleaning solutions
4/5

Although this is not an official use of the product, I plan to use it as a rod to hold the cleaning bottles for my household. I've seen this tip online numerous The rod kept falling, no matter how much I tightened it. At first, it was a bit too much weight. The end result was that I over-spent The bondic I used is holding up great so far. I tightened it and quickly sealed the joining of the inner and outer pieces of the rod. I attempted to look at the packaging when I had problems to see what the max weight was, but the writing is in Spanish, and I don't see anything that looks like a weight on the ones I received. The pictures did an excellent job of explaining what went on in the package, since I could not read the specifications.

We don't cut corners, and we don't cut corners for cheap
5/5

A curtain rod like this one can't be all that bad, can it? After reading other reviews, it almost did not meet my expectations due to its flimsy nature and tissue paper-like holding strength. You may please. There is no truth in this statement. At work, there was an error caused by the user. In my job as a home dec seamstress, I use spring tension rods a lot. Here is how I You should make it at least half as long as the space where it's going to be installed. You can compress the rod in order to fit it into the space. Allow it to rest in place for a few moments. During use, the ends are held securely in place by a spring. Take it out and wind it out a bit more and repeat if it isn't tight enough. So now that you have your curtain, wrap a gift with the tissue paper and use the curtain to hide your mess.

The purchase of the seems to be the favored option for many others
4/5

For under my sink, I purchased a spring tension rod to hold all of my spray bottles (great space saving idea that I found online, and it looks like a lot of other people have Upon receiving it, I was extremely elated to finally organize my under sink cabinets, so I took out all of the spray bottles, only to find that the tension rod was completely bent, even though the shipping box it came in was in perfect shape. Surely it was already bent when it was shipped to me, since that supposes it was already bent when it was sent to to extrude it, but it was completely bent beyond repair, and even after I straightened it out as much as I could, I was still unable to adjust it. * Luckily, Amazon has excellent customer service and shipped me a replacement within a few hours. As part of my mission, I've been tasked with - It works perfectly for my plans to declutter my entire apartment and replace my tension rod. The first time I hung the bottles on the rod everything seemed fine. However, when I returned the following day the rod had fallen and everything on it was broken, but I realized that the bottle that was on the rod was very full and large. After I re-positioned the rod and put all of the spray bottles back into position, all except for that one very heavy one, the rod and the spray bottles came loose again over a week later. It's that and the addition of contact paper and organizing baskets that have actually transformed the former problem area into a much better-looking one.

I'm very disappointed in the quality of this product
3/5

The one that arrived was so tightly fitted that it would not expand at all. It had become stuck in the twisting motion After a while, we did manage to get it farther away, and the spring also came along with it, so it no longer tensions. I got one that is a complete piece of trash. If I were allowed to do so, I would, but we do not have a way to print return labels, and I am not willing to pay $1 to send back something less than $9. it is aluminum, I guess I'll take the feet off and take it to the recycle bin. Update

In order to make it function, my husband managed to remove the inner piece completely, twist the spring out by hand, then insert the spring back into the outer piece the other way. It should be possible to work without having to fully disassemble it There was clearly no care taken in the assembly of the original parts.

The clothes cannot be hung up by themselves
5/5

As I ordered the curtain rod, I was a little confused and thought that I was ordering a larger Rather than a heavy curtain rod, this is more of a lightweight version. It's not for taking a shower or anything of the sort. I wanted to use it to store the clothes of my newborn while he spends his first few months He wears a lot of clothes that cause this rod to droop. My next goal is to search for a shower curtain rod that is a little stronger at Target. The lightweight fabric that this particular rod works well with is - A curtain is a good metaphor for this.

Rod for the light - it's pretty good This is not a duty work assignment
4/5

As you can probably tell, the rod is a bit lighter than I was expecting, but at 7/16", I should have expected that it was quite thin. It seems like a good rod, it is pretty robust, but I am not sure that it will hold up the thermal blackout curtains. We will see if that works out. Despite being quite cheap, and in the market for a heavy-duty/thick tension rod, I compare prices and decide which to buy before making the purchase. Furthermore, I use tension rods since I'm about to paint the curtains and the window frames, etc. I don't want to have to patch any more holes from the I'm still looking for stronger rods, though. I have a good rod, but still in search of something heftier.

The screen is much more durable than it seems
5/5

The screens are great for screened-in porches, too. There are people in the I am amazed at how great these tension rods are! Due to their rather small size and light weight, I was a bit hesitant about using them as my screened-in porch Outside in the My privacy curtains have stayed put on all sides of my patio with these rods (10 windows total, most 36" wide), and I'm very happy with them! These rods do a fantastic job even when the curtains blow horizontally on very windy days. Over a month has gone by since we last experienced these kinds of conditions. There have been two Tornado Watch storms in the area, during which these rods have survived. I recommend this book highly!.
