Inexpensive and they look great
I was impressed with the quality and the appearance. The finish rivals any of the high end Chandeliers when i was in that line of work. As usual though,design limitations are the breakfast crossword puzzles that engineers enjoy but never really finish. The tippy top mounting screw holes are within an 1/4" of the knee portion of the brackets. This is not a major factor if you are using an appropriate screw driver say; A #1 Phillips Head Screw Driver with a 4" shank. They send lots of screws and plastic molly anchors so when you ruin a screw,you do not have to rob the odds and end drawers. Instead you get to add more screws to that prized collection. The rods are more than study enough to carry the 36" span that i needed and the top quality Black Out curtains are indeed well hung. For price,quality and gorgeous looks especially on the finial ends,these are the ones to get. Operative word here is;Value.

This is a nice looking curtain rod that does the job for a good price. I ordered two of them, but I only put on one grommeted drapery panel per rod/window because that is the look I wanted. I remember thinking when I put the first panel on that it was good I wasn't putting on two panels per rod because my lined panels are heavy and I had extended the rod (which is designed to fit 28"- 48") out to 45". I think the weight of two panels would have required a center support which is not included in the hardware package. So, think about the length of the rod and the weight of your panels and order a center support if you think it might be necessary. With that caveat, I'd say this rod is worth the money.

Great cheap rod with simple installation
I've installed a lot of curtain rods, Venetian blinds, Roman shades, and other window treatments. This curtain rod is hands-down the easiest one to install I've come across. Just two screws on each side, and they provide mollies for installing directly into drywall. The two brackets have screws for holding the rod tight in place. Other reviewers have said they won't hold up a heavy curtain, but as long as you install the curtain rod properly on a wall that can hold the weight, these curtain rods can hold the heaviest of curtains.You only get four screws and four mollies, and the instructions are four tiny pictures printed on the cardboard hang-tag. You could probably install this curtain rod without the use of any instructions, but it would have been nice for them to include one or two extra screws and mollies. They are a pretty standard size so you could replace them, but this seems like an oversight to me.

Misleading color - Really disappointing (French Pewter)
I ordered the French Pewter and when it arrived today, my husband and I first thought I must have been sent Bronze instead. The images for French Pewter are extremely misleading. They make it look like a warm toned silver and what I received was a murky bronze color. I added pics, but please note it actually looks even darker in person than my pics show. I’m really wary now of using the same company to get a different one.Hopefully this warning will help someone else avoid the disappointment of spending forever and a day to find the perfect color rod for their decor only to end up with something as dark and dull as their bronze gutters. I hate wasting money but not sure it’s worth the trouble to make my husband haul a giant box out to return.

Decent curtain rod
This is the first curtain rod I have ever installed due to having to move every couple years. I have always used command hooks to hang rods. I decided to purchase this curtain rod to go with new curtains that I had purchased. Once I figured out the placement of the brackets and made a pattern to use above my windows, the installation went quickly. I only had an issue with one of the end pieces. It wasn't screwed in like the other side, and I was never able to get it to completely look like the other side. It's not that noticeable once the curtains are put on the rod.

Decent for price
This is a pleasant rod - nothing too obnoxious from a rod perspective. Some of the decorative rods on the market create so much confusion and detract from the curtain. I like this for its simplicity, but still with a touch of style. My one complaint is the screws that come with mounting hardware. They are low-end screws and will absolutely not work with a heavier hardwood. I'm renovating a 125+ year old Victorian and almost gave up on installing until someone directed me to a better screw - shorter, more of a tech screw. Otherwise, I would have rated 4 starts.Of note, there is a significant and obvious gold marking to the finial which I like, but the photos doesn't really show. Study the photo and you will see gold rimming at various points of finial. Also, the finial is more square - it has some flat sides to it.

Flimsy, good for sheers but nothing heavier
Pretty easy to install, although this rod is very flimsy. I would not recommend it for anything heavier than sheers. That’s what it was being used for, I bought it as part of a gift for a friend who wanted curtains hung up in her living room. I hung it up the other day, and she likes the way it looks. But with anything heavier, I absolutely would not trust it at all.

Sencilo pero cumple.
Pensé que sería de un tono bronce, pero el tubo es negro y los aditamentos que van a los extremos de continero solo tienen ligeros detalles en bronce, sin embargo esta bastante bien, lo uso para una ventana aproximadamente de un metro de ancho y no se dobla, aunque no es un tubo muy solido en su construcción.Para el precio y la calidad del producto, cumple con mis expectativas, solo hace falta salir a una tienda departamental o una especializada en artículos del hogar y te das cuenta que ofrecen opciones parecidas en cuanto a calidad solo que a un precio mas elevado, que si llegar a ser tanto, es un punto a tomar en cuenta.

Has square endings
I'm impressed!This item is of great quality, very light but quite rigid too! I extended it to almost full width (I extended to 75 inches) and didn't even need the middle support. My heavy blackening curtain holds well on it.Note that the pictures don't show properly the appearance, I thought the endings were round, but they are square (which is really not an issue)I've put a picture of the ending so you know what to expect better.Both rods slide well and can be secured with the tiny screw to ensure you don't just pop them out.

Overall, good value.
Love that the brackets were included. I needed to use all 3, as the rod was used at almost full extension with a heavy curtain, which tends to make the center sag, otherwise. Decent quality and design, and great value compared to many units I've seen at 2-3 times the price.

Hmmm
I ordered 2 sets on the same day. One arrived one week and 7 days later the other one arrived. I found that strange. The end knob won't fit in and has like a screw on it. Not sure how that would work, so I have put it on. Not impressed. But it's a nice look to it.
