Simple Houseware Adjustable Closet Hanging Rod, Chrome

Just bought and assembled. So far, so good. Product works as it should and appears to be of good quality. Packaged very well, no damages from shipping. Includes 1 extra bracket clip set which is nice. Printed instructions are intelligible. Very easy to assemble and install. If you own any adjustable wire shelving units, this is put together the exact same way. Be sure to install the rod bracket clips at the same height on the vertical rods with the arrows pointed in the correct position. Vertical rods have grooved indicators that the clips *must* snap into. I modified the recommended install instructions to be sure the vertical rod hanger hooks were fully screwed in and aligned to the correct position to hang securely from the existing closet rod. I hung each vertical in my closet, slid the horizontal clothes rod up from underneath, then installed the rod bracket clips where I wanted and pushed the horizontal clothes rod down. The width is easy to adjust in place. (The instructions tell you to do all of this on a flat surface.) The horizontal clothes rod is very easy to adjust, but for added assurances I did not expand it to maximum width. The unit appears to be a very sturdy, but I don't want to push my luck. I wish the vertical rods were about two to three inches longer for my garments needs, but for most people this will work just fine. These vertical rods are also thin enough to not lose valueable hanging space on the already existing closet rod, which is a good thing. I would also prefer the unit's hanger hooks to be deeper, with more curve on the return downwards, to make the unit very difficult to swing and accidentally fall off the existing rod. On my old unadjustable metal and wood dowel rod extension, you would have to physically lift the entire rod unit upwards by about two inches -and then up and over- the existing rod to remove it. This unit hanger hooks are shaped more like clothes hangers. Do I think it's going to be a problem for me and most people? No... But if you have small children who might be tempted to use this product as a swing or as monkey bars, it might be possible to accidentally knock this off the existing closet rod with A LOT of effort. These products help to solve my "rental home's absolute bare minimum (read: brutalist) cheap closet that wastes so much valueable space" problems AND I can take them with me when I move. These are inexpensive, attractive options for renters to maximize their space with a quality but removable option- and they're nice enough I would be very pleased to keep using them in other accomodations in the future. I also bought 1 extra unit to possibly travel with in the future, because the packaging is quite small and would fit in luggage easily and assembles without any tools. If you're going anywhere for an extended stay, this might help make your stay more organized in a guest room or Air BnB closet, etc.

Easy to assemble, my 5 year old had fun helping me. Took less then 5 minutes and it adjusts easily. My kids room has a drawer in the middle of the closet so I lost hanging space. This helped bring that space back. Its easy to adjust to fit your needs for the closet space. Quality is nice and it doesn't move easily.

This Simple Houseware Adjustable Closet Hanging Rod is a nice little upgrade if you’re trying to make more room in your closet without doing a full remodel. Installation was simple — just twist to adjust the length and pop it in place, no tools or hardware needed. The chrome finish looks clean and holds up well, even with daily use.

Easy to set up. Works well.

Best solution for small dorms closets. Double the hanging space with ease.

Great product. 2nd one I've purchased.

We didn't want to change the existing closet in our kids room only to redo it again every few years as they get taller. This was an easy solution to make everyday day clothes reachable for younger kids and then move the bar up as the years go.

Sturdy and works great!
