I got these because I was tired of the shower curtain ending up torn from trying to get it over the 'bump' where the rods connect. Now I never have that problem and the curtain moves freely from either direction. The hooks are definitely secure...the only downside I see is that they will be a pain when removing the curtain for cleaning, however, I consider that well worth the effort.

I blamed myself when the first one broke. Being careful, I only broke two more.
Oh!, and the glide part sounded good.
Metal on metal in the early A.M. don't sound so pretty, or good. I'll keep looking too.

These only look good. They are made of somekind of cheap lead like material. When you try to open them up to put on the curtain tube they simply break! When I was putting them up three broke and I threw them all away. These are just plain cheap, useless hooks. Beware dont buy!

1 month in, and they've already started rusting. Spend a few extra dollars and get rings that will hold up to normal shower conditions. These are very cheap.

These rings are nothing fancy, but are several steps up from cheap plastic rings. They glide smoothly and could not do a better job of that than anything I've owned or seen.

The construction quality is moderate. There's nothing terribly bad about it, nor are they built like anything well beyond this product's price point. I would not recommend snapping these open and stretching them to get them around your shower rod. They are not designed for that. For an existing rod, take it down and slide these on when you first get them. It's a far better way to remove your old rings while you are at it. If you are installing a new rod, slide these on before mounting it. Open and close the rings only to put curtains on or take them off.

I'm using these with a high quality sturdy chrome rod that is well anchored. I have not tried them with a cheaper force fit type aluminum rod so I can't say whether these would help avoid problems in that scenario. But I can say that these don't look out of place on my shower rod and performance is top notch.

If you are expecting something that looks like the picture and works very well, that's exactly what you get. Any set of "rings" can be installed or removed most quickly by removing the rod, but if you want rings that can be snapped on or off one at a time, you need a snap open ring rather than a hook style that's technically not a ring. This set works as designed.

Very cheap shower rings. I have a curtain which is permanently in place and two of the twelve snapped in half when attempting to place around the standard diameter rod. I would possibly consider if I was able to slip on the rod and THEN hang the rod. Hope this saves frustration of someone.

These broke while as soon as you tried to fit them into a standard shower curtain rod. Had to go to Walmart to get the exact same from their Canopy line and worked out great. Not happy I wasted my money.

What can you really say about shower curtain rings? These items have been holding up my shower curtain for about a year now, and they are still working perfect, and have not fully rusted up as most rings do. I am very happy with this purchase.

Bought a year ago and still all work great. no rusting and curtain slides wonderfully. no problems and would buy again if i ever need to. highly recommend!

They do the job, and don't really stand out. I hardly notice them. Nice value for the money.
