4.0 out of 5 stars Nice product, March 14, 2009

This review is from: 5 ft. Curved Shower Rod - Polished Stainless Steel

Fits shower openings from 57 3/8 " to 60 3/4". The supplied mounting hardware is good for drywall and wallboard but will not work with tile or fiberglass. You can get appropriate mounting hardware for tile or fiberglass at a hardware store. The directions were straight forward, but a bit chatty for my taste. Remember to close the bathtub drain in case you drop one of the small set screws.

My only complaint is that the wall mounts should be taller. The curved bar plus curtains puts a substantial amount of torque on the vertical wall mounts and the screws in the wall are not far enough apart to hold the torque. The wall mounts will thus rotate slightly with standard wall anchors and lower the rod down a bit. You need to consider this with height placement so your curtains don't drag on the floor. If you are luck enough to mount into a wall stud then this should not be a problem.

This review is from: 5 ft. Curved Shower Rod - Polished Stainless Steel

I hate shower doors and use a shower curtain so I can just throw it in the washing machine once a month. The only problem was the space was a little tight and sometimes the curtain touches and sticks to you. This curtain rod eliminated that! It almost seems to have doubled the elbow room, and I still kept the same shower curtain. I had to cut about four inches off to make it fit, but it works fantastic.

This review is from: 5 ft. Curved Shower Rod - Polished Stainless Steel

This rod is fabulous it's amazing what the little crescent shaped area provides, in terms of additional space. It also creates an optical presence that you're actually in a larger shower. I bought this at bed bath and beyond for 39.99 so anything cheaper is a great price. I have the same hangers as the picture that roll because I wasn't sure if it had an extension piece where the hangers would get stuck, but it's all one piece so any hanger would probably work better than a traditional extension rod.

If you place the mounts about 3" in from your original location you'll definitely notice how the inside curtain keeps the water in and air out.

Must have...
