Customer Reviews

They say stainless steel like it is a color, not a material
If this is made of stainless steel, then it is the first stainless steel thing I have owned that rusted in only a few months. And I don't mean a barely noticable rust spot, almost the entire length of the rod on the shower side is rusted on the bottom.

When it arrived, I read the entire box and all of the paperwork that came with it, everything called it "brushed finish" not stainless steel. So, the Amazon listing may just be wrong, but the item itself never seems to claim to be stainless.

The ends have to be held in place on the walls while the rods are extended out, making installation a 2 person job. The whole thing is quite heavy - not necessarily a bad thing, but dropping it on your tub would cause you to have a bad day.

Unlike most tension rods, it doesnot seem to 'un-tension.' The instructions actually say that if you over-extend the rod, you have to pull it out completely and put it back in, because you can't move it backwards. I think I will be using a pipe cutter to remove it when I find one that is actually stainless steel.

I also does not come with those little pieces of round plastic that go towards the middle of the rod, where the 2 halves of the rod meet. That leaves the sharp end of the larger rod for you to cut your hand on as you open/close the curtain.

No Holes, No Drills, Extend It Out
Now, here's a nifty product if you don't want to drill holes in your walls. The DUO rod and rack is easy to put together; you just put the poles in the two holders. The holders have rubber on the end to keep it from slipping; it works fairly well if you and balance the weight. The directions say it's a two-man job to set it up, but I had little problems doing it myslef. If you're working with a large shower it would be easier with two people. It's also great to stick up between two close-spaced walls.

duo shower curtain rod
I purchased this shower rod so that I could save space in a small bathroom. I wanted to have wall space without hanging towel bars. This rod did the trick. It is not only functional, but it is beautiful, too. It comes in several finishes, I chose the brushed nickel to match my faucets. It hangs without screws and is solid to the wall so there is no slipping or falling like some of the less expensive shower rods. I highly recommend this. You can check it out and order it here. [...]
