    It is easy enough to put up and worked fine for a month or two, but then it stopped holding tension and began falling repeatedly. The curtain we used is a lite liner only, so the weight was minimal

    I need to hang some curtains on a temporary basis in my living room and kitchen - regular windown curtain rods are too much trouble and not steady, unless you drill holes in the wall which I don't want to do - this shower curtain rod has great tension and stays firmly on the wall - does not sag in the middle - I only wish they can come up with a skinner version so I can use them all over my house

    Blessed - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
    What i liked is that we finally got it to work, meaning able to stretch it, release it, so we could get it opened to hang the curtain. It was quite difficult and the directions weren’t too helpful. Read reviews after bringing it home.. so far it has not fallen down like reviewers mentioned. It’s been a week or so, and I’m grateful! Bottom line: it’s doing its job.

    Not sure why others are struggling, mine was fine right out of the package - no need to remove or adjust anything. Pulled it to the right size, locked the bar in place with a little twist then unscrewed the one end cap a bit to firm it up. Looks great!
