Step 3 says to adjust the screws but fails to say that if you adjust them at this step you could make the length permanent and thus make the rod completely unusable. I have never had an issue with directions in my life and have put together much more complicated items. These are by far the worst directions I have ever seen.

It was easy to install. If it really does not rust, then I will be ecstatic!

A very nice shower/bath curtain rod. Aluminum is great but a fairly soft metal. Would be five star if they used slightly thicker metal for tubes.

Exactly what I wanted. Still looks as good as the day we bought it. Been almost 2 years and look brand new.

This is great for the small showers. It opens up the space and of course makes the shower tub more spacious.

The inside of the housing is made of plastic. The plastic piece that holds the bar has snapped. I do not see a feasible way to jimmy rig this to make it work again. So, if you have an ornery kitten that likes to climb the curtain or little kids that might grab onto the curtain, I would steer away from this model.

New House, installed in my guest bath. My husband and I had to use the guest bath for the 1st 2 months. No sign of rusting, like the extra space. Not difficult to install in drywall, was careful as to where the seam was, so I don't have issue with the shower curtain catching on the seam.

I bought this because I wanted no rust and the curve. This is perfect. Looks great and very easy to install. As far as the rust, time will tell. Great product.
