Guests are saying
The shower curtain rod offers a stylish curved design that enhances shower space, making it a popular choice for those seeking a modern look. While some guests found it easy to install and appreciated the extra room, others experienced difficulties with the tension mount, leading to frustration. The rod's dual installation options provide flexibility, but the tension feature may not be reliable for all users.

Terrible. Wont tighten, or stay up.
Won’t tighten to wall just slides down no matter how hard you twist it. Can’t screw into my wall so was relying on twist to tighten method. Followed all directions. Triple checked I was doing it right. It would stay for a few minutes and then slides down. Even had a man tighten it as well, thinking it was my lack of strength. Nope. Wouldn’t stay. Don’t buy unless you can use the permanent screw in method.

Bought 2, 1 worked fine other did not at all
Bought 2, 1 didn't work. The first one was a little harder than other tension rod installs I've done over time but seems sturdy, still working well, etc. I figured the second one would be super easy but it just didn't work and won't hold tension after double checks and comparisons and several attempts. Overall, take your chances I guess.

Every shower needs a curved rod
Easy to install, sturdy and secure tension system. I’m in a rental so I didn’t want to drill into the wall. Created so much more space in the shower.

Aluminum is too soft, poor quality
The aluminum in this product is of poor quality. There’s a single set screw on the rod that holds its length—I followed the instructions exactly, but then ended up needing to extend the rod by 1/16. I removed the set screw and when I tried to refasten it, the aluminum was too soft. The threads in the hole in the rod were stripped and the $40 rod was useless. Will attempt to return.

Safety and Labeling Issues to Be Aware Of
The product arrived with each part labeled to assist with assembly, which was helpful in theory. However, several labels were placed on surfaces that remain visible after installation, and unfortunately, the label material was poorly chosen. They tore off in tiny pieces and left behind stubborn adhesive residue (as shown on the right side of my photo). While trying to remove the glue from one of the endcaps, I sliced my thumb open on a sharp internal edge, likely left over from the manufacturing process where the slot for the rod was cut. This was a painful and unexpected hazard. Advice to future buyers: Handle the parts with care, especially around cut edges, and be prepared to deal with adhesive cleanup. Message to Target and its vendors: Please prioritize consumer safety in both design and manufacturing. If labeling parts is necessary, use high-quality removable labels that don’t leave residue or require excessive force to remove. And ensure all edges are properly finished to prevent injuries.

Won't stay up
Shower rod will not stay up and embarrassingly falls down on guests Tried several times to adjust and it just will not tighten up I’ll have to use a screw in type of shower rod and not rely on these pressure mounted rods a little bit of hot water from a shower makes it fall on the ground

Waste of Money
The tension rod is unable to support the weight of a shower curtain. Turns down immediately after hanging a curtain and line. Very effective if all you want is a rod, no curtain, in your shower.

Waste of time
Literally what the other people have said…The threads stripped on installation and wouldn’t hold the tension. Wish I would have read the reviews before wasting my time on this frustrating project.

Worst shower curtain ever
This shower curtain was impossible to put up. I had so many issues with it. Maybe if you don't have tile in your shower, it would be okay. It started scratching my new shower tile! I would give this 0 stars if I could. I've wasted my time and money trying to put it together. The other issue with it was also the stickers leaving a sticky residue. I even used my hair dryer on the sticker first, which usually helps all stickers automatically peel off. Nope!! That trick didn't work. I hate this product.

I thought it was easy to install. Feels sturdy. EXPENSIVE, but I really needed a shower curtain and Amazon was giving me 2-3 days out.

Trash - avoid
Do not buy this, the threads on the middle of the rod to lock in the shape stripped on the first try to screw it in. Had the whole thing screwed into the wall and got to the point of locking in the size before I did the tension and stripped. Had to take the whole thing down and return it and put my rusty shower rod back up.

Worst tension rod ever
Perhaps this would be better if it was hard mounted into the wall, but I don't think it would. Do NOT buy this. The tension mount is awful and does not work. It's $42 for pure garbage. Will definitely be returning this and keeping my rusty tension rod in place
