Zenna Home Tension Curtain Rod, No Drill Adjustable Window Curtain Rod with Decorative Round Finials, Easy Install Telescoping Rod, 48 - 84 Inches, Brushed Nickel

These rods hold up lightweight curtains. It took a few tries to get the rod to stay in my old wooden framed windows. You really have to put tension when applying it and it fell a few times when first putting it up. After about 15 minutes of trying i finally got it to stay and I’ve had this rod for about a month now and it still is holding my curtains up. My only concern was that my other window (I installed two of these rods on two separate windows) is on a corner of the room so the round ball at the end was apparently too much in the way for me to apply the rod correctly to line up corner piece with the window. However I just put tension on the ball and the other corner piece and it worked so just make sure you measure your area between the wal and the window so you don’t have that issue! I love these rods and they are very functional and look nice.

These are a wicked good solution for luxury apartments that will bill you for any mark or hole. We can’t leave damage on the walls, but these have padding to protect the surface and are truly tension pole mechanics.I love that they’re out from the wall and my curtains can be opened and closed easily when on grommets. I put one curtain on upside down and the pocket fabric is too tight to allow movement but the one that is correct moves well enough.I have a cat who loves the window and despite being a little toot and grabbing the curtains on occasion, they’ve stay strong.You need two people to install them, and step stools. Don’t try to skimp and one person with no assist it. It’s going to not be sturdy and then it will fee like a sh***y product. It’s not. You just didn’t do it right.

I purchased many of this curtain rod (both oil rub bronze and brushed nickel colors) and all of them have been working fine until now. It has been a month and a half so far. They stay tight to the window frames and haven't fallen (and I do hope they won't fall ever).It's easy to install just as shown in the video and the package also has installation directions. Just do NOT tighten the rod too much (it's recommended to do 5 turns to tighten the rod). On one rod, I tightened it too much and heard the crack sound, which I think something broke inside the rod; however, the rod is still holding up with curtains hanging on it so I just left them like that.There's some little problem with this, they can take curtains up to 20 lbs. BUT the longer the rod you extend and the heavier the curtains are, the lower the middle part will be dragged down (not parallel to the frame all the way from one end to another). I put 2 medium-to-heavyweight curtains and 2 very lightweight curtains on to one rod that is extended to 84" and notice the middle part has been pulled down a bit (just a little bit so it doesn't look bad). But the curtains and the rods have been holding up fine.Also, one of the rods I bought had loose end so I just couldn't fix and tighten the rod. I fixed this by using the plier to tighten and fix the length of the rod before I put it up on the window frame. No problem after that.For the price, compared with many other brands, I think this is affordable, works fine and also looks good. Plus, no holes in your window frame (I have aluminum window frames so I prefer not to drill any holes in them.

Love these! No tools, no fuss, so easy to install.

Don’t waste your time with this one. It doesn’t achieve its only job of staying up, even without a curtain. If they made it a tension that that might work, but it’s not. And even if it did stay up, it looks like crap, cheap plastic finials with cheap looking paint that will probably arrive scratched like mine.**Edit: Since Amazon told me to keep it rather than return, I decided what the heck, may as well give it another go. After much effort, I DID get it to stay up. And it has stayed up fine for the past few months with just a light shear curtain! It isn't the best looking, but in my case it was really the best option. The bathroom wall is completely tiled and I wasn't about to drill through the beautiful tiles to hang a curtain rod. And all the stick-on rod options looked terrible. So I guess I am happy enough with my purchase.

The finial projection was too long for our corner and tan into the adjacent wall so we had to return it. I would recommend the Amazon marketing description include the length of bracing edge to finial tip

Very pleased with this, bought it to put up blackout curtains in an apartment. I’m now moving out two years later and it has stayed up in place the entire time with no damage to the walls.

These things are great! So far, they are holding. I'm glad there is a screw hole just in case, but so far so good. I would imagine if you have extremely heavy curtains, these may need some additional support.
