Kingston Brass CC313 D-Type Shower Curtain Rod with Ceiling Support from the Vintage Collection,

Kingston Brass CC3132 62-Inch Large Size by 27-5/8-Inch D-Type Shower Rod, Polished BrassPurchased for a 1920s stand-alone pedestal bathtub curved rod section is sturdy, but straight bar is in two parts w/ a 6" interior piece to connect them result is a flimsy dip in the straight section of the rod which we had to back w/ a piece of plywood screwed to the wall to hold a curved pipe clamp supporting the join in the rod....not aesthetically pleasing (:-(

Overall the shower rod is attractive and compliments the 1925 Clawfoot tub that I recently installed in our remodled bathroom. I considered installing this shower rod as is, however, I quickly found that, as with previous reviews, the rod is a bit flimsy and had to be re-enforced. I re-fabricated the D rod and made it four inches wider than advertised. I also re-enforced the joints with pop-rivets for added strength, otherwise the rod bends way too easily at the joints.

Individual pieces connect with an aluminum inner sleeve that results in sagging joints. Holes are drilled in wrong location to be assembled like the picture in the description and the picture in the assembly instructions, (which had no words). Worst piece of doodoo that I have come across in a long time. Do not be tempted by the lowest price as I was. I did get mine to work after strengthening it with epoxy at the aluminum joints and adding an additional ceiling hanger. The tubes themselves are nice strong chrome-plated brass and sufficient to the task but the joints and end pieces are not good. Lack of quality control at factory results in mis-matched pieces and holes not drilled in correct places. I should have just returned it.
