Carnation Home Fashions Steel Shower Curtain Tension Rod

I'm sorry to write a bad review since all the others were really good, but this didn't work for me.

I bought this for my kids bathroom but it fell so many times, so I decided to toss it and purchase the more expensive one I had in my other bathroom since it was really sturdy.

Everytime I would give my son a bath, it would fall just by me moving the curtain to the side.I didn't pull on it or tug it.And I've installed other shower rods to know how much to tighten it.But no matter what, it just wouldn't stay up.Maybe mine was a defected one??

This is the one I ended up purchasing:

Aquatico Monte Carlo Shower Curtain Tension Rod, Satin

Positioned this above the middle of the bathtub makes a perfect spot to hang a beach towel and dripping bathing suit.The tension rod fits tightly against the walls and is sturdy enough to support an oversize beach towel plus wet clothes and bathing suit.

Just make sure you tighten when you extend, or it will come tumbling down.I love the black.I paired it with a white cloth textured shower curtain and some black and wood shower rings.Looks awesome.

If you want a really nice shower curtain, this is probably isn't what you want.However, it was perfect for me.I'm in the Air Force and recently moved out of the dorms in Germany. In my condo's bathroom, there is a separate tub and shower, but the shower is a little cell with barely enough room to use, and the temperature adjustment is so picky my choices are either to turn up my heating so high that a cold shower is not objectionable, or burn while I'm showering.

The tub is set up like most American showers in that it has a shower head and a faucet to fill the tub, but no shower curtain rod!My landlord requested that I not put nails anywhere besides the walls, and the entire bathroom is lined with tile, so a tension rod was my only choice.This one was highly affordable, even for someone that's still in the process of buying cooking stuff and a couch and bed, and stays up fine.

If you're having issues keeping it up, I suggest twisting it out 'til you can get it between the walls, then keep twisting until it will not twist any more.This will put enough tension in it that you can put a reasonable amount of weight on it without it budging.

I'm getting the idea that some of these are defective, because most of the reviews are positive -not mine, however. I spun it out until it was just touching the walls on either side. I kept spinning to tighten. When I'd get it tight enough to stay in place, it would UN-tighten itself the minute I let go, and then crash down. I tried it on the tile, and on the drywall, and it didn't make any difference. Touch the wall tighten a little more let go it visibly un-tightened and fell. Every single time.
