Review on ๐Ÿ”’ Umbra Cappa Curtain Rod Set: Stylish Brass Design with Finials, Brackets & Hardware, Adjustable 36-66 Inches by Badazz Webb

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good cornice but terrible hardware

Pros: The rod hangs well on the wall. The simple design looks great on the large window of my normal family room. It's also quite strong as I have 4 108" long curtains hanging from this rod while it spans 176". Cons: Accessories - scrap! If you're installing this on drywall and can't get the screws into the studs in the wall, just do yourself a favor and ditch the included wall anchors, buy a lever anchor that matches the decorative screw and use that. I tried using the supplied anchor and they went in smoothly, but all 4 anchors popped out of the wall and broke in two when I tried to drive the screw in. The first 2 times with a screwdriver, the second 2 times with a screwdriver. And they leave pretty big holes in the wall. Luckily the hole was just the right size to insert the lever anchor I bought and no patching or painting was required. The ease of installation was a huge hit as it took me 2 trips to the hardware store and a total of 3 hours of installation, research and shopping time to hang this thing on the wall. Now that it's on top it looks great and is very durable. No, thanks to the included hardware.

Pros
  • Quality fitting
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
