Review on ๐ŸชŸ Decopolitan Drapery Bay Window Curtain Rod Set: Elegant Oil Rubbed Bronze Design by Jay Buford

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Fits some windows

I hope my 3 star rating doesn't stop anyone from buying this product because for some it will be perfect. Just not for me. My goal was to create a wall of curtains in my living room that can be left open and then closed to watch a movie. It didn't quite help. I would like to add that I would fall in love with them if they came to my windows. Also, I've seen some people complain about the little balls on the ends. I think small is better because the focus should not be on the rods, but on the curtains.1. I live in an old Victorian house so my windows are spaced further apart than new windows. I did not take into account this extra space. my fault I tried using old poles as extensions but they looked stupid. I'm surprised the company doesn't sell extension poles.2. These rods are really too fragile for my longer span needs. (Maybe that's why they don't offer extensions!) When I added the other poles, they bent. I haven't seen them with heavy curtains. PS the poles aren't really thin just not strong enough for the length I need.3. They come with 5 brackets as shown in the listing. That means you can see the staples when the curtains are open and you can't close the middle windows. I didn't think of that before I bought it! Update: 4. I finally found a way to get it working. I had a strong straight bar for another window. I replaced the two end pieces with two others. This rod is now long enough and strong enough to work with. Like I said, I love her now. However, I still give them 3 stars because they required purchasing a different rod for them to work.
