Review on Stainless Steel Tension Shower Curtain Rod - No Drilling, Rust-Proof Non-Slip Adjustable Closet Rod For Bathroom Kitchen Wardrobe Doorway Windows, 41-74 Inches by Eric Alcantara

This is the second shower curtain rod that I have purchased. The first had a smaller pressure circumference and, after it failed and crashed down several times, I saw that the inner tension spring was plastic. This one sounds as though the tension spring is metal (but I cannot be absolutely sure without looking). When I first put it up, I had to shimmey it up the wall with some force to create a level rod. Over time (a number of days) it started to imperceptibly move down the wall (about 1/16th of an inch per day; I marked the tile with dry erase marker). i hired a handyman to install closet rod brackets, but as he was much stronger than I am, he was able to insert the rod without brackets and without the shimmey action I had used. I have marked its place to observe any slippage, and I am happy to say that there has been no slippage now for over a week, and it looks like it will hold. I will update if there is a change. My recommendation: find a really strong person to install this, and you will likely be pleased.
