  • High quality, excellent design -- looks great and functionally really great.
Color: Black Size: 48" to 88" Style: Single Rod
This is a very high quality curtain rod with excellent design. Super easy to use and install. The curtain rod part screws into the bracket, meaning if you want to remove the curtains, you just unscrew the rod on one end, collapse it a little, and slide the curtains off. It also looks truly great. The wrap around works great. regarding blackout, a little bit of light gets through the gap between the curtain and the wall, as is the case with any rod. The gap is not large on this rod. (Though I love this rod, I'm going to figure out some arrangement so that there's no gap at all, like attaching a rod directly to the wall so the curtain is basically sealed against the frame. Not sure if this exists. I'm looking for absolute blackout.) ... show more

  • Perfect for the price, but you need a drill and they are easily scratched
Color: Nickel Size: 28" to 48" Style: Single Rod
I have been looking for a good set of curtain rods for my blackout curtains for quite some time. These Amazon Basic curtain rods have been perfect for my bedroom. The rods have a great design and finish that goes with just about any decor. The nickel finish perfectly complements my 1915-era windows. Installation tips: Installation was a bit challenging at first, but I was quickly able to get them up. You might want to have a helping hand with you during installation because it makes it easier to ensure your rod is leveled perfectly. I found it was easiest to assemble the curtain rod and hold it up to where you are planning to mount the rod. Once everything is level and in order, I used a pencil to mark the holes. This all sounds simple, but this is where it got difficult for me. The directions say that you can use a 1/4" drill bit to drill a hole for the drywall anchors, however I was drilling into solid wood and didn't need the anchors. The way the mounting brackets are designed makes it completely impossible to fit a power drill close to the screw holes. I was able to drive in the screws one-third of the way before the bracket blocked my drill and the screws started to strip. If you use a lot of force the screw heads start to strip easily. I found out that if you're planning on screwing into solid wood without the anchors you need to drill a 9/64" hole (or similar) and the screw will easily go in to your wood while still being super sturdy. I pulled on my curtain rods after mounting them and they would not budge at all. I won't have to worry about these falling on me. Important center brace tip: Once you start to install the center brace for the larger sized sets, be careful putting to rod back in! Cover the center brace with some fabric while you screw in the rod because the brace badly scratches the rod if they rub against each other! Design: The curved ends of the rods really helps "seal off" your curtains for the optimal black-out effect. I've noticed that the finish on these rods easily comes off if you scratch it, so it'll be interesting to see how the finish holds up against the metal curtain grommets and opening and closing the curtains daily. Also, the curtains often get caught on the part of the rod where the smaller one meets the big one, but this isn't too big of a problem, just make sure you don't pull to hard and rip it all down! Overall I am happy that I chose these curtain rods. I was able to install two of these in under an hour and they are a subtle compliment to any window. I definitely will be keeping these up for years and years! ... show more

  • simple & effective
not the easiest to install solo - would definitely recommend finding someone to lend an extra hand. the color is as pictured, and I appreciate the extra dry wall anchors included in the hardware. my curtains easily slide back and forth, and it’s sturdy.

  • Surprisingly good. Wrap around feature a must-have for blackout curtains
Color: Black Size: 88" to 120" Style: Single Rod
I used these to hang my $400 fancy Pottery Barn blackout curtains. No flaws in the matte black finish. The hardware/screws seem robust. I ended up drilling these into the wood studs. Be sure to drill a pilot hole first and some beeswax/barsoap on the screw helps, too (old woodworker's trick). I have a 76" -wide window to cover so I needed the center support. It interfers slightly with the curtain overlap, but no light gets through. I don't think I can avoid having a center support with that wide of a window to cover. ... show more
