Great for the price! I needed to hang curtains in my living room to prevent my cat from chewing on the cords to the blinds (please tell me I'm not the only one with this problem). These were inexpensive but still look nice in the living area. The decorative ends are plastic but you can't tell when they are hung up above the window. I am thinking of purchasing this same rod so that I can hang curtains in my bedroom (no blinds are safe here). Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants to have a cute curtain rod on a budget.
