They look nice installed but they are not as sturdy as I was hoping, especially when extended to their full length and with the weight of the curtains on them. Even when installed level, being extended and having curtains hanging pulls the rod down so that it is no longer level. A tip is to install so that the rod is angled upward slightly, such that the weight of the curtains will pull it back down to level. Aside from that, they are relatively easy to install, and I was able to easily get replacement hardware (due to some of the hardware being missingbroken).
