Great curtain rods. They look fantastic in the room and are exactly the shade of gold I was hoping for. My only problem with them was the mounting of the brackets. Due to the manner in which the hook sits, it is very easy to drill a screw into the top, but the bottom is incredibly difficult. I stripped 2 screws before I finally just drilled the screw half-way into the wall and did the rest by hand with a screwdriver. However, I'm also not the most "handy" guy in the world, so with better/different tools I'm sure it would've been a much easier process. 

Other than installation, I'm incredibly content with the look and strength of the set. 10/10 would recommend.
