I would give 5 stars if the color description and representation wasn't so off. The color is 'light gold' but I think 'white gold' would be more appropriate. From a distance, it looks just like a nickel/gray/silver finish. You have to get really up-close to see even a hint of a gold tone. I find it annoying that I now have to spray paint these to get the gold coloring I wanted.

Other than the coloring, these rods are sturdy. Don't bother using the drywall anchors that come with the hardware, though - they are super flimsy and I couldn't get them in the pre-drilled holes without them smushing under the slightest pressure.
