I am in love with my new Exclusive Home Modern Layer 1-in. Curtain Rod! It is the perfect sleek design for my newly redone living room. I installed it to hold my curtains over my glass door to my patio. The curtains I have are very thick blackout curtains, meaning they are pretty heavy. This new curtain rod doesn’t skip a beat. Holds up my heavy curtains like a champ. The style also matches perfectly with new new decor as well. I am so happy with this new curtain rod and suggest this brand to anyone looking for something sturdy yet stylish!
