Kenney Seville 5/8" Standard Decorative Window Curtain Rod, 28-48", Steel, Matte Black

This was very easy to set up and the end result looked great. A big concern for me was the sturdiness since I own a cat and she frequently likes to climb curtains, but I had no problems at all and the curtain rod remained stable.

I found the rods to be stiffer and stronger than I expected. I didn't realize they came with the necessary brackets (3) of them to mount the rod, so I had purchased adjustable brackets which I ended up not using. The included brackets are a fixed 2.5 inch spacing from the wall which worked for my application. The finials are attached by a simple finned friction fitting, they are not interchangeable end to end as the rods are two different diameters. I found them to fit reasonably well. The brackets were easy to install although the screws provided with the brackets are junk, after installing the second screw (into a stud), the head snapped off. I didn't use any more of the included screws, but went to a simple drywall screw which fit and secured it fine. The finish was nice and I'm pleased with the purchase. It beats traveling to Home Depot, searching through the offerings with no details or reviews and then waiting in line to pay. I would definitely purchase this brand again.

This style of the Kenney curtain rod is attractive, study, but lightweight. The decorative ends screw on and fit well. A drill is needed to predrill holes in studs. The traditional design of the brackets makes it difficult to use a screwdriver to reach the screw. The drop of the rod holder gets in the way. My previous purchase of a Kenney brand curtain rod was designed with tiny pin nails that entered the wall at angle with just a light tap of a hammer, with the rod holder positioned out of the way. There was no need to find a stud or use a drill, which is the design I expected when I ordered this one.

Nice rods

Superbe, une belle allure chic. L'extrêmité à une bonne grosseur, comme je m'y attendais. J'ai une fenêtre ayant 2 angles et j'ai été en mesure de plier la pôle sans qu'elle se brise et soutient très bien les rideaux! Très satisfaite, je recommande A+
