Urn Telescoping Double Drapery Rod Set, 36-72", Bronze

I have been using these for a while now to cover the ribbon windows in my living room and they work great. I have 2 different sets of windows, one with 4 windows and one with 3, so finding a rod that looked right across that much space was important. These were actually very easy to install and the antique bronze finish looks nice without being too shiny or distracting. The telescoping part is smooth so I didn't have to struggle to get the length right for the wider sections. They feel sturdy enough to hold up both layers of curtains without sagging in the middle which was my main worry for such a long span.

I needed to purchase a curtain rod for my bedroom window asap. I just started working graveyard and needed something classy but affordable. My windows in my bedroom are corner windows making it difficult to find the right fit. I also wanted to have the option of blackout or sheer curtains depending on when I want the sunlight. I ended up purchasing two of these & rod connectors (sold separately) and I must say it worked out pretty well. I love that they are double rods. My windows are only 42” to 52” and I felt that they were very sturdy. Not sure how it might work for a wider window with heavier curtains though. The rods come with 3 brackets (I bought 2 sets so 6 altogether). Super easy to install and they look nice. If you do plan on using them for a corner window like me I would suggest buying smaller connectors. I still made it work though. Definitely worth the price.

This rod set provides a fairly sturdy option for medium weight curtains and draperies. Unless excessive force is used when opening the window treatments, they are durable enough to last many years. The finish appears to be resilient and the look is pleasing. Approximately 2 inches in diameter at their greatest width, the finials are not large. They are just as pictured in the illustration. Keep in mind that the rod diameter is half that at 1 inch. If something dramatic is required, this may not be the best option. The price is a little high for the look in my opinion, hence I rated it at 4 stars, however it's less than offerings I've seen in brick and mortar stores, though the look they afford may be a bit more impressive. Since I wanted something that had a sleek look without being pretentious, this options works well for me and the price is somewhat more agreeable. Installation is quite straightforward as long as there is something solid behind the wall to hold the screws securely, or insert the enclosed plastic hangers into oversized drill holes. Also, if you need to install over windows in a corner of your room, just remove the finials from the apposing ends making certain that you place the hangers close enough to the corner taking care to properly appose one rod end to the other rod while leveling the horizontal positioning of the rods respective to each other and you don't need to purchase a rod assembly that curves around the corner, which are usually very expensive. Just bring the draperies close to each other and the rod ends will be obscured by the fabric. Because of the width of my windows and two situations in which the windows oppose each appose each other at corners of the room, I was able to order one 72-144-inch and two each 36-72-inch rod assemblies for installation over one 90-inch windows and three 54-inch windows - that's 3 rod assemblies for 4 windows. I just cut the various rod segments to traverse the length of the windows involved being conservative to allow for slightly more than what I felt would be minimally required for unit strength and then I used the finials removed for the apposing corners to provide for the additional rod assemblies, thus saving myself the cost of one additional 36-72-inch rod unit. Each rod assembly comes with 3 support brackets, however a 54-inch run does not require a middle support, so that freed up the middle support from the two smaller rod units with which to provide for the additional 54-inch run. There was enough telescoping rod material to accommodate up to around a 100-inch run and three 60-inch runs if your windows are slightly larger. If you run out, the worst case scenario is simply that you'll have to order another rod assembly of your chosen length - not such a terrible outcome. I would order this product again.

Great for the price. I used these to curtain a wall behind my bed. When you get them, take the rods completely apart and toss the plastic caps used for shipping. Sort by size, 3 smallest are for inside rod, 3 largest for outside rod. Reassemble each set with the two largest pieces on the outside ends and the smaller inside. DO NOT put the decorative caps on till the very last, but do make sure you have the correct ends on the outside. You will need to do this for both sizes of rods. When you install the brackets, undo the thumb-screws (that are used to secure the rods later) all the way out or the rods won't fit. This is VERY important if you are installing them by yourself, otherwise you'll be climbing down, moving the ladder and climbing back up a couple dozen more times than you plan to. After the brackets are up, you will have to put half your inside (sheers) on one end of the rod; insert that rod into the end bracket and center bracket (use the small center rod to reach the center bracket). With that resting on the brackets, put the other half of the sheers on the other rod piece. Now slide that rod over the smaller center section of rod resting in the center bracket, and back it into the remaining bracket. Now you can put the decorative ends on. Don't tighten the thumbscrew in the center till you have the ends lined up the way you want them (I didn't tighten mine at all). Now you can fluff the curtains to even the folds. Follow the same procedure for the top curtain (or valance or whatever you are using) This rod set is nice and sturdy. If you can't find the color you want for the end pieces, the rods and brackets are nearly black and you can easily spray-paint the endcaps (or not even use them for a sleek look.) My end caps seem to have a brassy tone, so I'll likely darken them next time I have the energy to haul that ladder through the house again. It took me a little less than an hour to install, but my small room has 10' ceilings and trying to work around the furniture that I couldn't move very far. Also plaster and lath is difficult to drill through, so it was hard to get high enough to get good leverage. I needed a LONG Phillips bit in my screw gun to clear the curve in the bracket. I actually didn't need the double rod, but it was a better price than the single and I like to change things on occasion so may need it in the future.

Would definitely buy this again! Relatively easy to put up with one person as I did, but would go faster with 2...esp to hold the level while marking the holes for the brackets. As others have stated, the holes are a little difficult to get to. The brackets seem sturdy even though they don't seem to be 100% straight... They are slightly twisted, but it doesn't interfere with anything and really isn't noticeable. I haven't 100% tested the light factor, but in the early afternoon with the lights off, it seemed to be doing a pretty darn good job! Here's some tips that might help those trying to decide whether these are good for blackout curtains and darkening rooms: 1) The way around the mounting holes clearance is to drill or use the screw to make a pilot hole... Depending on what material you're putting it into (I was installing them on paneling)... Put one screw in with a regular screwdriver until it's almost all the way in and then put the other screw in the same way. While it's loose, the bracket can lean to the side as you're screwing it in. Once the screws are almost in, hold the bracket back against the wall, and it will be easier to tighten the rest of the way. 2) a 4' bubble level and a small (even 2") bubble level help immensely. I used the four foot to level the brackets across and then I used a smaller level to level the bracket vertically. 3) I'm not sure how wide I made the rod altogether, but it worked out perfect because half of the rod sits in the two right brackets then the second half of the rod slides into the left. I think in the long run, this will make it sturdier versus it resting on the rod that slides inside, but I realize it's not possible with all situations. I also butted the end knobs up against the bracket and used the set screws to help hold them in place. Since I won't be opening and closing them a lot, I can't tell you how well it'll hold up to actually sliding the curtains across the bars without them moving, but I'm sure if you use a screwdriver to tighten the set screws instead of just finger tight, they will definitely hold the rod in place. 4) As you can see in the pictures, I have grommet room-darkening curtains. I overlapped the two curtains in the middle and took the last grommet, brought it out over the front rod and just hooked the Grommet over the knob on the back rod. That brings the curtain closer to the wall and will hopefully eliminate any side light. Overlapping the two curtains doesn't affect being able to open the curtains either...except sliding them open (obviously).They can still be pulled back far enough to let enough light and breeze in when needed. The last picture is to give you an idea on how close the curtain rods are to the window. A lot closer than I expected. The molding on my windows are an inch thick.

It's so pretty and vintage which even sometimes I still keep looking them in my living room after I've had used the for several years. Wonderful quality and classic appearance, love it!!

Sturdy double rod.
