Moen Curved Adjustable Spring Tension No Drill Shower Curtain Rod for Bathroom, Brushed Nickel Finish, CSR2172BN

For yearsI have wanted a curved shower curtain rod for my tub/shower. I've experienced one in my son's guest bath and really enjoyed the extra space that it gives you in the shower. My 35 year old straight tension rod finally gave out so I started my Amazon search for a new one. Most rods that I found had to be permanently mounted (screwed in the tile) and I didn't want to do that for several reasons.Recently I found several available on Amazon that were tension mountable. The only downside was that the added extension depth was only about 6" and I thought that I wanted more than that, I decided to give one a try and I'm glad I did,I chose the Moen version based on their reputation in the plumbing hardware world. It was relatively easy to install. I did it myself but it would have been a little easier with help from one other person.It is sturdy and looks great. I would recommend this rod without reservation!

Easy to install. Very pretty brushed nickel shower curtain rod! Very sturdy and holds the curtain perfect but allows for extra space with the curved feature.

I do like the quality of this product, colors nice and easy enough to install. Hasn’t rusted in a few years, what I don’t like is that it turns and angles downward and droops like pictured. I had a professional install it so it’s not a user error.

i don't often leave reviews, but this product from moen proves the exception. i don't see how anyone could give this less than five stars; it is by far the best made shower rod i have ever seen. sturdy and high quality materials. ingenious design with button hole adjustment plus a cam tightener for perfect tension. beautiful finish. the end of rod covers are a definite plus.if you are looking for a high quality, easy to install curved shower rod, look no further. this is it.

Being attacked by the shower curtain mid shower is incredibly annoying. This solves it, gives you much more breathing room and no sticking curtain liner. YAY. I love not having to leave drill holes as I'm a renter. Super easy to install, just remember 2 important things. 1. add the end pieces on before you start, and 2. make sure the portion of the bar with the buttons and holes (for getting the correct width) is face down so it will not interfere with your curtain rings. As noted by another reviewer, yes there is some space between the bar and the edge pieces, but there has to be in order to compensate for different angles. Different length showers will result in a different angle coming from the wall. that space is necessary to allow for this. Highly recommend, more space, easy to hang!

The thing has been a total headache as long as I have had it. We were so happy with it when we first put it up. But it will not hold the tension to keep the rod up. It bows down after just a week or two and you have to readjust. It has left a black mark on both sides of the wall because we have to readjust it so often. Now it will not get tight and keep the rod up at all; it bows down like a U and looks so terrible and the curtain won't stay closed because it slides down the U. I only paid this much for a curtain rod, to get the extra space in the shower. Looks good initially, but does not hold up at all. Don't waste your money. Just get the regular rod.

Tried another brand before this and this design is much better. It's easily installable by a single person, very solid once installed, and it looks great. Instructions are clear, but I wish they had called out to check if the adjustment screw at the end was all the way in before starting - I assumed it was my first go around, and it didn't arrive that way, and you definitely want to start the installation with that all the way short. Make sure to leave enough room at the ends for the decorative covers, and don't forget to put the little bushing between the two rods in place before tightening it, and you'll be swinging your elbows free in your shower in no time at all! Super pleased with this purchase.

I'm very happy with this curtain rod. It is heavy duty, looks modern, and hasn't shifted or fallen down. A bit fussy to put up, and it's best to have a second pair of hands! Made a real difference in how much space I have in the tub/shower now, even though it only adds a few inches.
