Q: Can you use these with blinds

submitted by Angela - 6 months ago
  • A: Hi Angela, No, you cannot use blinds with this rod because both would need to be installed in the same mounting location, which would interfere with proper installation and function. For more product information Please call our Customer Service @ 1-800-892-3986.

    submitted byMaytex - 6 months ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hello Angela - Great Question! Thank you for your interest in this amazing Item! Yes, you can use the Twist and Shout tension rods with blinds. Just make sure your window frame has flat interior sides and that the blinds have clearance to operate behind the curtain rod. Hope this information helps! – Luke.

    Don't Waste your Time

    This item just doesn't work. I should have known because it sounded so easy. I followed the video, I followed the written instruction. Waste of money, and I ended up having to screw it in anyway to make it work. Pretty upset about it, honestly.

    Doesn’t work. I followed the instructions but just couldn’t hold a pair of curtains. Returning the bar in the morning. The metal is very thin and I expect it will bend easily.

    I have never regretted buying anything more in my life...

    definitely not a one person install you need another person for a bigger extension.
    1 reply from the Product Manufacturer team - 18 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the installation was more difficult than expected. We understand how frustrating that can be. For larger extension lengths, having a second person assist with holding and positioning the rod during installation can make the process much easier and help ensure proper installation. Your comments regarding the installation experience will be shared with our product team for review. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

    Good idea but cheaply made. Might have worked on my window if pieces hadn’t started breaking off during install. It became unusable and I became disappointed.

    I purchased the 78”. I was a little hesitant because it showed it needed two people to install, and I had to do it by myself. However, I was able to do it. It has two blackout curtains on it so they are not terribly heavy, but they are thick. So far they seem to be holding up, and they look nice. So I’m happy since we are renting.

    Patience is key

    This rod definitely requires patience to install but does work! I was able to get two of them up alone fairly easily. My completely flat window frame was a breeze but the bumpier frame took a bit more time. I've had up the two rods holding three curtain panels apiece for several weeks now and they've held strong. I've been careful not to yank the curtains open and closed and that's probably helped. I would take the negative reviews with a grain of salt. Make sure you read the instructions and listing details carefully and consider whether the window you intend to install it in actually fits the parameters before purchasing.
