Guests are saying
This shower curtain rod has received mixed feedback from guests, with many expressing frustration over its inability to hold tension and stay in place. While some appreciate its sleek design and ease of installation, the frequent falling and poor adhesive quality have led to disappointment. Guests have found it suitable for light decorations but warn against using it for heavier items. Overall, it may serve well for temporary or decorative uses but lacks reliability for everyday shower curtain needs.

Does Not Stay Up Ever
I have had this rod for about 9 months now and it has fallen close to 20 times. I was just in the shower minding my business when suddenly this rod comes plummeting down onto my face from 10 feet in the air. I cannot explain how difficult it is to put this thing back up after your entire bathroom gets sprayed with water. If you so much as breathe in the wrong direction of this rod it starts attacking you from 10 feet in the air. My shower curtain is near the texture of linen, and weighs almost nothing. Unless you want to face near death on a regular basis, please I beg you buy anything BUT this shower rod.

Weak
Looks sleek but it doesn’t hold up. Every couple weeks it falls and I have to put it back up again. I’ve wondered if the curtain is too heavy but it’s a Target curtain and no weight limit is listed. Do not recommend unless you’re hanging a feather.

Buy a different rod.
Looks good but the tension is not very strong and keeps falling down.

Bought this rod a couple months ago, my shower curtain continuously falls down. I’ve tried every adjustment. Don’t get!

Do Not Recommend
These just don’t work. The suspension is faulty and they constantly fall.

This rod lasted me only a little over a year, it looks nice but go with something else that’s actually quality.

do not buy
Terrible-- the plastic threader is worthless and does not hold tension. Used for 10 months, and now it's totally broken.

Does not work
I thought I’d bought a broken rod so exchanged it and it still will not stay up. Waste of time for sure.

Trash!! Beware
Will be returning immediately! Bought two new rods and after me and my husband fighting with it trying to keep it from unlocking and falling down, had us wore out! Don't waste your time with the adhesive for the ends since they will roll up and detach anyway. Don't waste your time or money. Garbage.

Junk
Doesn’t last longer than a couple months. I am on my fourth one before a friend finally said it’s not normal to need to replace so frequently.

Quality control fail
I'm writing this after placing an order for another product from another store. Initially had to replace the first two of these cuz they wouldn't extend. The third one that seemed to 'work' just doesn't stay in place despite multiple troubleshooting steps. Target is great but this product is an absolute fail.

If you want to replace it in 6 months, buy it
I put this in the guest bathroom in early June. It's mid-December, and the tensioner is broken, rendering it useless. It didn't even last 7 months.

Lasted 2 Months
Stayed in place for about a month, then kept repeatedly falling down until the spring mechanism broke completely and it could no longer be adjusted. Complete waste of money and time!

Faulty-Will not stay mounted
This rod will not stay mounted! I purchased two. Both continue to fall even when no one is on the bathroom. I wish I had returned it when I had the chance but I thought it was just me. These rods are faulty!
