Corner Shower Rod, Track Style, 67"x36" Alt. 40"x63", Clear Finish

I bought this because the size (lenght & width) was adjustable- using a hacksaw, and I thought it would allow me to open the shower curtain all the way, instead of having to stop at the ceiling support like the other fixed L-shaped rod systems.

Unfortunately, the hooks/guides get hung up in the track at the junction where sections come together. Since the rod comes in 3 pieces, there are 2 places where the hooks get hung up. Because of this the shower curtain doesn't open/close smoothly; you have to play with it to get it through the junctions. I ended up switching out the sections and put the longest piece into the wall bracket; at least this way I have 30" of free movement before it gets hung up at the first junction.

It would be helpful if this product only had 2 long sections joining at the curve. At least that way the curtain could open almost the entire length of the tub before getting hung up.

This is a very clever curtain rod. Since the shower curtain moves in a track along the bottom of the rod it will not be affected by the ceiling support allowing the curtain to be maneuvered freely along the entire rod, I've never seen one like it. Flexible and easy installation. Highly recommended, I already ordered one for my second bathroom!

I was surprised at how light the packaging was for this product. I thought it would contain more metal, versus almost all plastic. Was a bit concerned that it would not support the weight of the shower curtain. However, after installing it, it seems to do the job. However, like one reviewer mentioned, hooks that glide on the rod, which by the way is in two pieces, does kink around the joint. It could have been designed better. However, for the price, compared to ones that cost 3x's as much, it does the job.
