Interdesign Axis Shower Hooks With Ball - Chrome

I've come to realize with bathroom hardware that chrome means chrome plated, much like some chrome plated plumbing fixtures that just flake off and grow rust. These hooks have already started rusting and have gotten rust on my shower curtain. They must be chrome plated iron or something. Also, the hook end isn't quite long enough to keep them on the rod if you have a plastic curtain liner. The stiffness of the plastic liner just lifts one or more hooks right off the rod with every use. When I changed to a fabric liner and babied it, this happened much less, if at all. I thought I would save money and get these hooks, but now they have to be discarded. Too bad.
Two stars for technically being shower curtain hooks.
