InterDesign Forma 2 Maxi Shower Hook, Brushed Stainless Steel, Set of 12

 (3 customer reviews)

Unlike the two reviewers preceding me, I bought these Inter Design Forma 2 Maxi Shower Hooks precisely because the hook part is made of plastic. My reason being that the all stainless steel shower hooks I intended to replace make a very annoying and very loud screeching sound when the shower curtain is drawn back and forth along the metal curtain rod. Many a time an early rising shower taker has awoken other still sleeping guests and family members!

Alas, it seems now that I will not know how quietly the new shower curtain hooks will perform until (or if!)I can find a shower curtain liner that has grommet-ed hanger holes large enough to accommodate the width of the hook ends. The hooks are too big to fit through the holes in the liner!!!

I didn't read the description carefully, so I was unpleasantly surprised by the fact these hooks are plastic except for the round steel finish.

Returning these without a proven reason that it was seller's or Amazon's fault, I'd get a deduction from my refund which is 90% of my refund since the darn thing was about 15 bucks.

I guess plastic won't rust (even though stainless steel can last a long time if well-maintained) but it looks sorta cheap. Plus, the plastic hooks are a bit too wide for one of my curtain's grommets.

I ordered these becase I like the hook style more than the clip style. I like them a lot but didnt realize the hook was going to be plastic. I might end up liking that a lot because metal rusts and plastic doesnt, I just hope it doesnt stand out too much. The metal front is a nice brushed look and it is just what I was looking for...so overall very happy!
