Moen 54-6 Donner Commercial 6' Shower Rod, Chrome

 (6 customer reviews)

I just want to recommend this shower rod. The chrome finish is very nice. After cutting the rod to the right size, the tightening end really secured the rod with adjustable tension. Very sturdy, without the slipping my previous rod had sometimes, and the continous rod is easier to slide my curtain from one end to the other. I was used to the lip on my previous one that required an extra yank to get the rings to pass over, no more yank. :)

I like this rod it is pretty much what I expected and I was not disappointed. You have to measure and cut it to length, no big deal if you have appropriate tools. Strongly in it's favor are the fact that there is no joint near the middle of the rod for the curtain rings to hang up on. I also really like the very bright, somewhat satiny finish. Overall, it is well designed, economical, practical and good looking. One of the chrome finish plastic end pieces has adjusting threads, so you don't have to measure to perfection. There are rubber-like pads on each end for grip and to protect the finish of your wall or enclosure.

When I ordered this, I was not aware this was not a compressable rod. Be aware you will need a hacksaw to cut the rod to size. There are no instructions but you need to cut the rod about 1 3/4" shorter than the shower opening to account for the fittings. Nice polished finish.
