Windows Treatments Look Great
We purchased this double rod for our sliding doors in our dining room and master bedroom. They look great. We are able to have a layer of sheers and a more opaque layer to block the sun. The quality of the product is very good and was easy to install. We used heavy duty wall anchors to make sure they would not fall with repeated opening and closing of curtains. The only problem we've had is that the curtain sometimes gets caught on the part of the rod where it telescopes. But for a 170" rod, it is a good product at a reasonable price.

As advertised
Arrived promptly, comes in an Umbra box. Was relatively easy to hang with mounting hardware provided. Both poles are secured in place with a small hex screw which is tightened with a provided hex tool. Seems quite secure with a heavy curtain.
Looks great on the wall, product was as advertised.

Good Curtain Rods
Everything I was looking for. Stylish and functional.
Opening and closing the curtain on one side is slightly tricky because the hole gets stuck on the lip where the rod is extended, but I can live with that.

Doesn't Measure Up
I ordered this rod after ordering two other rods at Crate and Barrel. I have a window space of 124 inches - all three rods stated between 140-170 inches. Two of the room darkening rods actually measured 108 inches and this one barely measured 120 inches rods laying side by side in length. Crate and Barrel is a great company and looking into the Manufacture. If you need anything over 110 inches this will not work.

silver is the new white
all the fixtures in my apt are silver so of course i made sure the curtain rods matched. it's a little touch but just pulls the whole room together.

Great for Darkening Curtains in Nursery
This rod set is great for use in any room that you want to darken by adding a pair of black-out curtains. We use it in our daughter's nursery. We love that it allowed us to hang darkening curtains in the back and a prettier more decorative curtain in the front. Instructions and assembly were fairly simple and straightforward. The rod looks amazing in her nursery - I absolutely love the beautiful nickel finish!

As expected
Perfectly good quality, unobtrusive details. Priced as expected for C&B, neither adds nor detracts from the window treatments.

Umbra Hardware
The hardware works ok. We have two 70 inch sliding doors so we purchased the 48”-88” rods because the 88”-108” rods would have been too long. Since the rods are extended the square edge of the curtain rings gets stuck against the plastic extension threshold. Also I was a little disappointed when the hardware arrived and it was a brand that could be purchased anywhere (Umbra). I was expecting it to be Crate & Barrel hardware. If I decided to purchase a food processor from Crate & Barrel it is very clear that the food processor is not made by Crate & Barrel. Not the case with this hardware.

rod not secured
I like the look of the product. The larger rod is secured to the pole by a little screw system. The second smaller rod is not held in place by anything. So when I bought a curtain for that rod I discovered that when you move the curtain the rod also slides around. I was going to return it but my husband thinks he can devise something to keep the rod in place. Not sure yet though. had I seen the brand name advertised before the rods came I would have not bought it. It is overpriced and not a good thought out design. I would prefer not to have to try and fix my new products.

This rod fits 88" - 120"
The outside frame of my windows measure exactly 108" and I was looking for something that would extend several inches beyond that. All of the rods I saw were specified as 108". I finally decided to try this rod and when I opened the package saw the specification is really 88" - 120". It was easy to install and is sturdy. It is well made, looks beautiful with my heather gray wool panels with grommets. I was so happy I immediately purchased a second set.

recommended!
great retial price compared to the competition. The stainless steel and end cap design is a great contemporary look, many compliments from visitors. A lot sturdier than expected when I saw how it was attached to the wall, but has stood up very well to our dog leaning up against the curtains.
My only issue is the when the poles are extended it leaves a little bump in the pole path and the transition is large enough that curtain rings can get a little stuck at that point. It takes a good technique of opening/closing curtains to not notice that.
Other than that, for the price, we would gladly buy again.
