It is a beautiful curtain rod but the man who installed it told me that it seems to be of poor quality and will not last long. I am not an expert to judge. However, it looks fine to the eye. The most basic and annoying thing for me is the plastic in the middle, where the curtain rod opens, because the curtain always gets stuck at that point and does not open and close easily. I need to move each ring one by one every time. In addition, if you open it to its full length, that is, if you use the extension it offers you, it creates a "belly" in the center.

Overall: Affordable and good.
1) It is slightly thinner than some other similar curtain rods I had purchased.
2) Because it is extendable, there is a point in the middle where the curtain gets stuck, but that's how all extendable rods are.
3) The decorative ends are a bit difficult to align straight. Basically, the decorative pieces that come with the curtain rod are a bit crooked. It requires some handywork to straighten them out.

Easy to hang and very beautiful to the eye, the oxidized color matches my space, beautiful.
