Would definitely buy this again! Relatively easy to put up with one person as I did, but would go faster with 2...esp to hold the level while marking the holes for the brackets. As others have stated, the holes are a little difficult to get to. The brackets seem sturdy even though they don't seem to be 100% straight... They are slightly twisted, but it doesn't interfere with anything and really isn't noticeable. I haven't 100% tested the light factor, but in the early afternoon with the lights off, it seemed to be doing a pretty darn good job!Here's some tips that might help those trying to decide whether these are good for blackout curtains and darkening rooms:1) The way around the mounting holes clearance is to drill or use the screw to make a pilot hole... Depending on what material you're putting it into (I was installing them on paneling)... Put one screw in with a regular screwdriver until it's almost all the way in and then put the other screw in the same way. While it's loose, the bracket can lean to the side as you're screwing it in. Once the screws are almost in, hold the bracket back against the wall, and it will be easier to tighten the rest of the way.2) a 4' bubble level and a small (even 2") bubble level help immensely. I used the four foot to level the brackets across and then I used a smaller level to level the bracket vertically.3) I'm not sure how wide I made the rod altogether, but it worked out perfect because half of the rod sits in the two right brackets then the second half of the rod slides into the left. I think in the long run, this will make it sturdier versus it resting on the rod that slides inside, but I realize it's not possible with all situations. I also butted the end knobs up against the bracket and used the set screws to help hold them in place. Since I won't be opening and closing them a lot, I can't tell you how well it'll hold up to actually sliding the curtains across the bars without them moving, but I'm sure if you use a screwdriver to tighten the set screws instead of just finger tight, they will definitely hold the rod in place.4) As you can see in the pictures, I have grommet room-darkening curtains. I overlapped the two curtains in the middle and took the last grommet, brought it out over the front rod and just hooked the Grommet over the knob on the back rod. That brings the curtain closer to the wall and will hopefully eliminate any side light. Overlapping the two curtains doesn't affect being able to open the curtains either...except sliding them open (obviously).They can still be pulled back far enough to let enough light and breeze in when needed.The last picture is to give you an idea on how close the curtain rods are to the window. A lot closer than I expected. The molding on my windows are an inch thick.

The quality is terrific, and the size is perfect. The product is exactly as pictured, and it works great, is easy to assemble, and offers an excellent value for the money.

I would like to start by just saying these are pretty good for what you pay for them. Overall: they look nice, they're easy to install, and they're affordable. So I'm happy with them.Install:Installing these things is super easy. It comes with the hardware and instructions that are simple to follow.Tools you will need:- A standard Philips head screwdriver- Ability to read and follow instructions- Some common senseNice to have:-power drillI read a lot of the reviews on this product prior to buying it, and some of the bad reviews are totally fair (like the lady who got brackets without holes in them), and some of them are just ridiculous (like the guy who's upset because he can't fit his drill under the bracket to reach the screws). If you read and follow the instructions you won't have any problems.Measure out and drill your holes first (if you don't have a drill borrow one from a friend or something).insert the screw anchors.line up your bracket to the anchorsuse a screwdriver (which fits perfectly fine under the bracket) to screw in the screws.put curtains on the rodsinsert rods into bracketsscrew on end capsDone.Don't be that guy that tries to power drill the screws into the brackets. That's dumb, and you clearly can't follow simple instructions if you do.One of the reviews had a tip for the brackets and i'll share that here too. If you swivel the bracket around and screw in the bottom screw first and then swivel it back up and screw in the top screw it makes it a tad easier.All in all it took me like 20 minutes to put up two sets of these things.Quality:The rods themselves feel like pretty much any standard curtain rod you would buy at walmart or target. You're not going to be able to hang from them like a monkey, but they'll hold your curtains just fine. I've got some heavier blackout curtains on mine and the rod is holding up just fine.My only complain is that the extension rod goes on the end of the smaller part of the main rod, so you have a skinny rod right in the middle, but once they're up and you have curtains on it, you can barely tell.The brackets are made out of a soft metal. it feels like aluminum, so they feel a little cheap, but for what you're paying they hold up really well. As long as you're not smashing them with a hammer or something you should be pretty happy with them.Overall:If you're not an idiot, and you don't freak out over little things, then these curtain rods are great. They hold up well and they look nice. Don't expect them to be amazing. you're not paying for amazing curtain rods, but they are pretty good. I like them, and more importantly, the wife likes them.If you can't follow simple instructions (I'm lookin at you power drill) then these curtain rods aren't for you.

Easy to install. Looks good.would recommend.
