Faulty engineering

While installing this shower curtain, it is almost impossible to drill the front drills in because the curve of the shower rod leaves little room for a drill, screwdriver or even your hand. Then the escutcheons do not snap into place, they are currently hanging there and we are probably going to have to return this shower curtain because they won't snap into place. Already spent an hour installing and an hour trying to get the escutcheons to snap into place.

[Rewarded Review] Great Finishing Touch on New Shower

We remodeled our old tub/shower combination into a wheelchair accessible shower which meets our new needs. Every shower deserves some "bling" however and this Kohler shower rod was a perfect addition at a great price.

Easy install. Product looks great. Another quality product from Kohler.

Compared to previous designs

Shower rod is a good product however there is some difficulty installing the rod without a second person. We have an older designed product that was a much better design for single installation, however it seems that product is no longer available.Stainless steel is a very good material to consider in a wet environment. I would caution you to use plastic or nylon curtain rings and not metal in order to avoid scratching the surface. Even stainless can get minor rust in places. Once installed, this rod appears to be working well, stays in place and handles the wet environment. Two more comments: make sure you use drywall anchors for a secure installation if you are not able to screw into wood, and use a car wax/silicone finish on the metal before first using the product. Can prevent minor scratches and also aids in enabling the curtain rings to move freely.

Great looking shower rod!

This is a great looking shower rod! I love the curved rod style because it gives much more room in the shower. My guy hung it pretty high which makes the shower feel much bigger too.
