Within a couple months these hooks began to rust. I've never seen shower curtain hooks do that before.
It has happened 4 out of 5 time so far. I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing these hooks. Even with a heavy 13 gauge weighted liner and a cloth shower curtain, 2-3 hooks come off the rod every time I get out of the shower. Yes, it gets annoying but at this point it's too late to return them. I gave it 2 stars because they do "look" nice.
Then I have to hang two or three back on it again. I bought mine at Lowe's for a buck more so it is a good deal on the price. OK, if you are a morning person you may not mind having to every day sloooooowly open and slooooowly close your cutain with these things so they won't fall off. I gave two stars because they are really pretty and dress up my curtain and bathroom. BUT, i am glad i saved the box cause i can't handle the effort so early in the morning. ANd even with much care to avoid it, some will still come off the rod. I love the way they look on the rod, but for me, convenience and peace is more important than decorative style. I am actually on here looking for the cheap old fashioned ones that won't fall off every morning.
These hooks jump off the rod with no provocation, and tangle together like wire coat hangers. Who needs a shower curtain to get your day off to a frustrating start. Not me. (Oh, NO). Don't buy 'em, no matter how pretty they are.
Fortunately you can't do that much, because they stick on the rod rather than gliding smoothly. I've had these for a few years now and they're not terrible, but they have some very big flaws. Yes, they do occasionally fall off the rod, especially if you whip the curtain back and forth. I have a white tension rod which now has black all over the top of it from these things rubbing against it. They do look good, but they just don't work so well.
