    I recently remodeled my bathroom and wanted brushed nickel finish Shower rings to match my other fixtures. Deicded on these for their looks instead of reading the reviews. Opened the box and was happy with the finish – but halfway through installation one broke. For something meant to be bent for installation you’d think they’d use a a material that wasn’t so brittle. I don’t want to go through the hassle of removing and returning them so I’m just going to live with 11 instead of 12. Next time I’ll do more research. Bummer!

    I expect this item would have been exactly what I wanted but just as I was getting to the end of the somewhat annoying process of installing the shower curtain rings, one snapped in half. Clearly defective or cheap. Now here’s the problem. It took me 10 minutes to take down my old shower curtain rings and 10 minutes to put the new ones up (until the 2nd to last one broke). I called Amazon customer service hoping I could send back only the broken ring for a single ring or complete package replacement (however they do it), otherwise I’d have to spend 10 minutes taking the new ones down and 10 minutes putting the old ones up just to do it all over again when the replacements arrived. As my luck would have it, I got the most incompetent customer service representative (Michelle) who seemed to not understand a single word of English. Without listening or even attempting to think about what I was saying, she simply repeated ‘we do not return partial items.’ NOT AT ALL WHAT I WAS ASKING. When I asked for her ID number she hung up on me.

    40+ minutes of my life wasted today… for an $8.99 item!@#$ You have got to be kidding me!

    While installing the rings for the first time, one of the metal rings actually broke off while trying to place it around the curtain rod. Didn’t have a spare, so had to buy another entire set of rings. I guess you get what you paid for…

    These rings are nothing fancy, but are several steps up from cheap plastic rings. They glide smoothly and could not do a better job of that than anything I’ve owned or seen.

    The construction quality is moderate. There’s nothing terribly bad about it, nor are they built like anything well beyond this product’s price point. I would not recommend snapping these open and stretching them to get them around your shower rod. They are not designed for that. For an existing rod, take it down and slide these on when you first get them. It’s a far better way to remove your old rings while you are at it. If you are installing a new rod, slide these on before mounting it. Open and close the rings only to put curtains on or take them off.

    I’m using these with a high quality sturdy chrome rod that is well anchored. I have not tried them with a cheaper force fit type aluminum rod so I can’t say whether these would help avoid problems in that scenario. But I can say that these don’t look out of place on my shower rod and performance is top notch.

    If you are expecting something that looks like the picture and works very well, that’s exactly what you get. Any set of “rings” can be installed or removed most quickly by removing the rod, but if you want rings that can be snapped on or off one at a time, you need a snap open ring rather than a hook style that’s technically not a ring. This set works as designed.
