slides easily, does not holdRalphslides easily, does not hold tossed it1
Horrible shower curtain rodTaviaIt does NOT tighten at all no matter which way you turn it. The spring is at the end but does not create any tension. A true waste of money. I will be returning it ASAP.1
Missing parts, difficult to use.HannahThe curtain rod was missing parts and appeared to not have the end caps in the correct quantities and sizes to function. The spring tension aspect did not function correctly.1
Where’s the tension?ValerieThis is the single worst tension rod I’ve ever used. I know how to install a tension rod, this one just refuses to stay taught, even in perfectly fine conditions. We would have purchased a tension rod somewhere else, but happened to pick one up when we saw one at Ikea while shopping for something else. Wish we had saved the $10.1
Doesn't workKrisIt seems impossible to install this correctly following the directions. After setting the rod to the appropriate length per the instruction and then compressing the spring to install, the spring gives way and the rod is too short for install. Over and over I tried.1
Doesn’t work, waste of moneyColleenIt is impossible to lock at the right width. It won’t stay up on its own, definitely couldn’t hold up a curtain1
Will not stay upJanetThis curtain rod would not stay up on my tile bathtub shower area would keep falling down. My daughter realize that after reading a bit, she’d have to put the rod actually on the painted wall area above the tile and it does stay now, but we should stay also with the tile is my last one never had a problem1
WeakThomasRod keeps falling down. I follow the instruction but it keeps slipping out of place and is too weak to hold up the shower curtain and liner. While I do love my IKEA shower curtain and liner, this rod is awful.1
Doesn't stay upRentaroDuring the first year it fell maybe twice. Now it falls once a week. It looks like the internal mechanism no longer works as designed because the plastic parts are worn.1
It works in a van!AshleyThis shower curtain is adjustable and able to hold itself to the sides of our van to curtain off the living space from the cab. It hasn’t fallen once. So I think it would be sturdy in a shower as well.5
Don't buyElenaIt doesn't stay up for long. The ends don't gave afhesive or anything to make it more secure. The system doesn't work well, it constantly falls down, but you won't realize until a day later or so, so now we don't gave the original packaging and won't let me return it. Waste of money.1
No Spring, no tensionKateI logged back into Ikea just to check if I had made an error with my purchase - i.e. this is just a rod, not a tension rod, or if this was defective - i.e. tension rod no spring. In my case it is a 'tension' rod with no spring. Buyer beware. It's a real pain to get to/from Ikea so this goes in the trash. If you want to chance it, when you buy in store, open the plastic before you leave the lot. Check for spring.1

It feels pretty solidTinaThe quality is good~and easy to use it5
Terrible, don’t buyAndyTerrible rod, worked for a couple of months then keeps breaking down. I keep having to fix it and eventually gave up. This product sucks, please save your money. 1
Not staying upJacintaThe rod could not stay up. I will be returning it 1
Good price and decent qualityRolandNot as string-loaded as I would have expected. Hopefully it will stay up.4
Won't stay upAnonymous reviewerI am a seasoned IKEA customer and was skeptical when others said it wouldn't stay up. I assumed they simply misread the instructions, but I was wrong. I installed the rod and was happy to see that it stayed in place... for all of three days. I woke up this morning to see it had fallen down. The spring seems to be defective as I can no longer get it to lock at the length I needed. Even in the locked position, a small amount of pressure will cause it to shrink in size, allowing it to fall down. I'm so disappointed—I loved the look of it. I will be returning it next time I'm at IKEA.1
Shower rodNanWas a bit tricky to extend and give tension had to work with it for a bit to get the correct length. Hopefully it does not rust. I don’t believe it will with the shower rings we also got to use along with. Told the kids don’t pull on it. Hopefully it hold up5
