Maytex Metal Ball Shower Ring, Brushed Nickel

They are of good quality and will last forever.

Nice, sturdy, subtle shower curtain hook. Bought this set as a temporary until I found the perfect curtain and hooks, but have been so pleased with the look and performance, that I have moved the replacement task further down my to-do list.The brushed nickel is simple and modern. The metal has not tarnished or rusted and the metal is smooth so it doesn't dig into the shower curtain rod or scratch it up. The hooks are sturdy and have not sagged or bent, or worse, snapped! It is very easy to hook to the curtain and rod and the rounded ends keep it from damaging the curtain. I like that it offers a subtle, clean look.

Nothing terribly fancy about these shower hooksbut they do the job. They seem solid and well made, and should fit most shower bars. We have a tension shower bar that has a small lip in the middle of it where the telescoping part comes together, and these have no issue sliding back and forth over that.

I had rings that were difficult to get apart and, since I am not tall, exhausted me with the reaching effort required to grapple with each and every one of them. These rings make it easy to remover the curtain for laundering. It is a white background curtain and with all the pets we have there is always a dirty band right along the edge where they would rub the curtain against the tub. So much easier now.

I am using them now, and they will do.My complaint, if there was one would be the fit of them on the rod. Unlike typical rings/hooks, they tend to jam up when you pull the curtain across. And they make a very unpleasant noise when sliding across my brushed metal rod compared to other hooks.Other than that, I"ll keep them.
