I have no choice but to give it one star, or else it would have received zero. The finials are way way too heavy to support the rod. You better install them perfectly or else you will have a problem with the weight of the finials. Wrong finials were shipped to me and when I called to tell them that, they said the finials I ordered were discounted. They asked that I return them but I already had installed the brackets before I placed the finials since the finials were the last pieces to be installed. They would not allow a return unless I actually removed every single bracket I had installed which were 12 of them. I kept the darn finials.
