Extremely pleased with this great product. Delivery on 2nd attempt..and when it arrived I was very impressed. The packing was firm, and it arrived in good shape. The manufacturers rigid cellophane packing and associated fenders were of quality. I had ordered a 200 cms pole and needed to cut to size smaller. This did'nt take lone, although the metal was a strong cylinder .The fittings were Of excellent quality, and the Finials were made of a heavy material..most satisfying. The curtain rings had an inner sleeve to give ease of sliding, together with silence of movement . You will gather from my comments that I am very pleased with the purchase, and would have no hesitation in the event I need another, to buy from you again.
