Worked perfectly to hang my black out curtains
These hooks are the best! I live in an apartment that faces East and I can't drill holes into the walls. I used 3 hooks to hang up some black out curtains. The black out curtains were 54x86, 2 panels, weighing 4lbs total. I order those from Amazon too and just noticed the item weight/shipping weight. The cafe rod is 7/16 in diameter and adjustable for 48-86 for width and that fits perfectly in the hook. I did originally order a 7/8 cafe rod, but it was too thick for the hook so you want to ggo with anything smaller than 7/8. I got the smaller cafe curtain rod at bed bath and beyond.
I used 3 just to be safe but I could have used 2 hooks. I can open and close my curtains really easily and there is not indication of unstableness. I did follow the command instructions (press for 10 seconds, remove hook, press for 30 seconds, put hook back, leave for 1 hour) before hanging my curtains so I think that also helped.
