It looks great, but ...
This rod is much harder to install than the video on Moen's website would lead you to believe. I may not be the finest home DIY person, but this was not a good time. Additionally, I was disappointed to discover that the flanges on each end (used to attach the rod to the walls) are made of cheap plastic. Given that "Creative Specialists" and the Inspiration line are supposed to be Moen's upscale line, they should have used metal flanges.

They could have thrown in a couple of wood screws. One last note: the rods with the "DN" prefix are the retail version. The rods which have part numbers beginning with "CRS" are contactor grade. The retail DN models use a better grade of metal than the lower cost contractor's version. It looks great and is reasonably well made (except for the cheapo flanges), but have someone else do the installation. [...]
