Nice bar, but cheap-looking

For the price, it's fine. It looks a bit cheap, but it was a perfect replacement for my too-small towel bar in my rented apartment. There was a slight dent in it when it was shipped, but honestly, towels are on it most of the time, so I don't even notice. Does the job.

This was the cheapest heavyweight/heavyduty hex bar I could find online that had both the high and low handles.  It weighs 75 pounds and is quite solidly constructed.  However, I will note that one of the high handles is slightly inverted by a few degrees.  Not a deal breaker by any means, but the quality control process in China is fairly hit or miss for Cap Barbell products.  I should know - I own a bunch of their stuff.  You get what you pay for.  Pricing indicates quality.  So keep in mind that this is a decent buy, but may have some minor defects.  All the welds look good, knurling is consistent, and the bar appears to be pretty close to level and weight-balanced.

Other than one handle being slightly inverted, the only other issue was shipping.  Let's face it:  this is a heavy item.  UPS drivers hate heavy items.  Mine arrived badly beaten and totally filthy.  Which I expected and was not surprised or upset about.  Lots of scrapes and dents on the bar, some small, some large.  I left packaging feedback.

It looks decent for the price.  A bit of chipping probably due to the weight; it is quite sizeable. Good luck putting it together though- the pictures were small and hard to understand, the directions to build were almost entirely drawn- not many words. Labels were wrong and some pieces were missing. But again, $100 bar area. You get what you pay for.

The bar is nice but has some issues. There are is a washer and lock washer provided to mount the bracket to the truck. Since the bolts on the truck are too short I had to go find four self locking nuts to replace them in order to mount both front brackets taking time and a small expense. Otherwise the bars are nice for the cost. The bars were delivered damaged.

Paid $29 for this lamp here.  Kinda cheap-looking, mismatched finishes on different parts aesthetically, the company's name/logo large in white on the glossy black base overly visible, not something desirable highly visible on a piece of visible furniture.  The brightness settings don't offer a non-night-light working setting sufficiently dim for my preference for night-time work, and at night the light quality is a bit cool.  It was easy to assemble.  It's a cheap-looking lamp that functions adequately.  Would not buy another one for $29.  At much lower price, say $9, could recommend it as okay value for a dorm room on a budget.  For an adult's desk, or desk of some who cares even mildy about design or aesthetics, no.

Aesthetically, it looks fine and functions well for light objects. But the price is purely outrageous for the types of materials they use. You can find similar shelves like these in Chinatown or dollar stores for (depending on where you live) probably less than half the price. If are really in a bind and need furniture delivered to you then I guess these are okay, but nobody, I mean nobody, should ever have to pay + $30 for something this cheap.

The assembly was not too difficult. I appreciate the high-quality materials for this bar. I was expecting it to be much cheaper looking. However, mine is really wobbly which makes it feel/look cheap. I had to put a pad under one of the bottom legs to even it out but it still feels pretty unstable. Anybody else have this problem?

I was really looking forward to getting this bar.  It is perfect for the space and area I needed it for.  I will say that it's functional for what I need it for, but that's where the praise ends.  The instructions that came with were difficult to follow, the hardware needed to put the bar together was not all there, some of the pieces of the bar that were screwed in were broken and when putting together the stools the pegs that were drilled in to the wood to make for easy assembly to fit in holes were mismatched causing unnecessary drilling and screwing on my part.  The bar that we received looked to be a floor model as it had some chewed up sections on the bottom of the bar, and for the topper of my list of complaints, my box came complete with it's very own prison style shank/shive made out of filed down metal with the handle wrapped in tape.  Like I said, this bar is functional for what I need it for though the quality I was expecting isn't quite there.

The LOOK of these bars are great.  We mounted on our slide out trashcan cabinet to use as the handle and also to hold the kitchen sink towel. Screwed them into the top of the cabinet so they wouldn't slide around when using.  The problem is that the metal is so thin and cheap that the two supporting bars have bent due to opening and closing of the cabinet so often.  They are obviously not meant to be used as handles as well.

Looks great online but very cheap wood. Before you put it together you better have the bar in that area because once it is together you can't move it, that's how cheap the wood is. It looks great but that's all

The bars are all plastic.  I'm ok with it.  It still does the job.  The fixtures are metal and for the cost it's a great product.  Even comes with drywall plugs.  Really like the results..

Perfect height for our bar, easy to assemble, sturdy... My only complaint is that the bottom bars , came with lots of dents already in them

Decent bar for the money.  Relatively light weight with a smooth, even paint job.

We purchased and used the extension for our extra wide windows. The bar looks a little uneven given the way that it extends. Also, there was some color variation between the bar pieces. Some had a slight copper tone, others more gold. However, bottom line, these are still way cheaper than the West Elm curtain rod that it mimics.  Consider the room, who will see the rods, how meticulous your taste is before purchasing.

The bar looks nice and will fit my needs well.  If I don't mention a feature or aspect here, consider it to be good.  The price, for instance, is great.  Many nearly-identical appearing bars cost much more, and I'm not sure why.  So, it's easiest to just list a couple downsides:

The instructions said to use a 1/4" drill bit to drill holes in drywall for the provided drywall anchors.  Guess what?  That's too big - my drywall anchors fell through when trying to screw into them, rather than holding in place.  I had to go to Lowe's and get some better ones to fit the holes I now had in my wall.

The bars are a little close together if you expect the rear towel to dry swiftly.  That being said, it is meant for a wall and you don't want it protruding too much.  I'm not sure what design change would best fix this.

The bars themselves are a just a little flexy.  Naturally, don't try to hang from them - they'll break/bend (I assume - not testing).

The item looks nice visually and was not difficult to install.  That said, the outer bar is not as solid as it ideally would be.
