Speedy 5 m Bendable Curtain Track for Straight & Bay Window Rail, Enough for 3 Standard Windows, Top or Face Fix All Fixings, White, UKASNHMAKTN8499

Does the job nicely. Installation was relatively straightforward - took me an hour to do a 5 metre run including the fiddly bit with the curtains. Reckon it would take me 30 minutes next time. Just don't overthink it. The diagrams aren't particularly good, so when you are still on the ground, see how the end caps go on, and see how the hooks go on - these really are easier than I thought it would be. Curtains are easy to pull and don't catch - very smooth. Will see how long it lasts.

A simple answer to the problem of the bay window. I looked at a range of, not only expensive but overly complicated and cumbersome rails that I felt were unnecessary. This rail (at jut under £15) seemed too good to be true but I ordered it and two days later it arrived. It was well packed and rolled into a tight coil. Opening it up and stretching it out I left it for an hour or so to allow the coils to even out and then it was easier to form into shape; no need for steam or hair dryers to soften up. Just be careful to do a curved rather than a sever right angled bend if you are fitting to a bay. The material is more like a flexible sturdy nylon than plastic and so feels as if it can do the job of hanging 4 x 170 cm drop curtains across our bay. The brackets (plenty of them to do the job) are so simple they are pure genius as you screw them on first, then clip the rail on to them one by one and they lock the rail in place via a small lever on each bracket; (make sure you fit the rail the right side up as the curtain hooks slide on the upper, slightly angled top). As mine were going into a hardwood batton above the frame, the screws provided were too long so I used slightly shorter ones. There were lots of curtain hooks so no problem there and once up, they look spot on. Having lived in this house for a long time and used various rails over the years, this one is so simple, functional and looks cool. My wife is really pleased with the end result; at the price it's a no brainer.

good product fits the bill. Excellant delvery

Really easy to use worked great , ceiling fixed

As others have said, it is very stiff plastic unlike others I’ve fitted. 30 minutes in a hot bath pouring a hot kettle on top and it was only just malleable. I needed to wind it in a circle in the opposite direction just to get control. So prepare to straighten it out well prior to fitting. Other than that it is a fair priced budget curtain rail which no doubt will do the job nicely.

Really good. Surprisingly easy to install and the quality is good. Curtains move really smooth on the track would highly recommend.

I was a bit skeptical at first about paying only £15 for a curtain track, however, after having been asked to replace an old curtain track in a large Bay Window for a friend, I figured this might be ideal for the fairly lightweight curtains she was going to re-use. I’ve fitted a few curtain tracks in bay windows before though - and as a previous reviewer has accurately commented - the flexibility of the track is key to making the job an easy one. The track for the Bay Window in question here needed to be 4.4 Metres long, so the 5 Metre track I bought needed to be trimmed a little in order to fit the window (but it's very easily cut down with a small hacksaw). As for fitting this kind of thing, as with most things, some previous experience is often useful, but my advice to any newbie DIY-er curtain-track-fitter is certainly to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS, noting especially that the track itself is not symmetrical - it has a top and a bottom. Fix the brackets first (which can be screwed either into the ceiling or into the wall). Curtain fitting is not rocket science but it does require a little know-how as with most things. YouTube can probably offer some guidance too! I fitted mine on my own, but another pair of hands to hold the track up can be useful. Also I think a good tip is to start attaching the track to the brackets (they clip in), not from the middle, but from the Right Hand Side End of the track (if you're Right Handed, and maybe from the Left Hand End if you're Left Handed). This is not a heavy duty curtain track but it's perfect for lightweight to maybe medium-weight curtains, and for the price, I would definitely recommend it for this sort of application. Great value.

It took me 30minutes to drill the holes,align the locking support and screw them for 2rooms 10feet each. The nightmare was straightening the track. I read the reviews so I put them in hot water,weights,knee bending but they are not 100%. I put the tracks on by myself which was challenging. Eventually I just clipped the tracks a couple of places then went back to do the rest. I would suggest two people. As others had highlighted,the plugs are not the best quality so I did buy some high heavy duty ones at the hardware store. Two 5m tracks were enough for 2, 10ft wide rooms,a corner loop for the balcony door and another for the front door. Extra curtain hooks might be needed. The screws are visible because the track is below them,I but my supports upside down to hide them . It looks good so far. Will update once I put the curtains up.
