This would be great for my broad chested husband. He's a large guy and he is forever complaining (for good reason) that the shower is too small. I'll have to tell him about the curved shower rod. He'll want one! :)

I do love it when hotels have them...especially when they have narrow showers. They are a pretty cool invention. At home I prefer glass doors.

No shower curtains in our house...sliding glass doors are the best because Norman Bates would actually have to open the door to stab me! :) Obviously I shouldn't have watched 'Psycho'!
