New Add On Shower for Clawfoot Tub includes Rectangular Shower Rod

I was looking for a shower for my old tub. It's not a claw foot tub but it is the original cast iron tub in my circa 1930's home. I ordered it because it was one of the cheapest -my first mistake. I ordered it despite the reviews stating that others buyers had issues with stripped heads -my second mistake.

I took an afternoon to install it. The faucet was great. It installed very easily and works well. The installation of the faucet took about forty-five minutes. The shower riser took quite a bit longer because I was unable to get it installed to my satisfaction. It is very poor quality product. The shower rod is the same. Every single screw stripped. The shower riser constantly leaked. I even bought extra teflon tape because I didn't know that kit came with it and that did nothing. I think that there's a flaw in the riser and the threads are leaking because they're misaligned but I can't say for certain because I got so frustrated that I just gave up and took the riser and shower rod apart and put them away.The shower rod did not fit inside of the holder that went on the top part of the riser. It was also very poor quality metal.

I may attempt it another time but the shower rod is not usable. It's garbage and I'm frustrated with the waste of money. I also now have holes in my walls and ceiling that need to be patched because of my failed installation of the shower rod and riser. I did need the new faucet and I'm happy with that but I probably could have gotten the same quality faucet for a quarter of the price or an fancy faucet for the same price that I paid for the entire kit. All in all I would not recommend this product. It's probably one of those times where you need to go to the home improvement store and get your hands on it before you make the decision to buy so that you ultimately know exactly what you're getting.

We needed something fast and inexpensive as we bought a house and had to have a shower for a claw foot tub. It went up pretty easily and is still going great after over 2 months and five people using it daily(if not more than once a day)!

This product seemed to be the ideal solution for my situation. It was cheap, seemed good quaility and easy to install. The divertor valve in my opinion was good value. My gripe about this product is that the designers expect the shower hoop to stay up with just a "set scew" on the vertical support. There is no way that it could ever handle the load of a curtain and its own weight. When i attempted to tighten the set screw it stripped. I had to modify it and drill a hole all the way through the vertical support and use a nut and bolt. If i hadn't done this it would have fell off the ceiling. Once i did this, it worked out great!

For the price it is a decent buy. The stand was a little shorter than we expected so we ended up putting the circular rod at the very tip top as far as it would go. It was right under the shower head which looked a little funny. For leaking, instead of using teflon tape which just gets torn up by the pipe thread, try using Rectors Seal Pipe Sealant. It works great, no leaks!
