The other reviewers are right on the money when they say this product is flimsy. After I finally managed to tie the thin threads (which you have to cut yourself), I bent the rods when trying to secure them in the tiny little holes in the plastic hubs. Finally got those rods straightened only to have them fall out when the most gentle touch was applied. I gave up at this point and put this tangled mess away for a time when I have some more patience. Only buy this if you have the time and presence of mind to muddle with the unforgiving materials. There has to be a better way!
