If you have replacement windows like I do, these blinds probably will not fit inside of the window frame for mounting. I only have 3/4 depth to mount blinds. The descriptions on overstock did not give enough detail in order for me to determine if this blind would fit so I ordered 1 to see, so I must return it. Further, I did not like the color of the blind which is a very yellow ivory and not the slightly off-white that I am looking for, and I thought the blind looked inexpensive in general.
First off, these are FILTERING shades not blocking or black-out shades, exactly what I was looking for. They are great for controlling the amount of bright southern California sun, which can damage the furniture that I brought from Paris (France, not Texas or Kentucky) where I lived for the past 20 years. They also provide excellent insulation in the evening and at night, which can be quite cool in San Diego. Plus you certainly can't beat the price and the fast delivery, if the size you're looking forward is available. All in all, an excellent product considering the "quality/price index", as the French would say. As for those who have found the actual ivory color 'darker' than what they saw at this website, may I humbly suggest that it is probably a function of the color setting on your computer screen/monitor rather than misrepresentation at this website. I haven't used a Windows PC for a long time, but on any Mac one can adjust the monitor color setting under Preferences to one's liking. And if I select a setting that's 'native' to my monitor, then the color at this website matches the actual color exactly. Perhaps PC users could also try to choose the correct color setting for their monitor, in order to see the color that was intended to show here? Just my 2 cents...
The blinds themselves seem well made and I like the way they function. However, the color was darker than expected - like the color of "old ivory" - and when the top and bottom are both down, the blind is fairly dark the nearer you see the bottom of the shade. Like a gradient. Also, our blinds are not even across the top, but bow slightly upward. Also - perhaps because they are ivory and not white - they are more light blocking than expected. We are going to give it a few days and then decide whether to return them or not. I would recommend the white to anyone not sure about the color.
We are in a rental house built in 1928. It is a beautiful home made when standards for craftsmanship was always excellent. I did 8 windows in these shades and you would have thought I spent 4 times more money on them.....they look that good. The quality is really good except the "top down" mechanism on a couple of the shades either 1) didn't work at all or 2) doesn't lock into position most of the time but can be manuevered to do so. Small potatoes considering the finished look and quality for the small price.
