While it's easy to see why these shades were so reasonable (not high quality), they are still a great buy. They are nice looking and easy to use. It would have been nice if the valences were all the same length however.
I bought 6 pair of these to hang in my Florida room. On all 6 pair the pull cords have broken/ripped/pulled away and we hadn't even been adjusting them. We tried re-stringing with heavier twine but that didn't work so now we're faced with having to re-string them with heavy fishing line or wire. They looked nice but they certainly aren't functional at this time.
The blinds were OK. They looked nice, but filtered nothing. I was hoping to replace our ugly roller ones, but these were completely see through once I got them up. At night, forget it, you can't exactly expect any privacy. We sent them back and will try a different one that appears a little thicker.
Purchased these for my living room but worked better for the bedroom being that they were more cherry/walnut colored than pictured (the furniture in our living room is dark espresso). Being that these are now in the bedroom, if you are looking for blinds/shades that filter light, these will not do the job. I will need to look at curtain options to install over these blinds now. Overall, they are nice blinds, just take the above into consideration when deciding what's best for your space.
My husband and I are very happy with this purchase. They were installed easily and quickly. The only thing I wish was different would be that the cords were reversible. We placed two side by side and the cord for the left shade runs between the two shades instead of on the outside.
I am very pleased with the Fiji shades I ordered and the price was unbeatable. One of the two shades, however, had a slight defect (stitching) that does not affect the function. A caution regarding the width being as much as 1" narrower was stated in the description. This should be considered carefully before ordering this product.
I love the shades they look great. Just one shade is a little longer than the other not to much of a bother because my windows are shorter than 72", but if they were longer the shades would look funny.
These shades are made well and are nice looking. I thought they would not be as easy to see through as they are though, so don't buy these if you want privacy or to block out bright sunlight.
We love it! It was true to it's description, and it fit perfectly. I was pleased with the color and the workmanship of the blind. My husband said it was easier to hang than regular mini blinds. We have ordered several products from Overtock.com and have been very pleased with everything.
.. the hard ware provided was very flimsy. If you plan to buy these shades get decent hardware from a good store, particularly screws. No complaints with the actual shades. Easy to install and do look very nice. I'm glad to make this purchase.
