I'll try and make this quick...I purchased my fathers house while he moved up north. In the office...the sun came in so bright that he actually had aluminium foil on the window and then a cheap blind in front of it to keep the sun out. I wanted to be able to use the window when the sun was not blazing though....and this blind turned out to be absolutely perfect. I have some so called "Black out" curtains in my bedroom that do NOT blackout the sun. This blind does. I really like this blind. You simply use your hand to lightly lift up on the blind to raise it...and lower it. Doesn't take much pressure...doesn't make much of a sound. Super super easy to install. No taxes...shipping was quick...and right to my door. Perfect. Couldn't hardly ask for more.
no problems installing them. total blackout. easy enough for kids to pull down and push up on their own. Only need sheers no bulky drapes for the bedrooms.
I ordered two of these for a toddler's bedroom plus another for a guest bedroom.I have used actual "blackout" curtains in the past and although these are definitely not "blackout" by definition, they significantly darken the room and are much better than a previous set of non-blackout cellular shades I had purchased. The color is really not a bright white. Instead it is at the cool end of the white spectrum and appears almost silver or gray. I did not find this to be a problem because I am not using bright white in the drapery panels flanking these windows and the walls are a cool shade of a pale sage greenish-gray color so they go very nicely. The plastic handle that comes with these cheapens the overall look, but it is of course optional to install since you can raise or lower them just by gently pushing or pulling on the base. These were extremely easy to install and the price was great! I am ordering another one for a bathroom.
Compare the price of these blinds to anywhere else and you'll see the great value. These are well built blinds, although somewhat delicate just by their nature. If you have the choice of buying the size that's right at your window width or one quarter inch under, definitely go under. I bought the same size as my window and had a little trouble fitting it in place. Had to take off the end trim-caps to gain just enough room to let the blind move freely.
Nice shades, as advertised, no complaints. EXCEPT for the size. The description doesn't warn you that they don't take off the usual 1/8th inch from your measurements like most other blinds/shades retailers. Thankfully, my windows are old and not a true 36 inches and I was able to take the end caps off of the blinds to get them to fit.
Great shades.. very clean and classy. will definetly order more. no need for curtains
was so very glad I found these to buy they do exactly what I wanted which was block out the sun during the summer when the sun goes down later and later. I wish I could come up with the words but these are honestly the best shades for the money
I bought these blinds for a sunroom and they do the job of blocking most of the harsh sunlight. They were easy to install and light weight compared to others I have purchased elsewhere. For my application, the color was not an issue since the walls are grey with white trim. I saw that this was mentioned in another review and that was helpful in my decision to purchase.
