I looked for bamboo shades at major department stores and could not find one with the exact measurements that I needed for my kitchen window. Searched on Overstock and found this shade which is exactly what I needed at a much lower price. If you are looking for a shade that is completely room darkening, this is not the shade for you. The light does veer through. I personally am ok with that. Great shade for the price. Would recommend.

Most reviewers said, "Once you get the process down for hanging them, it goes smoothly." I totally agree. I bought four of these. I felt like we were stymied when hanging the first one, but then we had an "aha" moment and got into a groove. Also, other reviewers commented that these were more for decoration than pure light blocking. Again I agree with this. We hung these in our mudroom. They nicely cover up our outdated windows, but you can still pretty much see right through them. I wouldn't use them in a bedroom, so they're fine for our needs. We went an inch down in width for all our windows, I got three 29-inch blinds for our 30-inch windows, and a 33-inch blind for our 34-inch window. We hung them inside the windows. Obviously there's a slight gap between the blinds and the window but that seemed a better alternative to us than hanging them outside the window. Overall, a rather fine putrchase considering the price and that we couldn't find what we wanted made in America.

Although it was a little difficult to install it is a beautiful blind. This blind is NOT a privacy blind...you can see right through it when its bright outside. I will probably be looking into lining them soon.
