• Dents in large 3 in 1 blind

  I ordered 8 blinds. One was a 3 in one. It arrived with two large dents in it. It was returned and the replacement blind arrived with 1 dent in it. Frustrated, I accepted this because it is hidden behind the valance. The other blinds were fine.

  Response from Blindster

  I'm sorry you had to deal with these issues. Unfortunately, ship damage is one of the biggest challenges for window covering factories. Most window coverings are heavy and all window coverings are oddly shaped compared to other products. Ship damage is especially a possibility when you order blinds at a width wider the 78 inches. I will contact you directly to discuss your options.

• Bad Quality!

  I ordered these for a large kitchen window. The weight of the blinds makes them useless. Also the string that rotates the blinds from open to close does not work...bad quality.

  Response from Blindster

  I'm sorry you are unhappy with your fauxwood blinds. Unfortunately, fauxwood blinds are very heavy (approximately 80% heavier than wood blinds). Therefore, when you order very large blinds, they do not easily lift. Horizontal blinds are really made to be tilted open and closed and only lifted occasionally. Of course, that doesn't help you because your tilt mechanism is not working properly. It is possible that the tilt mechanism came unseated in the headrail (metal piece at the top) and only needs to be snapped back into place. If this doesn't work, we will replace the blind for you. However, before we replace the blind I want to make sure you want another one that large. We could remake this as 2 blinds that are mounted side by side with 1 common headrail instead of making it as a single blind. Also, I didn't mention earlier that we do have a Satisfaction Guarantee policy that would you allow you to return part or all of your order for a total refund of the cost of the blinds/shades you purchased. I will contact you directly to see how you want me to proceed.

• It warps!

  On the contrary to what they said, it warps by the sunlight. It's horrible.

  Response from Blindster

  I'm sorry you had a problem with your blinds. Unfortunately, horizontal blinds of all kinds do warp on rare occasions. The reasons vary but for fauxwood blinds, it is usually a result of an unusual environment or defective slats. All of our fauxwood blind slat material is made with additives that are supposed to prevent warping. But because this is a man-made extruded product it can warp if everything wasn't mixed properly. These blinds are covered by our lifetime warranty. We will be happy to replace them in this product or any other product on our website.

• Always Missing Parts

  Buyer beware as this company always is forgetting important parts for your blinds.

• Open/Shut Terrible quality

  I ordered my blinds two years ago and initially was very happy. Size was perfect - they looked good and I was pleased with pricing. However a few months later, the first one failed to open/close and I had to manually open each slat. Then #2 began to fail. It got progressively worse until it now won't open/close either. I wrote customer service asking for instructions so I could repair the mechanism - no response. I'm sorry I can no longer recommend Blindster.

• Beware

  This was pur second order. First was was great. This one....after four times dealing with them to get our order correct. We still got the wrong stuff. Now we have a basemlent full of their junk. My husband is trying to figure out what he can alter from the junk and try to make our blinds look half way decent.
