Why is it so hard to install
The holding clips do not provide a secure anchor for the blind, which may not have been installed properly due to buyer (me) incompetence.

The product is truly beautiful! The instructions really need to be more detailed and comprehensive, and instead of illustrations, actual photos of the parts would be more helpful. The parts of the tension device should be identified. I had to use Google and ChatGPT to know where the plunger is and to ensure the accuracy of the instructions.

I ordered 4 no tools cellular shades for a sunroom. Each window was a different size but Blindster instructions for measuring were easy to follow. The shades arrived in about a week and were very easy to install. They fit perfectly! They look great, help to shade the room from the morning to midday sun, but still let in plenty of light. I am very pleased with the product quality, ease of installation, and the entire experience.

Not great
Flimsy, and I'm afraid we'll tear this shade when pulled down too often. Pull down bar is just a piece of wood heat sealed in a pocket - nothing very substantial to grab. We'll be returning it.
Response from Blindster
I'm sorry you think that the shade is flimsy. We have been selling these shades for years with no problems. The fabric is much more substantial than it may appear and the hembar is specifically designed to withhold the pressure. In addition, all of our products are covered by our limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. Of course, you can return the shade under our Satisfaction Guarantee for a full refund.

Installation
My husband installed these, and became quite frustrated when it came to clipping on the valance, since there was no mention beforehand of allowing that extra 1/2" or so for clearance of the valance from the window frame. Of course, the second one went on much smoother due to the experience of the first! Overall, we like them, but not sure we will be ordering the rest we intended anytime soon due to that frustration!

Incorrect sizing received
We ordered five blinds in three different sizes, and only one of the five was the correct size. Two were a quarter inch bigger and two were a half inch smaller than what we ordered. We made it work since we have a new baby coming any day, but they look a little goofy, especially the ones that have a gap in them.

blind and installation
One of the shades was hard to install (the 72 inch), because the brackets clipped on very hard. Also, there was a lot of glue on the header, which I wasn't able to totally remove. I think you need a little less strength on that glue. Also, I had the idea the shade material was more like a sheer material. I was disappointed that it was paper. I hope it lasts well.

Quality Control Needed
There has be more quality control. Shades have what look like pin marks when held up to the light.

Good But Wrinkled
The material has wrinkles which appear to be permanent. Any tips for smoothing the shades?

Vertical Blind Review
My blind is very nice. I had 1 cracked hole at top of vane and asked company to send me a replacement and then sent me 5 vanes and some vane savers to put at top if anymore holes break. They also gave me a discount of 15% because they were running a special after I ordered mine. The only complaint is they should tell you up front that you will be paying shipping on large blinds. I thought the shipping would be free until I placed my order. Also, I suggest they send you a few extra vanes and clip savers in your order in case any are damaged or they break in future. Thank you Blindster.

Good quality
I find they are a bit heavy for one lift as it is a big window-have trouble raising it

Skel
The blinds are very well made. The instructions are useless. When installing them with a valence, it becomes beyond difficult because you are essentially blind drilling into your already measured window frame. The valence should connect with clips or something. I can't remove it without taking down the blind clips. I find that the vertical slats fall out sometimes when I open and close the blinds. Overall pretty decent for the price. They are definitely well made. The valence issue is the only bad thing.

Nice blind; poor chord function
We installed these blinds inside the window frame, and because of the size, we had to order the chord pull. There are two problems with this: 1) They design it with the chord pull on the backside of the blind. It looks cleaner because you don't see the chord. But when we have to lift the blind, we have to first pull out the blind to get to the chord, which can be a pain if you have books and stuff on the window ledge or something in front of the window like a bed frame. 2) Then, when we pull it up, you're supposed to trigger the tension to hold it in place by pulling the chord to the right, but this is mounted right up against our window so we could maximize use of the ledge for books and stuff, and the deep frame makes it impossible to pull the chord to the right to trigger the tension hold because the chord is on the right, so the wall of the window frame prevents us from being able to do so easily. Other than those two things, it's a nice blind.
