• Disappointed in look..

  The blinds fit great, and the cordless option works excellent! My disappointment comes from the look of the "Hatteras Camel" color choice I chose .. the sample shown in the ad/build example does not match what I received. The sample has much more dark "black" spots/areas than the ones I received.

  Hi Victoria, thank you for your order and for sharing your feedback! We’re sorry to hear you’re disappointed with the Hatteras Camel color. Since bamboo is a natural material, there can be variations in color and texture, so the finished shade may not always be an exact match to the sample or images shown on our website. If you feel another color may work better for your space, and you’re still within 60 days of receiving your order, please reach out to us at [email protected] or 1-888-256-8672, Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–5 p.m. CST. We’d be happy to help you explore your options.

• The hardware is horrible!!

  We ordered the bamboo Roman blinds for all of our windows in our house. We were so excited to put them up. The very first one we attempted to install the screw broke in half with half of it stuck in the wood! We attempted a second screw and it did it again!! We ended up buying all new screws for all the blinds. Very disappointed in the hardware. The blinds are beautiful though!

• They look nice but they don’t do anything as far as blocking light or providing privacy.

  The quality is pretty nice other than these value blinds do nothing except look nice. They provide no privacy or blocking of light that comes the light he window.

  Hi Joseph, thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you like the look and quality of the shades, and we understand they don’t provide full privacy or block all light due to the construction of the bamboo material. We’ll be reaching out separately with some solutions that might work better for your needs.

  Hello Cathy, I am so sorry to hear that this shade did not give you the privacy you were looking for. Due to their natural construction, our Super Value Cordless Bamboo Woven Wood Shades are going to provide limited privacy. We do offer a category called Deluxe Bamboo Woven Wood Shades and these fabrics do have the option for a liner to be added on to the back of the shade for better light control and privacy. We will send you a separate email so that we can look over your options together and get you taken care of, we want to ensure you are satisfied.

• Color so wrong

  I ordered a bamboo shade Hatteras Cocoa color. The write up says it is natural so the color may not match but what I received is very dark brown absolutely nothing like the picture. Also, there is very little variation in the color, it is brown with raised spots that were roughly ground down. Not at all what I thought I was getting. Looks well made, wish they were the color displayed or even close to it.

  Hello Linda, we are going to send you a separate email so that we can get you taken care of at once. I am so sorry to hear that this shade is not what you expected. Samples are available for our products to take a look at prior to ordering since computer monitor settings can make it hard sometimes to give an accurate read of the color. We do want you to be satisfied with your order and have a Satisfaction Guarantee policy that is available to you. We will send you the details. I apologize again for this inconvenience.

• Completely see-through

  These shades look nice and operate smoothly. The problem is, at least in the light color I ordered, they are completely see through and provide no privacy at all. I think that should be provided in the description. Looking in from outside at night is like looking through a normal window screen. If some light filtering is your only concern, they should be ok.

  Response from Blindster

  Hello Joe, thank you for your review! We are so sorry that you are not completely satisfied with your order. We do list in our product details that this product offers light-filtering fabrics that provide limited privacy. I am going to send you a separate email so that we can go over your options for this order and get you taken care of. Your satisfaction is important to us!

• The blinds fit perfectly. They

  The blinds fit perfectly. They are well made and look great. The only reason I gave only 2 stars is because they are completely see through. Maybe it says that in the description, I don't remember seeing it. So, I spent close to $300 and still had to buy curtains for privacy.

  Hello Jeanne, we apologize for the disappointment, the Super Value category does not offer a liner option unfortunately. We do want to ensure you are satisfied, so I am going to send you an email with some options so that we can get you taken care of. I apologize again for the frustration.

• Difficult installation

  I like the way these blinds look but the installation was so very difficult. The brackets need to be about 1/16" wider so that you can put screws in behind the bolt that holds the blind. The website should say that it takes two people to actually install the blind because it's nearly impossible to hold the blind up and screws in the thumbscrew at the same time.

  Response from Blindster

  Hello Elizabeth, thank you so much for your review and I'm so glad to hear you like the blinds. I'm so sorry installation didn't go how you had hoped but I'm happy you were able to get them up. We do offer an installation video of how to install our products, if the shades are very wide it may be necessary for 2 people to assist. I have pasted a link showing the installation process: https://youtu.be/UV2Lo1JqdvE We really appreciate your feedback on this, thank you for shopping with Blindster.com!

• So sad I did not order a sample or read every review

  I like everything about the product except it does not solve my issue. I needed a blind that would block the afternoon sun and one that would provide some nighttime privacy. All 11 blinds are just useless on their own.

  Response from Blindster

  Hi Jacqueline, I am so very sorry about the issue you are having with your bamboo shades. I have emailed you regarding this issue so we can ensure you are fully satisfied. We appreciate you choosing Blindster.
