These blinds seem to work well mechanically, and the plastic bead chain seems pretty strong and will probably last. I was a little disappointed on not understanding the locking mechanism on the bottom of the chain that it must be installed under detention or it will not work at all. But if you install it right, it seems like it’s pretty good. I did a 3 inch lap over my windows, but I still get some light coming through. I suppose that is because the design keeps the blind away from the window at least a half an inch and naturally light can bounce out into the room. Maybe they could come up with some kind of an edge strip to prevent that. But overall, I’m pretty happy.
