  Hi Peg, thank you for your feedback! We’re happy to hear that the shade fits and operates as expected, but we’re sorry to hear that you’re disappointed with the color. The way the fabric looks can be affected by sunlight as it filters through the material, which may change its appearance. A member of our customer service team will reach out to you directly to assist you further.

  Thank you for your review, Sarah! We're sorry to hear about the gap with your roller shades. If possible, mounting the shades from the side may be a better option. If you need assistance, feel free to reach out!

• In a word ... worthless

  None of the roller shades ordered have ever gone up that well. Now one just stopped rolling up all together. I loved the price and reviews. Even had a friend refer me. Guess I got the bad batch

• You get what you pay for

  The fabric looks fine from a distance but it feels very cheap (because it was very cheap). The fabric has some creases and does not hang tight at the bottom.

• Online photo/description doesn't match reality

  Not worth the deep discount. Poorly manufactured for the money.

• Subpar, go with the faux wood blinds instead

  I purchased these and was very excited to install them in my new apartment. The previous apartment I lived in came with light filtering roller shades and I was extremely happy with them. Naturally I wanted something similar for my new place. Never having purchased shades before I took advantage of a promotion that was going on and felt I was getting a pretty decent deal compared to local companies/installers who had quoted me. Of course I wasn't expecting the king of shades, but something decent for sure. Overall the install of these was quite simple - but unfortunately as the ceiling is not perfectly level in my apt, there was an uneven gap between both of my shades when they were both down. I tried my best to adjust them by lowered one side - the hardware basically now hangs from your ceiling rather than being fastened properly making it looks pretty rickety. It's thankfully not visible from far away but hope it stays put in the long run. In terms of material, I surprised that there is absolutely no opacity to them, more of a black out than light filtering really. Not really what I was looking for, but I guess I made the mistake of not ordering a free sample. For the rest of the apt, I purchased faux wood blinds, but now wish I had for my living room as well, as they can be easily adjusted and didn't give me any problems despite uneven ceilings in the bedrooms as well. My advice, if you're deciding between the two, think twice and make the investment and go with the wood blinds!

• New blinds

  Wrong color hardware sent with blinds. Some were not cut right - too long. Slow response time to correct issues. Overall disappointing experience.

• Cheap Quality, high price

  For the price, I expected much more. I could have got them locally for less & quicker.

• Polyester Roller Shade- Paper Roller Shade?

  Let me start by saying for the price (since I got them during a 40% off sale) was on par for the quality. If I had paid full price I would be disappointed to the point of returning them. The roller feature is cheap plastic that feels like it rolls with some parts of each turn being tight and others being lose. The shade itself appears to just be painted fabric, really thin fabric. I was hoping the fabric would actually be gray, not painted gray. Overall, I would not order these again.

  Response from Blindster

  I'm sorry you aren't happy with the shades. I will call you to get this resolved.
