  I needed a quick order for a single roller shade with a chain clutch and valance cover for a commercial customer. I really liked the product and its quality along with a great price after the discount offered. I will order from Blindster again. Thanks, Dennis at Affordable Decor

• Fantastic

  Great measuring instructions. Great fit. Easily installed. Quality material and manufacture. Should have used Blindster much earlier.

• Measuring instructions are confusing. Wrong size delivered.

  Don't be confused by the long, over-explained instructions. Give them the EXACT size you want tip to tip. Ignore the fabric size qualifications identifying how the fabric will be smaller by 7/8 to 1 3/8". NOTE: Blindster is NOT the manufacturer. They are just an online retailer/middleman. The blinds come from a manufacturer in Florida.

  Response from Blindster

  I'm sorry you had a problem with our instructions. Roller shades are our trickiest product for measuring. I can't agree with your statement to ignore the fabric deductions. You have to take into consideration the tip to tip measurement (at the top which is the widest part of the roller shade) because you need room to mount the shades on an outside mount and you have to make sure they will go inside the window opening for an inside mount. The fabric deduction is important as well. With an outside mount you want to make sure that the fabric covers the window. For an inside mount, we are just making sure that you know there will be larger gaps (larger than any other window covering) on the side of the shade when compared to other blinds/shades. There are very few (if any) retailers of window coverings on the internet (or via other channels like big box stores, distributors, etc.) that actually make their own blinds/shades. Thank you for your review.

• I like what we have, but...

  We found it difficult to shop online. And it took longer than the promised time. Good prices.

• Not what I thought that I ordered.

  I got samples, and really thought about what I needed. I picked the sample and ordered. I must have picked the wrong thing and it ended up being no where near the sample. I got a blue charcoal, not the black charcoal, and when pulled down it is not a true blackout, but I get a purple glow. Order shipped fast, was packaged well.

• Order was shipped Wrong

  Three E-mails and no answer from customer service ! My order was for deluxe room darkening shades. I did not get room darkening. Materials and hardware seem to be of excellent quality but the wrong material. Waiting to hear from customer service!!!!!!!!!!

• Upset with my NOT room darkening shades

  I was very upset when i hung these shades up. They do not darken the room at all!! I called customer service about this and was told i could return them with a handling fee and i have to pay the return costs. I shipped them back today for refund but am extremely upset that you call them darkening and they do NOT darken. I now am out $25 to mail them back and the $5.95 handling fee for No reason!!

  Response from Blindster

  I'm sorry that you weren't happy with your shades. Room Darkening is a term that is typically used for fabrics that block between 90% & 98% of the light. Lighter colors will definitely let in more light. This differentiates from the term Light Filtering which can be anything from sheer to blocking 95% of the light. I will call you to if we can get you a new product to replace these shades at a discount to cover the cost of returning these shades.

• Roller blind

  Very disappointed in the quality of the blind, within 2 days it broke. Customer service was quick and no questions asked when we asked for full refund.

• Pleasantly Surprised

  We love the shades, color, fabric. They were easy to install. Only issue we had was we waited over 4 weeks to get them. But once they arrived, we were very happy with them.

• Does its job.

  I am not the best handy person, but it was installed easy enough and works alright.

• Had a problem.

  I received my shades and was very satisfied with the appearance, but once installed one of them was very noisy when raising or lowering. I contacted customer service and talked to Sara, she immediately got to work on correcting my problem and I had a replacement within two weeks. I will definitely buy from Blindster again, and I recommend them. Dave M.
