Probably my fault. The edges are not quite as dark as I would like.

Response from Blindster

Sales Rep Advised me incorrectly.
I was unable to install with a friend. So I need to wait until my husband goes to the house. HOWEVER very disappointed. They offered reverse roll. I did not know what that meant. I asked if that meant that the shade would lie closer to the window. Sales person said yes. It is quite the opposite. The fee was not much, but really bummed that it is not what I wanted.

This is the 2nd time
This is the 2nd time I bought this shade. It not 100 % blackout. Installation was not bad but the instructions are vague in many steps. I still buy the the product because it better then most window coverings.

Satisfied
Overall I like the product, but the installation was not that easy due to the size of the big window, I think. There are a few sun cracks showing around the shade when it is sunny, which I don't know how to adjust, but it is not a problem overall.

Our third order from Blindster
Our third order from Blindster (and we plan to order more as we replace those dusty old plantation blinds). They install easily, work nicely, look great. My only reason for a 4-star rating on this order -- as I was installing one of the shades, the shade fell out of the cassette into my hands, and despite the clear directions, it was a devil to re-mount inside the cassette now firmly mounted inside the window frame (and the angle I had to work with was awkward). I figure this was a one-off since it had never happened before (and we've purchased six shades from them).
Response from Blindster

Blackout
The quality of the actual shade seems great. Light seeps in along the edges and a lot above the top.
