  • Clever design appears slightly delicate

    Installation is easy, though estimating exact distance between mounting brackets with outside format invites error. Smooth operation. Tension mechanism appears light weight and I have to wonder how many years it'll last. But the parts fit together just right, so the fabrication is very good and inspires confidence.

  • Happy but installation instructions need some work

    I will say that I love the shades. They appear well constructed and were made to the dimensions I requested. They also look good. I deducted one star only because of the instructions. I found them lacking and not very helpful. I found more help from other's videos on youtube on understanding everything I needed to do. Since you already have a youtube channel, I would suggest that it would be very helpful for many to video installation videos covering all aspects.

  • Sunrise surprise

    Bought for bedroom window facing lake and east sunrise. I can see the lake and landscape but maybe should have done 1 or 3% instead of 5. Will switch to the 1% for the other three east/lakefront facing windows in great room. Need more UV in that room because it heats up fast.

  • Great blinds, price and customer service BUT

    The blinds are great, the price was good and your customer service after I realized I measured wrong was top notch. My issue is with the brackets that come with the blinds. Yes, the left bracket can be mounted easily before the blind end is inserted into it. The right bracket needs to be attached to the blind, swung up, the blind needs to be leveled and then the bracket needs to be screwed on the wall. Only problem there, the blind roll does not give you room to drive the screws in. If your installing a 3' blind you may be able to mount and level the brackets but when your talking 139" like I ordered, it's not going to work. I welded a 4.5" piece of metal to all the brackets, drilled holes and that worked for me. I was able to get the blinds up, leveled and screwed into the wall with ease that way. Something to think about, extending the bracket attachment points.

    Response from Blindster

    I'm sorry you had problems with your installation. It is sometimes difficult to level a roller shade that is 139" wide. We usually recommend that you mark the place where the screws are placed into the bracket with a pencil (while you are leveling the shade. Then you can remove the shade from the bracket, install the bracket and then mount the shade. Thank you for presenting an alternative solution.

  • Solar Shades

    I give the shades 4 stars because our window measured out to be the smallest width they had. The window frame is right around the window so I was nervous about ordering them but it was a great deal and the window measurement matched. When the shades arrived it was an extremely tight fit to hang the shades, but we got them up. They look wonderful and keep out the sun but it is difficult to pull the shade up or down. We are careful and hope that it will wear in time to be able to adjust the shades easier.

  • Nice set of shades

    We ordered 5 sets of solar shades for our new home and they look and work great. Value was good and we loved the customer service: When we realized that one of the measurements was off a bit (the size of the window frame varied on bottom vs top), we called customer service and explained the issue and they re-sent us a new shade free of charge (we only had to pay $15 for delivery), which was excellent! The only thing I would note is, that I rather would like to see Phillips screws delivered with the purchase instead of the slot heads (which make it much harder/impossible to use an automatic screwdriver)

  • Great Value Quality Product

    Have bought aprox 30 of these and have been satisfied with all of them. They install relatively quickly and help to modernize the office as well as brighten it.

  • Solar blinds

    We have these solar blinds on the south side of the house and they are great!!!!!! You can still see outside, but the heat stays outside. Saves a lot on cooling.

  • Beautiful

    Great quality shades to block out the eastern sun from coming in two huge windows at the top of the stairs. They work very well and look great. give a clean, modern look to the area.
