Motorized 100% Blackout Blinds for Windows

The media could not be loaded. Excellent product, well built and compatible with RF universal remote for home automationI was looking for a motorized window treatment capable of covering a big surface. It was really difficult to find because most of the retail stores carry up to 70” window width and compatible with a RF universal remote. I used the BroadLink RMP4 for this purpose (https://amzn.to/3EJbyjl) .I spent few months comparing manufacturers and getting quotations. I ended up going with this manufacturer because the customer service answered all my questions and accommodated all my requests. Given the tailored aspects of the product (product width and length are custom made), it was delivered within 10 days. The process is very simple: once the order is placed, a confirmation email with the entered specifications is reviewed by a customer servie person, then a confirmation email was sent to me. After the conformation, I received a tracking number within a couple of days. The installation was very simple and was able to have the roller blind running within 30 min. The remote control is conveniently pre-programmed by the vendor and easily linked with BroadLink RMP4 (https://amzn.to/3EJbyjl) for home automation. The motor is low noise. Very satisfying experience so far and excellent customer service. Might return for more

UPDATE after 3.5 years of daily use: Still going strong. The sound it makes rolling up is louder than going down, and it is a little bothersome first thing in the morning, but is worth it. I use it multiple times a day, as this is also my backdrop for conference calls, this way I control the light more precisely. Need to charge it about once a quarter.Original review: Came extremely well packaged wrapped into two layers of strong cardboard. Everything was taped, glued and stapled, all three simultaneously, so no chance for parts to fall out. The material was slightly wrinkled at the bottom, hopefully it will straighten with time, not a big deal for me. Easy to install, the motor is quiet. The remote looks like it was designed by Apple. I like the idea that it has internal batteries and I don't need to run wires to it. Will update the review if something goes wrong with it. Mine is 98 inches wide and moves with ease.

The media could not be loaded. I bought multiple shades. They sent me the first one as a trial run. Once we confirmed that one, they sent the rest. I also had problems with the programming on one of the 5 shades I purchased. The directions for the programming is unintelligible, but they always responded quickly to my questions and helped me ultimately resolve the issue. Even well after I had purchased the units, they continued to always be responsive and helpful. Also, one of the shades had a small piece crack during shipment. They sent me a replacement piece right away and gave me a 15% discount without me asking. Overall, I had a very good experience with the customer service.Install was quick. Programming is confusing as hell at first, but once you do it once, its not too bad. They work like a charm and look great.I'm only taking away a star because the material of the shade itself isn't amazing. Its a bit more on the plastic side than the fabric side. Its not terrible, but would have liked to see the material be of a little bit higher quality.

This motorized 63-inch room darkening roller shade with remote control was delivered undamaged, three days earlier than expected, after meticulous confirmation by the customer service department. Mounting it requires the same attention to detail, because once mounted, the screws become inaccessible to all but a right-angled screwdriver. I had some difficulty interpreting the photos in the installation brochure (ceiling mount) to my wall-mount requirement at first, because there was no parts diagram of how the end pieces fitted into the center tube.Given the length and weight of the blind, and the unavailability of help, I slipped a wire tie over its center (rolled up, of course) and suspended the blind from the central curtain rod bracket. With the motor end in the right side mount, I slid the left mounting clip on, and marked the wall at the other end through the bracket holes, thereby eliminating measurement errors.In retrospect, it would have been far easier (with an outside mount) to order a blind long enough to mount into the center of the studs. As it was, the pilot holes grazed the sides of the studs, which prevented the plastic wall anchors from properly expanding behind the drywall. However, once completed, the whole assembly is solid, the lessons are learned, and the blind works perfectly, reducing the heat, and darkening the room with the touch of a button.The company offers a video for installation, but the offer is currently noted on the brochure, which comes in the box. It would be more timely and useful if on the website, or YouTube. "How To" videos are more useful than sales demos.

Arrived sooner than expected, which was a nice surprise. The shade was easy to install and perfectly blocks the bright afternoon light that was flooding in through our new impact door. It looks pretty good too! We decided to install on upper frame of the door rather than on the door itself to avoid potential damage to the glass within the door since we aren’t sure where the glass ends on the inside.We are very happy with this purchase. When it gets so bright that it casts a glare on our TV, we can tap the remote to have instant darkness. Now we can enjoy the abundance of light when we want to and block it out when we need to.Customer service was excellent. I received multiple communications to confirm the size and provide important information about my order. If you are thinking about splurging on one of these, go for it. You won’t regret it!
