Customer Reviews for Coolaroo Pewter Cordless UV Blocking Fade Resistant Fabric Exterior Roller Shade 120 in. W x 72 in. L

Purchased and installed the Coolaroo sunshade yesterday. This product is better than advertised. While it is large (at least the 120 inch), the installation is a breeze. You screw in the rod holders and then just snap it into place. On back to back days in Oklahoma it has been hot, and our backyard faces the west. The sunshade reduced the temperature on our porch at least ten degrees! Listen, stop overthinking, and buy this product!

This shade is everything !! Blocks the sun , wind & neighbors too ! Haha. We just love it !

I have had the shade for about two weeks now, works like it supposed to, I like the crank for raising and lowering it. Yes I would recommend this shade.

The Coolaroo shades are the perfect accessory for our new deck and pergola. Easy to mount and excellent quality.

I bought 2 of these for my outdoor screened in patio. They are very nice. The only issue I have, is they are hung up high to block the sun, and the handle isnt long enough. I need a step stool each time to open and lower. Since the handle has to be raised to make it a crank, you lose 3" also, so its even shorter. Other than that, they are nice, and block the sun.

Its great for off the shelf. Seems to be well made. Time will tell.

I purchased 2 of these shades to install under our new deck. They complement the deck color perfectly and allow us to see through them while still blocking out the sun. They definitely cool down our patio. I also love the straps at the bottom that keep the shades from flying around in the wind.

I love these shades. Well-made and easy to install. Lightweight design. I purchased 2 shades. My only issue is the price and I opted for free shipping which took 19 days. They apparently came from the Coolaroo factory in California.

Purchased for my back patio. Looks and works great!

We ordered three of the Coolaroo Montecito cordless shades for our west-facing covered deck off our kitchen. We've had them for a few weeks & I'm pleasantly surprised. Installation was very straight forward and didn't take much time at all. They feel solidly built, are easy to operate, and have made such a huge difference for both our deck and our kitchen. Great value & would purchase again.

Ordered online for an in-store Pick Up last Friday afternoon. St Mathews store had it ready in an hour and the pick up was easy. Saturday morning install took more time gathering up the tools and ladder than it did to measure, then drive 8 screws into the brackets & hold-down bungies. Easy Peasy!

The early morning sun heats our eastern windows up to 130°, with the Coolaroo shades the same windows heat up to 90°. This drop of 40° keeps our home cooler for a longer period of time and reduces our AC loads.

I installed the Coolaroo shades on almost every window outside my house, the extra layer helps lower the heat coming through window, the blinds and curtains do the rest. I installed shade on my Master bedroom 2 years ago, hasn't fallen once, shade is up 365 days a year, a few shades stay covering windows when others do not. To the people who cannot install the shade properly, then shade falls down after installation, not the shade engineering. You don't understand the big picture. Not the shade, it's the installer who cannot understand basic directions to install the shade properly. Shade should be tight (meaning not much of a gap or none at all) on both ends after install or shade may fall. More than one way to install, try installing shade bracket on one side, then with the help of another or install solo like me. Hold Shade up in the proper position, then mark holes with a pencil mark for next bracket install ensuring shade roll is right up against each bracket, then completed, enjoy. The people who complain about the shade is difficult to roll up, either installed the shade incorrectly or installer should work on building arm strength.

The perfect fit for what we were looking for: good quality and color selection at an affordable price. Pretty easy to install, even on my aluminum roof beams. Plenty of shade with the 95 percent option, while still able to see rough outlines in the distance. Order arrived quickly and we’ll packaged. Hoping these last as long as my neighbor’s Coolaroos (9 years and going strong.) Overall, extremely satisfied!!

Easy to install and works great. We have intense afternoon sun and this helps a lot.

I am very pleased with this shade. I purchased three for my front porch to block the blinding morning sun, and to give privacy from my neighbors. It transformed my porch area, instead of avoiding it, We flock to it now! As long to read the directions, it's not difficult to install. And winding it up and down is easy. But here's a tip, make the handle into lazy shape and it cranks quickly and easily! Enjoy and good luck

Love my Coolaroo!! Quality product, looks so clean

Do not buy this shade. The parts are made of plastic and the sun destroys them, pretty much as soon as the one-year warranty expires the parts disintegrate and render the unit useless. Unless you want to buy new hardware every year for the rest of your life, don't buy this junk.

very nice keeps the patio cool. i had to add a support in the middle as i felt the rod was buckling with some wind forces. we will see how long it will last i hope long time.

These shades really complement my new patio cover. They are both functional and pleasing to the eye.

i bought two shades. 120" and 96". They were perfect for my application. Now I can use my outdoor kitchen without cooking myself in the afternoon sun. I hope they last a long time.

Included hardware is for wood. I installed on aluminum and required four suitable screws, lock washers and flat washers. I used some fine-thread screws that cut their own threads (sort of) after drilling a 1/8 inch pilot hole.

Luv these so much added them to both houses. One Gazebo is 12x10 & the other 12x14

Purchased product for my pergola and was plesently surprised with the quality and ease of installation. It was exactly what I was looking for at a reasonable price. Highly reccomend this product.

These shades are very easy to install. They keep the summer sun off of the side of the house and really cool the place down, I should’ve bought these sooner! The detachable cordless wand you use to roll the shade up and down is pretty nice, too

This shade reduces direct sun exposure while still allowing me to see out of my living room picture window. It is tall enough to completely cover the wall, which is west-facing and made of brick. I’ve only had it up for about 2 weeks so I can’t speak yet as to how it holds up over time. Since I bought a shade wider than my actual window in order to cover up as much of the surrounding brick as possible, and the brick comes out about 4 inches below the window frame, we had to install 2 x 4’s below the eaves to mount the shade so that it wouldn’t rest against the wall. An extra step but not too hard.

I’m a 57 year old female who is somewhat handy. Followed the directions and came out with a very nice looking front porch with shade and privacy. This was a great purchase. I highly recommend. This is a step up from the basic Coolaroo shade and I’m glad I bought this one.

Works great, looks great, so glad we got it.

Luv luv luv this shade! Get a lot of compliments from guests & family members of how it gives you privacy, filter the harmful rays of the sun & lowers the outdoor temperature. It also acts as a barrier so that my patio furnitures aren’t exposed to extreme weather elements like rain, wind & heat. Saves my patio furniture from fading & getting worn out quickly. Have recommended this to everyone! Great product indeed. I’m looking of getting another one to add more to my patio area. Got these over 2 years ago & still a very satisfied customer to date.
