You ALMOST get what you pay for on this one ...
Purchased for a rental situation. End of top rail was bent slightly (in area that doesn't show so straightened it which marred paint a little). THESE ARE NOT ROOM DARKENING as stated (see pic. this was taken on an east wall at 4:40 PM with sun on other side of house). As noted in another review, the packaging is pretty poor. NOTE: NO VALANCE (COVER) FOR TOP RAIL AREA. Description notes "decorative" but all that entails is end caps for the top & bottom rails. Flimsy ... very flimsy. Heads twisted off of two of supplied screws while installing (cheap chinese craaap). Pilot holes recommended. I had spare screws but had to relo the two mounting clips as a result. Instructions lack detail for someone installing for 1st time (hung a lot of these so no prob here). Value (imo): $23-$24. Good for prep when selling a home. Doubt they will hold up well. Better packaging to avoid damage and quicker shipping would improve vendor's performance. Better made shade with a decorative valance and good hardware would make it worth the $30. (we bought 16 of the 2" faux wood shades for our permanent residence from HD, and they are recommended.)

    DO NOT PURCHASE
    I was slightly leery purchasing this online, but figured that if Home Depot sold it, it must be up to standards. These are cut to size, and would you believe that mine was so poorly cut that the bottom part is 1/2 an inch less than the top part. It looks absolutely horrible.

    Do not buy this product! Wrong design - for inside mount they do not provide sufficient clearance between mounting bracket and the window easement. You will not be able to properly install this product (referring to the step 2 of the installation manual).

      Nice blinds bad cut
      My order was for two 24" wide blindes, one was 3/8" short and the other was 1/4" short. This included the end caps which added about 1/4" to the total width. The blinds are very nice and I do recommend them.

          the only thing worse than these blinds are the liars that have rated this product 5 stars. take $15 and put in in the toilet and flush; yeah you'll be out $15 but you won't be out $15 and have the frustration from waiting for these blinds to arrive, install the hardware and watch them break in front of your eyes. Home Depot should be ashamed of themselves for even selling this awful product.

              Nice Window covering!
              Aluminum mini blinds for my bathroom window, have a nice low gloss. They were a great price. My only complaint would be that the slats cannot be fully reversed for outside light to be directed towards the ceiling. At this price I would buy again.

                  Worst blinds
                  These blinds are very cheaply made. They are flimsy and bend easily. I've bought blinds from discount stores that were better made than these.

                  Metal mini blinds
                  These blinds were cut exactly to the correct measurements. They are of very good quality and I would order them again.

                      These blinds are of very good quality. They were cut to the correct width and were easy to hang. I would definitely buy them again.

                        I ordered these for room darkening blinds. They do not darken the room as well as the light filtering blinds I replaced
