Great product
Several things make this product great for us. First, the two blinds are precisely cut to fit our window (it is a wide window and requires two separate blinds). Second, it is easy to install. Third, the cod adjustment strings look nice. Finally, the blinds do not block views.

Looks Lux!
I couldn't wait for these blinds to arrive. I am currently renting an apartment and these blinds definitely added some warmth to my home. The blinds were super easy to hang. I loved them so much I bought ones for my patio door. The landlord appreciated that I added value to the apartment without spending a lot of money. I would recommend these blinds to anyone!

Beautiful but some were damaged
I love these blinds. However, I twice had to return a 70" x 72" espresso blind due to them being damaged. This apparently occurred in manufacturing as the last time they were sent with extra packaging and still were damaged. I can live with it but not what I would expect.

    Nice blinds
    The cats find these more difficult to break. These were relatively easy to install. Having all the jardware at hand made it easier, I measured twice and predrilled the mounting holes. Two blinds side-by-side were just smaller than the opening, so the included valence strips almost didn't fit. Cool trick: I only installed the outside ends and glued the inside ends together, making an almost seamless joint. Pretty clever, I think.

    If your window faces the sun, these are useless junk (Photos attached to review), I really wish I had read the reviews!
    Once again I made a purchase without reading the reviews online, and once again I realize I was sold a pile of cheap Chinese junk. Just like other reviewers, mine are warping beyond belief. Don't waste your money!!! The overview of this product says and I quote "Best of all, the Premium Faux Wood Blind is moisture and heat resistant, making it ideal for any room in your home". I hate to be repetitive but as I said in the title, If your window faces the sun, these are useless junk. I purchased one of these 52" (plus three of the 36") for a master bedroom and bath remodel project. Unfortunately I did not get them installed before the 90 day return period. Less than two weeks since the install and the top half of one of the 36" is ridiculously warped (SEE: Photos), a second is starting to warp, the 52" installed on a shaded side of the house is ok so far, and the last (for my bath which also faces the sun) I still have not installed and probably will just throw in the garbage. Seriously, these are absolute junk, and because I'm beyond 90 days of purchase I have very little hope of return. Realistically, I can't in good conscience even consider donating this last brand new blind to Habitat for humanity.

    Attractive, easy to install.
    The blinds, hardware and instructions are complete and easy to follow. The 2 1/2" blinds are a better option than the 2" blinds because they look and perform better overall.

    Great Value!!
    I choose these blinds for our new house since I needed to install window treatments on 20 windows. Wanted something that was easy to install, offer privacy and light control and was cost effective. These met the bill. Extremely easy to install. Windows from 10" to 70" and I was able install all myself with easy. I purchased standard sizes from my local store and ordered the others on hd.com. Would recommend and purchase them again.

    Extremely Satisfied
    I purchased this blind for my office, which I was giving a makeover after our daughter left for college. I wanted something that could reduce the morning glare on my computer screen and yet still look great in the window. I am very satisfied with this purchase. The Espresso color has a dark-wood (without the grain) look to it and accents my office quite well. The product has that custom wood blind feel, without the cost. Extremely durable blind. The blind blocks out sunlight extremely well. The installation was very easy and straightforward. As with all window products, I found the screws to be somewhat lacking in length and grip. For my installation, I mounted the blind inside the window-box (outside and above the window is also an installation option, the brackets work for both) and used long wood screws (~3") to grab into the header. This blind is quite heavy and is of solid construction, so I wanted to ensure the mount was more than adequate. Once the brackets were installed, it was a simple matter of lifting the blind into place and locking the brackets down. The valence is very easy to install and looks great. There is no sagging in the blind, whatsoever. Depending on the size of your window, this can be a one person job. My window is 72" wide and I was able to install this solo. I recommend measuring three separate times prior to ordering, just to ensure you get it right. If anything, lean towards being a little small on the measurement instead of too long. The brackets allow for a little play between them and the ends of the blind (~1/4"-1/2"). The cut from the factory was spot on, square, with no noticeable marring of the blind. I was so impressed with this blind that I purchased another one for my wife's office. And we intend on buying these blinds for the remaining windows throughout the house. I highly recommend this product.

    Warped Within a few days in October!
    I'm completely redoing my bathroom with Home Depot products and purchased these for our bathroom window in size 42 x 64 on October 1st. I put them up October 7th and three days later, I noticed several of the slats were warped in the shape of a pregnant belly. It was as if someone was pushing part of the slats out toward the room. Look at the photos. I took them back without hassle, but these have one job - to hang in a window to block light. I don't think they were warped when I hung them because I would have noticed. They replaced cheap plastic miniblinds so if anything would warp, I would think it would be the cheapy ones - not these which cost $51.00. I now have a temporary blind up while I decide what to put there. I'm thinking top down bottom up roman. The lady at Home Depot wanted me to try again with another of the same blind but it is probably from the same lot so I didn't try. I loved these so I am really disappointed!

    Easy to install and great looking!
    I purchased these blinds for the kitchen and two bedrooms in our new home. They have been easy to install and the look is so high-end that I'm glad I splurged on these. Totally worth the cost. I mounted on the outside of the window because I did not have the depth needed to mount inside and the lovely crown molding detail of the valance looks great. Now I don't need curtains!

    Nice, clean and easy to install
    Needed a blind for our newly finished basement bedroom. This was a perfect fit and easy for me (62 yo female) to install. The adjusters are OK , but would have preferred the wand because it wouldn't bang on the window with the blinds up. Overall, it works for what I needed.

    Warped in heat after one day's use
    I mistakenly put this review under the real wood version of these blinds. My mistake. Fairly easy to install and my wife and I both liked the dark color. All mechanical parts worked nicely, the fit was great, and they blocked light very well. However........I installed them on a Saturday evening and when I opened them on Sunday morning, each one of the slats looked like a frowned face (. They had warped badly. I had not read the reviews beforehand and now that I have, I am surprised to see so many positive reviews and that only a few people have mentioned this issue. When I opened them I could feel that they were very hot. Perhaps it is the intense New Mexico Sun. There is no way that plastic can hold up to this kind of heat. I returned them to the store for the natural wood ones. Of course, my store only had one of those in stock. What pain. At least I have all the holes drilled already.

    Great blinds.
    Affordable custom blinds for awkward windows that installed easily and look nice. I've ordered from affordable "blinds" websites in the past but they couldn't meet my needs for this size of window and had to order from here. I was pleasantly surprised! They are perfect and if I need to order blinds again it will be from here. Nice product and shipped quickly!

    Great product for the price.
    These blinds were easy to install. The connector on the right string comes off too easily but can be reattached. We installed them to the inside of the windows so I'm not sure what they would look like installed on the outside. Very happy with our purchase.

    Very nice and a good price.
    The blinds went up easily. My mom loves them.They keep the hot afternoon sun out of the kitchen just like my mom has needed for years. They are a little too heavy for her to lift with the cord, but they are 72" wide and about 60" long. She was more concerned about the cord breaking with all the weight. I told her it would be fine, She just opens and closes them rather then lifting them. We are all very happy she has what she needs and likes it. Everyone should take good care of their mom!

    Great blinds!
    Thes are super easy to install, I do recommend putting the valance clips on prior to clipping in the blinds because it is hard to get them on once they are up in the window.. and then clipping on the actual valance after installed. Overall love them and super easy to work with

    Great Blinds!
    These were a replacement from one inch aluminum blinds that came with the house when I bought. So far, I've installed these in three rooms in my house. One set in my home office and two sets in my living room. I've also installed the non-premium blinds in my guest room and you can definitely see the quality difference between the two (might upgrade the bedroom blinds). I do love the look of these blinds. They really brighten up the entire space and look much more expensive then they are. Blinds are extremely easy to install, I installed all three sets by myself. Would recommend to anyone who wants an economical upgrade.

    Custom sizing, high quality material, and ease of installation.
    We loved the look of wide, horizontal blinds and color. Only a few common sizes in store but can be ordered to fit your opening up to 1/2" increments. Very easy to install.

    Great blinds for a great price
    Blinds were easy to install. Pleasantly surprised with the valance type edging that hides the hardware. Love that they match the custom shutters in our home. Would definitely buy these again. Only disappointed that one box of the 4 shutters ordered was damaged during shipping. Valance hardware and facade were warped. Luckily, this set was used in an area of our home that did not need the valance.
