The first screw's head snapped off. I even pre-drilled holes... can't wait to see what other adventures await me. BTW, who still uses flat head screws?

    First of all when I ordered the product one set was damaged in shipping. When I got home with the other set I realized The Home Depot employee ar my local store had ordered the wrong size on the special order. Then they ordered the wrong size again. Finally the third time I went on the website to make sure the right size would be ordered but the size I needed was showing unavailable. I had to pay extra for a larger size than I needed which costed an extra 10 dollars per set then have it cut to size in the store. When I got to the store to get them cut ans take them home I realize they had been cut to within1/2" of what I needed before they were shipped. Why couldn't they have been cut to the exact size I needed before they were shipped ans saved me 10 dollars per set?!! Then when I got them home I found out that someone in production had gotten lazy putting the blinds together. The individual slats were not even through the loops of string that open and close them they were just sittint on top of the cord loops! I spent 1-2 hours per set of blinds putting the individual slats into the cord loops so they would open and close. I love the look of these blinds now that they are up but a terrible experience overall!

    Purchased this product at my local home depot. Brought it home to install only to have three of the six screws it came with break during instillation even though I already pre drilled the holes and was NOT using a drill to put the screws up. Luckily I have a handy husband so we were able to use our own hardware to get them up. After getting them up and opening the blinds we found that seven slats were missing. I've tried contacting the home depot and have gotten ZERO response. Will not buy these again.

      Easy install unless you need to shorten it and then it a little bit more complicated cutting and tying strings. the string to pull to slant work smooth. The sting to pull to raise and lower not so easy and a little difficult to get level. probably because it is 6 foot wide.

      poor quality
      I wasnt expecting a top end blind for the price I paid for them but I was expecting something better than this. The associate at the local HD told me that shortening the blinds was a bit of a pain, I appreciated the honesty, but being in construction for 40 years I thought how bad could it be. Trust me, it's a pain. My biggest gripe is the warped slats and trim for the headpiece. The "thread" that holds it all together and controls movement looks like it will fall apart after a year or two of sun comingu thru the window. Hopefully it will last that long.

        Beautiful addition to any room.
        Was very excited to get these wood blinds. I was a little skeptical about the quality, but my fears where set aside when I received them. I was replacing some old white faux wood blinds that had seen better days, and cost more than these real wood ones. My hubby put them up in no time at all and they look beautiful. They are also easy to raise and to open (no rod to turn they open with pull cords). The color is warm and looks better that the picture on line. All in all I would recommend these blinds to anyone who want's to add a little class to their home.

        Cheap Appearance
        I purchased the product because the pictures made it look like a quality product that effectively shuttered the window and looked good when mounted inside the frame. What I got were two assemblies that look very little like the sales photo. The valences are warped and do not obscure light admitted by the gap between bottom of the headrail and the top slat. The bottom of the headrail is exposed because the valence does not extend far enough below the headrail. This gives the assembly a particularly cheap appearance, not visible in the HD picture and the gap allows reflected light from the bottom of the headrail to be visible at the top of the window. The "valence return clips" are plastic dressings that did not match up well colorwise to the woody valence. My take-away from the experience: I can't depend on Home Depot's advertising to accurately reflect what the product looks like in order to make a purchasing decision.

          Great Product. Same will cost at least 5 times more from a custom blind company
          Have been shopping around for blinds for few months. The average cost to cover fours windows ranged from $800 - $2000. Could not afford it and starting shopping more. Saw blinds in home depot store and tried on window. Looked beautiful. Remaining I ordered online with exact sizes. Quick delivery and easy install. Key is having exact measurements (width). Length can be adjusted easily. I put these blinds up in my living room and it completely changed the ambience.

            Excellent Value
            The 54" size fit perfectly in my 54.25" opening. The middle bracket had to be offset from center since the middle cord pulley mechanism is at the center.

            Very Satisfied!
            Product seems to be well-made. All parts needed for installation are included in the box. The installation manual is helpful but cannot beat the clarity of instructions found in the web, particularly YouTube. The only tricky part is the installation of the crown molding, but once the installer figures out the trick, it becomes straightforward.

            Product is nice
            I like the blinds, however, I wish the valance part was a little wider to cover the gap.

            Easy Installation, Not so easy to shorten . . .
            I installed three sets of these mini blinds. Each set installed quite easily but shortening the blinds was extremely time consuming and sometimes frustrating. The unused slats remove very easy. Cutting the excess cord and putting the bottom piece back together is where I spent the majority of my time. Threading the string through the holes on the bottom piece was tricky. I finally took a drill bit and cleaned the burrs out of each hole and that made the job easier. I am a perfectionist so I spent extra time making sure all of the cords were the same length and that everything pulled evenly. I probably spent two hours on each set but it was worth it in the end.

            it was wider than i expected, but maybe it was my wrong measurement, don’t know. anyway, worked fine for me, i simply installed it outside of the window frame instead of inside.

            Excellent for the price. Easy installation and the better part is the size do not fit because is big you can run to the Homedepot store and their cutting for free.
