I bought three of them (48 x 64) for the living room windows. They're light weight, right price (sort of...), and right color (not grey, kind of earth tone colors - natural and good match for white windows: lighter than "Sahara - Home Decorators Collections",). Trimming the width wasn't easy but wasn't super difficult, neither. I'm very satisfied with overall looks and performance, so far. I firmly pressed them a little longer than the instruction said. Most of all, they give what I need: "The energy efficient honeycomb fabric softly filters light, while providing privacy and UV protection."

Doesn't stick
This is the second time I've ordered this same product. I believed the first time it was a fluke...maybe a defective batch. However, these don't stick in my windows for more than an hour. The surface was prepped per the instructions too.

French Door - Cellular Shade. No drilling or mounting hardware needed!!
Installed these on my new French Doors. These are great since you do not need to drill any holes or install any mounting hardware. For the price, the quality of the blinds is good, time will show how well the cordless hardware holds up. Cutting the blinds was fairly easy with the final result being as good as if it was cut in the store, you need to make sure you follow the instructions and use a very sharp knife.

Simple, Easy, Affordable & Attractive
This is one of the best kept secrets in window shades. Absolutely love it! Easy to install and it stays attached if you follow the directions. I purchased 4 of them a year ago and they are still going strong. Just bought four more. Would love to see more colors and sizes.

Great value
I only ordered one of these to see what they are like but will definitely order them for all bedroom windows. They are insulating and attractive and look sleek on their own or will look great with other window treatments. Delighted with this deal.

Love my Easy Life Trim-at-Home Cellular Shades
Very happy with my purchase. I do wish Home Depot offered to cut these shades as, being a senior American, it was a bit more difficult than I expected.

paper cheap
Made cheap. Look cheap. Not cheap price. Big piece of plastic that doesn't come off along the bottom. Hideous. Box bent up and the shade had a kink in the middle. Now I have to drive 80 miles to return them.

Easy, Easy, Easy
Really like how easy these were to cut and install. Went up in minutes and look a lot better then cheap plastic blinds. Plus really does work well for keeping heat out from the sun. We got them for a bedroom and are going to get more for other rooms now. Make sure you clean the surface and let it dry before installing.

Looks great, cordless works but cheaply made
Looks great, cordless works but cheaply made. I was able to cut it to length using my Henckles bread knife. A hack saw would probably work too. The cuts end could look nicer if the manufacturer provided end caps but did not. After 3 days of hanging, the adhesive failed as other reviewers have noted but was able to rehang it using a bead of caulk and what was left of the original tape stickiness. Once the caulk dried, the blinds are staying up there pretty well.

Didn't stick for long.
I bought nine of these things for a sun porch.
I tried to be careful to make sure the wall where the shades would be stuck (in the frame above the window) was super-clean. But still, although they stuck at first, after a week, all but one fell off. I'm not sure what to do next. I can't really screw them in, so I bought some new sticky tape to try to stick them up again.
Some of them also separated from the top piece -- rather than coming apart from the wall, the top piece stuck and the rest of the shade broke away from the top piece.
Overall, the sticky tape / glue didn't hold.
The cutting part was really no problem. They cut with a utility knife fine.

Easy to customize, looks great!
very easy to put up....make sure you use a sharp blade though, as a duller knife might make uneven cuts! Love the blinds - they stick right onto the window, and stay up!

Super Cheap
You tape these blinds to the top of your window frame...that should be enough information for you. These might be good if you are in need of a temporary solution, but these won't last very long. I would spend the extra 15-30 bucks to get a better quality product. Ours was also damaged when we got it, but we weren't going to hang it up anyway due to the quality, so it went back to the store.

Perfect for my laundry room window.
I bought the natural colored cellular cordless shade for my laundry room. Wanted to see the dfifference between the natural color and the white shades I also purchased for my family kitchen windows. The natural color softens the feel of the laundry room.

Just what I wanted.
The product works exactly as I wanted, privacy with light, but I was dimayed to find after installing it that it was not long enough for the window even though I am sure I checked the measurements when ordering. Cutting it to width was a bit tricky but with the help of very sharp knife, cutting board & my husband holding the opposite end I did it. If you are not good with sharp tools this product is not for you.

Easy to install looks good
I love these shades no tiny screws and nails- replacing some corded ones with these cordless because the cat shredded the cord. These have been hanging in my home since 2008 only two out of 14 had trouble sticking I may not have let the surface dry after cleaning..

read the description
These use double-sided tape for mounting and won't work if your windows aren't recessed into the wall. Mine must be mounted to the window casing since the windows are flush with the inside walls. I also don't like the lack of a solid upper mounting piece. The material of the shade is simply taped to the upper portion of the window opening. This wouldn't be visible if you have drapes or a valence to cover the top portion of the window. These are going back to HD tonight.

Love 'em !
Bought 10 of these & am very happy with them up on the windows. A bit of a challenge to 'trim' them tho...not as easy as described.

Piece of junk. Installed the shade and within a day it fell down.
Product indicates that it is a permanent peel and stick and after the first day it fell down. I reinstalled it and it fell down again. It continued to do this for a week until the sticky part fell on a piece of paper. At that time it did permanently stick so I just put it in the trash. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT UNLESS YOU WANT TO PUT YOUR MONEY IN THE TRASH ALONG WITH THE SHADE.

Too good to be true?
I bought two of these blinds for my front window in a rental home. They looked great and for the first week or so worked perfectly. After a couple of weeks, one of them would only lift about halfway, but I decided "you get what you pay for." After another two weeks that blind wouldn't lift at all and the other was down to halfway. The "easy lift" part of these blinds had gone away. They were no lift blinds. I returned them and spent more money on some blinds that will actually open and let light in...:)

Great
I have eight windows in my living/dinning room, and it is an
old house and all of the dimensions are different. These shades are perfect as you can cut to fit. They are easy to pull down and look very nice.
