Customer Reviews for VELUX Solar Powered Room Darkening Green Skylight Blinds for VS C04, VSS C04 and VSE C04 Models

Easy and Quality

Well designed blind fit specifically to certain model of Velux skylight. However, I do agree with other reviewers' comment about the installation instruction is hard to understand. I believe a video instruction will help to resolve the issue.

This blind helps cut down the glare we had before insulation as well as the heat, so we are pretty happy we can now use our kitchen midday. Installation was fairly easy, there were no directions in one section so we called Velux and they emailed them right away, that was excellent. The instructions are OK, but they take a bit of thought to wrap your mind around because there are no words. Once you get into the mind of Velux, it's all good. Everything fit as predicted, no issues. no complaints.

Work great. Easy to install. Real improvement in room temp in my attic loft.

Fits on my old Velux skylight

Pretty easy to self install.Works as advertised. Meets all expectations.A bit more expensive for the functionality it provides.

outstanding quality, works flawlessly, and installation was not at all difficult

We have used them for years but now have a battery issue with one of them. How and where do I find replacements for 833442?

Velux sales support recommended wrong size for my window (my units are older without tag) and units is very difficult to assemble.

Blind fits our Velux window perfectly and is exactly what we were looking for. Easy install. No complaints.

Good quality. Easy to install after watching install video on Website.

Pretty darn cool

This blind was fairly easy to assemble. The quality is very good but let’s a little light in on the sides between the blind and the metal. Overall I like it.

Amazing room blocking shade!!!

Easy to install Looks nice Easy to operate Fits well inside the opening

Some assembly required should stand out in the manufacturer's description. If you are an engineer or mechanic (I am both), you may be able to install this, but you will need at least that experience level. I could NOT follow the pictogram assembly instructions, with the many 'click' words printed next to many illustration pages. NOTHING 'clicked' together for me. I defy Home Depot to send an untrained clerk to my house to prove it is possible to assemble this thing using that minimal assembly pamphlet. I had to provide my own longer drywall screws to mount the frame to the skylight opening, after taping the thing together at ground level. Working at a 10 foot high ceiling skylight. I was able to 'mount' the unit using my own hardware. So be warned; some real innovative assembly required.

10/10Easy to install, exactly what we wanted

poor instructions for installing skylight window blind, disappointed that window is no longer made with the aluminum on one side which helps deflect the sun in summer months.

A bit confusing at first, but well worth the effort.

Installation was a piece of cake. Love the way it works and is a huge step above the prior Velux shades I had years ago.

The Velux solar powered shades are great. Not only do they open and close well they do a great job of darkening the room. I highly recommend them.

Arrived in good condition. Easy to install. Have not used it yet.

Perfect fit easy installation
