Better Homes & Gardens 2" Faux Wood Cordless Blinds, White

We were not given the option to order a valence with a partial return on the sides. Thus we can see the edge the metal mounting bracket. I thought we would be getting a wand, but perhaps I ordered wrong. We have an older house built in the 60’s with 4″ stud exterior walls. These are too thin for a completely recessed blind, so we have them semi-recessed as I’m sure many folks do.

Ordered 2 blinds for our pretty large great room windows 43 x 103”. One was packed tight, keeping the blind inside from moving during shipment. The other not so much, the blind was loose and easily moved around inside the box.

I do not drill into expensive window framing. Hardware and instructions included for multiple mounting options, including inside and outside mounts. Easy installation, just few minutes to complete.

Contoured slats are engineered to resist cracking, staining, or peeling even in high humidity areas or rooms with direct sunlight. I ordered one vinyl vertical blind to replace one of the fabric blinds. Looks nice and I think that appears to be well made. We had wood blinds installed in our very traditional home 47 years ago. They were showing their age and we dreaded the process of finding good quality replacements. We measured the windows, selected a color.

The blinds were well packaged, all items including hanger and valance hardware was present. The hangers are extremely beefy and heavy duty compared to the old ones we removed. I bought from this vendor because I was having a hard time finding the right size for a reasonable price.

These are pretty heavy, given the length, but the installation went well. Once up, the corded tilt is easy to use and a nice improvement over our 25 year old blinds that never worked quite right. These blinds are great – the sizes I needed were readily available and I did not have to have them custom made to fit my bay window.

I installed 5 of these 2 inch Cordless Blinds in a guest room over my garage for about the same cost of ONE Hunter Douglas Blind installed in my main house. The only reason I didn’t go this route for the house is because of the numerous bay windows that required custom size narrow widths. LUMI Cord-free Zebra Blinds features a double layered, 100% Polyester blackout design.

Mounting hardware included for inside or outside mount as desired. Sold as individual panels measuring 48 inch width by 72 inch length. Measure carefully before selecting your desired size and quantity. Installation was easy with the traditional metal side brackets, EXCEPT the screws they provide seemed inadequate even going into just plain wood frames. I ended up using short drywall screws which grabbed the wood easily and held well.

For maximum light and privacy control, rotate the slats downward to ensure proper closure. They came without packaging and one was damaged in shipping. The replacement was shipped in a massive box. Overall, I like the blinds, but I would not buy them online again.

The quality, look and overall style along with the ease of installation made this purchase well worth it! We needed a lot of window coverings but would not rethink our purchase from anywhere else! The Richfield Studios 2-Inch Cordless Faux Wood Blind brings a clean, classic look to your windows. The cord-free design eliminates messy cords and provides a safer environment for homes with children and pets. The fabric vertical blinds with the inserted white vanes look really good so much so that we started with two sets and have just ordered a third set.

I purchased 4 sets of the white blinds for my office. They look great and were half the price of others I looked at. They squeak when you open and close them and are tricky to adjust evenly but they do the job of creating the privacy I was looking for and look really nice. An affordable alternative to real wood at a fraction of the cost. Faux wood blinds are an ideal window covering product for high humidity areas like bathrooms, basements or kitchens.

When it comes to garage windows, blinds can be a great way to keep out unwanted light, heat, and UV rays. They can also provide privacy and help to reduce glare on screens. After researching and pricing of vertical blinds retailers, I decided on buying from blindsgalore. They had the best price on non-standard sized blinds with the features I needed. Shipping was fast for the “custom” ordered sizing and the over-sized shipping surcharge was less than the other retailers.

And make sure the front edge doesn’t come off the bracket while you are trying to push the back side in to click! I had to get a stepladder to stand on to install this as holding it above my head and trying to get it to click was impossible for me. And lifting this 59″ blind is hard for me. But what made it very difficult is the bracket system the blind sits on. It’s not your typical blind bracket that you can rest the blind on once you lift it. At A Better Blind, you have your choice of an array of colors and smooth or embossed finishes to choose from.

DFHSA7272. Despise the hardware installation and the cordless lift that never works!!!! Despise isn’t even a strong enough word. I will never ever ever ever buy these blinds again!!. Layer these shades with your favorite Eclipse curtain for a more coordinated look.

These blinds were super easy to install, the cordless feature is a plus for my babies room, and are darkening enough for my likings. The cordless 1-in room darkening blinds are perfect for rooms where light control is needed. These blinds are a great choice for any room and style. The operating cords seem too thin for the size of the blinds. Choose Bali 2 1/2″ Composite Blinds to bring an elegant, upscale look that mimics shutters to your windows. Select from a number of colors perfect for matching wood décor or standard paints.
