Some blinds can be a pain to install. These were very easy. I had the blinds up in about 10 minutes. The size was perfect for our 30-inch window. The blinds also look more expensive than they are. We replaced an older set of metal mini-blinds because they looked dated. These blinds were a worthwhile investment, and we're now looking to add more of these blinds to other windows.UPDATE 8/17/22 I contacted Chicology again explaining that Amazon was no help and that it was unfortunate that the manufacturer could not source a valance. They are sending me a whole new blind without having to return the old one, using the one-year warranty. Very impressed with their customer service. Will buy from this company again.8/15/22 These blinds are a great value. Good, sturdy quality and looks wonderful. UNFORTUNATELY, the valance was not included and there is no way to get a valance without returning the entire blind. I contacted the manufacturer and was told the valance is not a replaceable part. Amazon cannot help me either. Yes, I could return it, but it's already installed and I urgently needed privacy on that window so I'm not going to remove it. It's a shame the manufacturer couldn't be more accommodating.These blinds look phenomenal and are incredibly easy to install… My only “complaint” is that there is not anything covering the top of the blind mechanism and these are at the bottom of a staircaseNot bad. Feels quality and works surprisingly well. Bought a second for the office and a third for the bedroom. Easy install. Measure three times.Tip - I had an opening that was 58.5in and happily found they made one for my size. Ordered and went to install - didn't fit. Why? I never accounted for the size of the mounting hardware. Add a 1/2in or mount outside and above the frame.I absolutely LOVE these blinds! They were easy to install and look fabulous! I was having difficulty finding the correct width of blinds for a few windows, but with so many options of different sizes, I found the exact size I needed! I mounted them on the inside of the window frame and they fit perfect. Another perk, there is no cord to mess with! I’m extremely picky and these surpassed my expectations by far! They are very high quality and I plan on replacing my remaining window treatments with these blinds.Easy to install. Work well. Fit the odd window size perfectlyNothing worse than cheap blinds that wrinkles and crinkle with the first "peek".I have dogs and their noses can be rough on other blinds. I love the sturdiness. Easy up hardware!I love these blinds, especially for the price. They work flawlessly and install easily.Blind goes up well. Was the right fit for the measurements I gave and mechanisms seem to work well. The only thing I don't like is the twister wand is diffrent sizes depending on the size you buy but they were all for the same window just 3 separate blinds and now the wands are diffrent lengths and look silly beside one anotherThe blinds look great in the windows at our cottage and are just what we wanted. We knew we would have to shorten them, but wanted good quality blinds so expected to do this. My husband said it would help if specific shortening instructions had been included. He found instructions online, but would have appreciated not having to search.Had these maybe 2 monthes and they have already begun to click when I open and close them and i have to manually help the one close. And I have no kids and no pets to mess around with them. This is just everyday normal open and closingGood price ! I bought just 1 for my living room window. I liked it enough to get 3 more to finish the front window. The price was right ! Very nice ! Plain, no wood grain, but that doesn’t matter to me. Select the size you need, no cutting !I like this product because it’s easy to install and the value for my money but not sure with the durability. The main issue is the shipping. The product arrived broken as seen on pictures and took too long to arrive.
